Would HIGHLY NOT recommend this doctors office. The receptionist is always very rude and has the worst attitude if you need any help or answers. Always Ignores patients and answers the phone while speaking to you. Went there multiple times and regretted each time. She should not be interacting with individuals. The doctor is friendly.

Dr. Kurta has been our family doctor for many many years. We all love going to him and there is never a long wait! He has taken wonderful care of my father in law who has unfortunately not been well. I highly recommend Dr. Kurta.

We've been seeing Dr. Kurta for over 20 years. He has always been extremely responsive to our needs. It's easy to make an appointment which fits our schedule. We've never felt rushed. His referrals, when necessary, have been excellent.

I went to Kurta for routine blood work two days ago i had never been to this doctor before , he had assured me that he was following all safety protocols , after taking the blood from my arm he disposed of the needle but then i had noticed him place the Vacutainer which could of been contaminated back on the table . I had then asked him why he was not also discarding this tube that the needle is screwed into and he informed me that he reuses the Vacutainer from patient to patient , he had put me and he is putting all of his patients at risk for getting blood transmitted diseases like HIV and hepatitis C and god only knows what else!!! if you have seen this doctor before and he has drawn blood please get yourself tested for HIV and other blood transmitted diseases, people out there I am dead serious! There is a risk here and he just does not seem to care be very careful stay away, if you value your health.

Dr. Kurta is the WORST doctor EVER!!! If you want to see a real doctor that will help you, guide you, and give you a correct diagnosis then he is NOT the doctor for you

He is a Doctor you can trust. I have been with him for over ten years and was treated with respect and privacy. If he can't help, he will know someone that can.

Dr Kurta and his staff are wonderful. My family and friends all see him and love him. He is very courteous and knowledgable. You never have to wait long for an appt and there is never a long wait time in his office. He definitely makes you feel at home and is a caring Dr which has become hard to find. I would absolutely recommend Dr Kurta!
