As a patient of Dr. Kurra for 6 or 7 years, I can't imagine anyone giving her less than a full "5-star" rating...unless, of course, they could give her 10 stars! She's the doctor I'd always hoped for but never found. She listens intently, often probing deeper into a topic you've mentioned, takes notes...and actually REVIEWS those notes before your next visit! When you call with a question, you get a prompt reply. Everyone adores her, and if you need her specialties, so will you!

Dr kurra listens, takes notes and asks follow up questions, doesn't rush. I highly recommend her but... Office staff did nothing to schedule scans ordered until I called 5 days after my visit. They blamed my insurance. My insurance verified the date and time authorization was put in, had processed and were waiting for a peer discussion with my dr to proceed so at no time were they the delay. Had to cancel follow up cause I'm still waiting for my scans. Office manager didn't respond to my message
