I have a long term, very trusting relationship with Dr.Hurteau. He is empathetic and honest and tells the truth about his findings, positive or negative with suggestions to mitigate the negative.
I really feel listened to and taken care of, I am very happy with my care
Dr. Herto and his team, nurse practitioners, are incredible. I would recommend them to everybody all the time. I'm very sensitive and nervous and have a lot of things going on with me and they are always patient, helpful, and I never feel rushed. And I always feel like they actually care about what's going on. It's always timely and just a pleasant experience for something that is not always a fun thing to do.
