Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr Hurwitz is my hero. About 3 years ago, he suspected I had a rare autoimmune disease. After all the testing, it was confirmed that he was right. After 18 months of not knowing what was wrong with me, it was good to finally have the correct name for it. I would take him home to my state if I could. Nice bed manner and smart Dr. Unfortunately, so many people are moving to Florida, it is difficult for doctors and nurses because there aren’t enough of them. I highly recommend Dr. Kurwitz

I saw his assistant for about 30 minutes and found him to be very impatient in listening to my well prepared information. He then left and then came back with Dr Hurwitz who I saw for about 7 minutes and offered nothing of value-I do not recommend him

Dr. Hurwitz is ahead of the curve when it comes to lung issues. He has been steadfast in his desire to resolve my issues and provided the kind of care that I would expect from a major medical center such as Mayo or JMC in Denver without the need to travel and uproot my life here. So thankful I found him!

Dr. Hurwitz is terrific. I am an orthopedic doctor and work at the same hospital he does so I picked him to be my doctor because he is the best. I saw him for chronic cough.which he diagnosed as reflux but he is also checking me for exercise induced asthma. He was very thorough and personable and professional.
