Dr. Eric Kortz, MD

I had liver surgery in 2017. Dr Kurtz never told me I would have drainage tubes. He had a very strange bedside manor. Telling me his wife talked with him about he cuts people for a living.

I had to had a hepatic cyst removed from my liver. Dr. Kortz was suggested as "one of the two best" in Denver for surgery of this nature. He was thorough, kind, and explained everything to ensure I knew what was going on. On the day of surgery, he was told how much pain I was in and how nervous I was and met me at the hospital to ensure I was in good care, and ready to go. He involved my husband in both pre and post-op conversations and I had no complications from the surgery. He was top notch throughout, and I would recommend him, and his office, highly.

Family member is in his care currently. Patient went to the emergency room about pain she was in and had a CT scan then was sent to the main hospital after the emergency room radiology department found that she needed surgery. Dr Kortz never showed up to talk to her until her third day in the hospital and then didn’t want to acknowledge how she was feeling, ie the pain wasn’t going away. She did finally have surgery due to another doctor stating that they would do the surgery and advise if his team was needed if they weren’t going to. Now, Dr. Kortz is unresponsive and nowhere to be found. He couldn’t even bother to meet with the family to advise how surgery had gone, instead sending out a resident to talk. (Incidentally he never bothered to even acknowledge the patient’s family in his brief appearance.). Lack of compassion and care for both his patients and their families and zero reliability. Incredibly unimpressed and looking forward to discharging ASAP. Go see someone else who

I had partial thyroidectomy yesterday. Dr. Kortz did an amazing job. I barely lost any of my voice in which almost every story I read about thyroidectomy said there was almost always a loss of voice. I was of course nervous about this surgery, nervous about cancer and he made me feel so comforted all the way through to the end!

Dr ports performed a whipped operation (pancreas), very complicated and but a few surgeons are qualified with "successful" experience. Results very successful. He took time before and after surgery to discuss procedure. I highly recommend and don't allow an inexperienced surgeon to perform this operation on you!!!

Outstanding physician with skills above reproach. First priority is the safety of the patient. Second priority is superior outcomes. This man goes above and beyond all expectations! No other options for my care!
