Annual Well Woman Exam

I really like Dr. Kurtz - I appreciate her seeming skill as well as her warmth and friendliness. She was late getting to me, and I had booked myself two afternoon appointments, so I didn't have a lot of time to wait. So the appointment was more abrupt than I would've liked, but that's life....

Salpingectomy

I left the office feeling even more confident about my decision than when I came in. Dr. Kurtz did not once question my decision in wanting a salpingectomy. My fear was that as a young(ish) women with no children, without trying other birth control methods I would be dissuaded from the procedure. Instead, I was met with complete understanding, a spread of my options, and no questions about my personal decision for permanent pregnancy prevention. I would recommend Dr. Kurtz to anyone considering the same path.
