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.

The lady that was with me during the stress test seemed to have a bad additude. I was telling her about my issue and she gave me kind of like a 'yeah whatever' feeling. I felt like she didn't believe me about what I was saying. And I also felt like she didn't care to make knowledge of what I was saying to her about my issue either.

Never been happier with a Doctor
This review is long overdue. Doctor Curkovic is blessed with a great staff and he is the tip of the spear! His quick assessment of my potential blockage was spot on. He connected me to the best team to do my cath and I have been blessed with great health since. He does not jump to conclusions quickly unless he truly sees a need to move sooner than later. He is able to make things happen and I rarely have a wait time when seeing him. Very thankful to have been under his care for the past ten years!

NO
I had a pacemaker implant. Several weeks after the procedure I was at home and began to experience chest pains. I called his office could not reach him so left a message. Several hours later I called again. Again no response. I then went to the hospital and admitted myself to receive help. To date I have never gotten a return phone call. Yes I filed a complaint about him to my health care insurance company.

Dr. Curkovic was amazing during my first visit. After completing my stress test he immediately recommended performing an E-Cardogram and the result was normal. Since I suffer from hypertension he suggested a new medication which immediately brought my blood pressure back to normal. He also educated me on the proper nutritional diet needed to keep my weight and blood pressure normal. Excellent Physician and I highly recommend him. Thanks Doctor!

Excellent cardiologist. Super bust guy with a big patient load but his cardiology skills are excellent and I trust everything he tells me. He always has an APRN following him around for the paperwork and orders but that's ok. He makes the decisions.

I have never had a worst experience with a physician. I went to a hospital with a medical event He was the onsite physician for my possible issue. He was overbearing, talked over me , ignored my explanation of my symptoms. He was directive, telling me what WAS going to happen . I decided not to be exposed to him any longer and checked myself out of the hospital within the hour. I'm sorry I gave him even a one star rating. Currently looking for a new hospital if I have another emergency.

This doctor has been totally disrespectful to my 83 year old mother. He always treats her as if she is a burden to him. He does not go over tests results with her or pays attention to what she has to say and shrugs off any concerns she has. No bedside manner at all.
