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 Curiel is the best doctor I have ever had.
Dr Curiel has saved my life more than once. He is very kind, compassionate and cares about his patients. I was having difficulty breathing, and also have CHF. The breathing issues continued to get worse. Dr. Curiel was very thorough and ran multiple tests that found I had a blood clot in the artery that runs between my heart and lung. After finding the problem, the treatment plan was established and the blood clot dissolved. In the process of the blood clot dissolving, Dr Curiel followed up multiple times with me to ensure everything was moving in the right direction.

I tore two tendons in my shoulder and one of my biceps and I ended up having rotator cuff surgery and bicep tedious and Dr curiel has guided me through the whole process from my surgery to my horrible experience with Dr Bradley Scott in ottumwa Iowa to my referred surgeon Dr Ash, who was a fantastic orthopedic surgeon but lacked compassion and understanding he was like a robot, Dr curiel is a genuine compassionate and and understanding human being let alone doctor he actually listens to what you have to say and let you put your own input in to your own care instead of most doctors that will sit there and listen to you and let it go in one ear and out the other and already have they're plan for you before you even get in there to see them without getting your input or anything into your own care, Dr curiel is the only doctor I will ever see

I have seen Dr. Curiel on more than a few occasions, He is less concerned about the quality of care for his patients and more concerned about the quantity of his patients. After a while, I started timing my visits with him. His time with me from the time he walked into the room to when he released me ranged from 2 minutes to as low as 45 seconds.

  • Appointment was rushed
  • Didn't trust the provider's decisions
