I have been a patient of Dr. Jurgelsky's now for 31 years. Love her to no end. She has ALWAYS been able to answer any question I have/had before I asked. I am in and out with no problem. Lover her staff as well. My daughter, whom she has delivered herself goes to her also and just delivered her daughter. I recommend to her to everyone I know!

I saw Dr. J today for the first time more than halfway through my pregnancy due to an insurance change. She was more than kind and did not make me feel like just another patient. She let me cry and did not judge me or make me feel like I was wasting her time. She gave me more information and comfort in one appoi

I’m 22 and Dr. J delivered my daughter in 2018 and will now be delivering my other daughter this year. She really makes you feel comfortable. My daughter was a high risk pregnancy and she made sure that her and my maternal medicine dr talked about everything reguarding me. Her staff is amazing. Best OBGYN in the city

After 2 month of waiting for an appointment for my daughter they call for my blue cross coverage that I have had since 2012, Blue cross had a training day so I said I could verify with the company. Got them on the phone and the office staff would not speak to them because if insurance was not verified with blue cross the doctor would make us reschedule. This doctor we never met made us jump hoops. We finally got told the doctor was finishing a procedure and she had to go after. I am worried about my daughter seeing this doctor. The waiting area is old and dirty. The doctor is on her on schedule for her needs, We will find another doctor. The receptionist said the doctor had other plans even after our company verified our insurance. If this helps I am a RN.

I seen Dr. Debbie when I was about 25 years old. She moved from the area so I had to find another doctor. After about 20 years I went back to her office for a Pap smear. I cannot believe that she remembered me that was such a touching experience. She's very thorough and have Great bedside manner's. I would recommend her to all my friends. She's the kind of doctor that you can truly love she's real.
