Dr. Curtis is great. He's a doctor who wants to find out why you're not feeling well and try to help you feel better. It's nice to have a doctor who cares about his patients well-being. He also takes time to ask you questions and explain things to you in a kind manner. I definitely recommend him! Plus, his staff is very friendly too.
