Have been taking our girls to Dr Curtis for 17 1/2 years now - they love her. My oldest will be 18 soon, still wants to see Dr Curtis when she doesn't feel well. During cold/flu seasons, the wait is somtimes longer than usual - but what can you do! She takes the time to speak with her patients, is very friendly and offers great advise when needed! Love her!!!

Dr. Curtis is an amazing pediatrician, so smart and caring and experienced!. We see two other excellent pediatricians on a regular basis because I work in Europe part of the year. But no other doctor matches the peace of mind that you get after Dr. Curtis gives you a diagnosis and treatment because she is always right and effective. Better yet, God forbid your kid has something really serious, this is the doctor to see!

I have been with Dr. Curtis for 15 years and I have taken my 5 children to her. She has made 2 amazing diagnosis that have literally saved my child's life. Even the other doctors at the hospital told me it was a GREAT catch. With minor things she seem to always give me the time & energy I need and I love that she continues to see my kids through her Adolecent Medicine Services. I live over 30 miles away and have continued to see Dr. Curtis for the excellent care I recieve.

Overall experience at this office is moderate. The waiting time is some time can be as long as 40 minutes. Staff show no sympathy when you have to wait for that long. Yet if you get there 20 minutes late, the staff doesn't let you see the doctor that day. Dr. Curtis is okay. She seems to give accurate diagnosis. Staff seems to be annoyed when you try to have schedule with only dr. Curtis but not with the other doctor.
