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.

My experience with Dr. Wurtz, and her staff was very positive. They showed great concern for my health problems and immediately put me at ease. Dr. Wurtz is down to earth with a great sense of humor while being very professional. I have made a good choice by selecting her as my physician.

Dr Wurtz is a kind, professional and outstanding pulmonologist. She treated me as if I were her only patient, spending time with me to hear all of my questions and concerns. I did not feel like a number or rushed in any way. I am a Covid 19 survivor, I spend 15 days in the hospital, because of Dr Wurtz I am alive and thriving. She saved my life .

I was referred to Dr Wurtz by my PCP because of shortness of breath. The appointment went very well, even having to wait for awhile, maybe thirty minutes or more. she as very courteous and supportive and reassuring. I felt confident I had a good diagnosis when I left the office.

Dr. Wurtz and the office staff are very prompt and professional, yet not hurried or anxious to get to the next patient. Cpap usage report and updated prescriptions were available. Change in Cpap setting was submitted to provider and completed same day. Dr. Wurtz is very thorough and personable.

Many years ago Dr. Wurtz was recommended to me. I was very happy to find her as she listens to my questions and informs me of new findings in the health world that relate to me and helped me with pulmonary issues. The office is always prompt with returning phone calls when I have needed answers. It would be wonderful if she never retires. She will deserve it someday.

If you are in need of a caring Pulmonologist...look no further! Dr. Wurtz is caring and compassionate, she not only listens...but hears your concerns and needs and offers solutions! We have been with Dr. Wurtz for over 18 months and she has done wonders with the treatment plan she has put in place. I would recommend her or any of the doctors in her group. I am thankful to have found her!
