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.

Stay clear of this disrespectful women
She came in and was more worried about my blood pressure and cholesterol than the reason I was there. I had an excruciating ear ache in both ears, she left room to find a scope and came back to say there wasn’t one nor was there a ENT. ( I came to hospital complaining of my ear but they interrupted in ER it could of been a stroke and there were 2 Ct scans done and admitted to rule this out) after the first night the dr saw me and was thoroughly examining me in room and going over BP and LDL That day at 430 neurologist released me from care , clearing me of not having stroke but I couldn’t be released without this dr releasing me. Had awful night in hospital not this dr problem in am I asked to leave and if it had to be without dr approval then so be it. When dr arrived she walked in said so your pt that can’t wait to leave I said correct so she said then goodbye and get out. And left the room. Nurse apologized saying she was always like that not to take personal. That is not good. 0no1

Rude and uncaring attitude. Disrespectful, interrupts constantly and will literally turn her back on you and walk out when your are two words in to a single response. My hospital nurses and nurse leader all said she does same to them.

This Dr diagnosis you with everything from Diabetes to Kidney disease, but once you quit going and find a REAL DR you really find out you don't have all the diagnoses that Nino Kurtsikidze put on you and she is so disrespectful towards me and my LGBT COMMUNITY,singles me out,because I'm in an interracial relationship. My personal life has nothing to do with my health problems and none of her buisness!

I recently had iron infusions as a result of critically low blood work. After the infusions I was still feeling weak had repeat labs however I never received a call from Dr. Nino's relating to lab results. I felt the need to follow up with another practice as DR. Nino's office never returned my calls. I picked up copies of subsequent labs, brought them to my new Dr., it was determined I needed further treatment the same day. Second account in matter of days need for immediate care missed by Dr

She is one of the most caring doctors I have ever had in a very long time. She takes her time to listen, does research right there for you to make you feel comfortable. She doesn't just give you bunch of unnecessary tests or medication. Office staff is very polite and prompt about responding back.

Dr.Nino was rude and insensitive to my mother. She discharged her from the hospital with so much medicine and no instructions. When I brought her in because of side effects of the medicine, she asked why she was taking it. When I replied that she prescribed it, she got defensive and nasty and started yelling at my mother as if she was a child. I actually had to tell her to stop yelling at my mother! She replied that she was yelling because my mother can't hear..my mother can hear fine!

Although the office staff is amazing the nursing as well as the doctor staff left a lot to be desired. I understand things happen but when the doctor is 2 hours late to the appointment she set then appoints like I'm the inconvenience that's where the line is drawn. Never again will I use professional health care or Dr nino again.

Dr Kurtsikidze is a caring, extremely competent physician. Although I am no longer her patient because my insurance will not cover her and I have moved, I have not found a physician as good as her since. She insisted I go to the hospital for a heart problem that I swore I didn't have and I did and she was right. She also tried to convince me to get a bypass which I refused to do. Two years later I got that bypass and had I listened would have not had extra years of suffering.

An unfortunate experience. Gave wrong instructions for patient care. Overridden by a pulmonilogist second opinion. Nino fought allowing the second opinion. Patient was discharged extremely dehydrated. Ended up back in another hospital after two hours at home.

Dr. Kurtsikidze is a respectable woman. Straight forward and passionate. My first time meeting meeting her was bedside in the hospital when I was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. Not understanding which way to go, Dr. Kurtsikidze was able to professionally breakdown how my body was feeling and what to expect next. I decided to adopt her as my primary and it's the best care that I've have ever had.. I changed my insurance just to ensure I have her.. I recommend her!

If you're looking for someone to help with a diagnosis or planning treatment, don't waste your time here. I saw Dr Nino for the first time today, she got defensive when I told her my injury from over a year ago wasn't a broken bone (She kept referring to injury as 'Fracture', which it was not) She has poor etiquette, and she got very aggressive for a medical professional. She told me 'She's not obligated to help me, since this is my first visit', and I couldn't speak without being interrupted.
