Reviews

Dr. Hurwitz was the 3rd GI doctor I’ve seen & he was the first to show me compassion. He took his time to listen to me & review my medical records, from the previous doctors, with me. He asked me questions & took notes as I spoke. He made eye contact - unfortunately this is rare these days with doctors. For the first time I felt heard & cared for. He was honest & treated me like a human being - not just another dollar sign to rack up my insurance. I live an hour south of Dr. Hurwitz’s office & he was well worth the drive. If you need a GI that shows you compassion & takes time to listen to you - go see Dr. Hurwitz in Wellington!

my experience with Lyle Hurwitz MD was fantastic. He is very professional, and diagnosed my condition immediately upon completion of the procedures. I was healed with medicine prescribed by him. Upon completion of the medication I was 100% normal again. I highly recommend them
