February 11, 2016Derly S.Verified patient
Dr. Jurkowich is knowledgeable, patient, and attentive, answering questions I had about my injury and explaining medical jargon when I indicated I didn't understand what he was talking about. When he mentioned he wouldn't be able to see me again for a follow-up visit, he worked to find a suitable replacement within my network. The wait is quite long even with an appointment so I'd bring a book and some music.

AMAZING doctor! Very attentive...I'd definitely would recommend him to others whom are in pain. He's very patient and LISTENS TO WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY! very happy and can't wait to get on the path to being pain free!
December 17, 2015Jeremiah W.Verified patient
I felt he listened, was easy to talk to, and provided holistic solutions to my problems. He checked my neck and said that there are a lot of knots in my neck and shoulders. He said it is probably just a muscular issue but that he would order and x-ray to make sure there's nothing wrong with any of the disks. I really wanted to get an x-ray to ease my mind as I have bad pain in my neck. So I was glad he wrote me a script for that and also a script for a topical muscle relaxer for my neck which I didn't even know was a thing but am glad as oral muscle relaxers make me groggy and affect the whole body. He also wrote me a script for physical therapy twice a week for the next month and a half and scheduled me for follow up on my x-ray and progress in three weeks. I feel like he provided holistic short, mid, and long term solutions for me and was friendly in general. The only issue I had was the wait time which was over an hour.
January 11, 2016Christie M.Verified patient
very good mannered and caring .
December 22, 2015Marc S.Verified patient
Met with him for 10 minutes, charged me a lot just to refer me to someone for x-rays. Never received my x-ray results, then refused to provide diagnosis or treatment without another appointment.
January 21, 2016Initials hidden
After listening to my history of my pain, the cause and past treatments, for my follow-up he wants to see test results of MRI, X-rays and neurological test before making a complete diagnosis. I think I found the right doctor.
November 13, 2015Natalie H.Verified patient
He is effective and very personabl; like a hip Doogie Howser. I have been to him 3 or 4 times now and will be going in 4 weeks for a follow up. I am very particular when it comes to who treats me and I, with my high standards, am very satisfied thus far.
November 19, 2015Latoya V.Verified patient
I injured my back over the Thanksgiving holiday and was getting some very uncomfortable pain that I felt needed a medical experts diagnosis. I read Dr. Jurkowich's reviews and looked up his certifications and he seemed like he would be the right person for me to see. He patiently listened to me describe my symptoms and gave me both helpful follow steps (which I am in the process of booking) in addition to making a couple of natural medicine suggestions (tumeric tablets). I will be following up with him in the next week or two and feel like my needs have been properly addressed in this first meeting.

TI am hoping to find a pain management Dr. That write medication, all tha other shooting stuff in my bac and surgery is for Ginipigs! I have had with this BS. Everyone wants to experiment on people! That method doesn't do anything but causes more pain so the patient can keep coming back.
September 28, 2015Andrew S.Verified patient
This doctor truly cares about his patients. He takes the time to really understand his patients needs. This doctor has been a tremendous help in my life and has really saved me from surgery. Not only that he is quick wait only a few minutes if your on time. This doctor is a role model that other docs should follow.

The wait time was a bit longer than I had hoped, but it was worth the wait. I felt comfortable with the doctor after just meeting him. We got right down to business without any rudeness or awkwardness. and we established a care plan. Basically, I was asked questions, examined and we made an action plan; everything a good Dr's visit should be.
