Listens, compassionate and skilled. What more could anyone ask for in a physician? I'm an RN and a patient with chronic GI issues. Dr. Kurupath is the best. I feel fortunate to have been referred to him.

I always approach doctors - and any medical interactions - with enormous trepidation. This time was no exception, but I found everyone in the office, including Dr. Kurupath, to be both warm and efficient. That's a difficult balance, but they manage it with grace, and even humor.
