sometimes it is hard to get an appointment right away because he is really good and therefore in high demand and the office does not overbook appointments so the doctor is not rushed awesome bedside manner, doesn't rush to do additional tests unless he feels it is truely warrented.

Dr. Hurwitz has provided me with excellent medical care and more important to me is his genuine 100% concern for me and my health.
