Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great Doctor
Dr. Kurtz was very personable and knowledgeable. He addressed my issue and offered a PRP shot. I decided to get the shot and it was done at this appointment. I didn’t have to reschedule and come back. The nurse was very nice and efficient and the shot was easy. I highly recommend Dr. Kurtz and his staff!

Dr Kurtz evaluated my knee problems & suggested total knee replacement. Of course, not what I wanted to hear, but after our discussion, I am considering. He was not pushy. I have major arthritis so the pain is real. He did a total hip replacement on me over 10 yrs ago, was a total success, no problem since. Kristie, is still his assistant and still very caring!

Awesome!
My husband was worried his knee replacement was a little wobbly. Dr. Kurtz examined him, took X-rays and took his time to explain why his knee feels wobbly and if it really bothers him in the future what simple surgical procedure it would be to tighten it up. Two generations of our family has been TOA patients since 1987

I have pain-free mobility again!
Out of all the people I have talked to about their knee replacement, I have had the best experience! Dr. Kurtz is a miracle worker, and I've felt like I've been in good hands since the beginning. After my right knee was done, I couldn't wait to get my left knee scheduled. Both were a great success!
