Kurt Christopher, MD

I love Dr. Christopher! But I will agree with everyone on here that his staff is below satisfactory. He always seems concerned, never rushed me, always wanted to know as much about my year as possible, and always made me feel comfortable.
But I just called and they said he is no longer practicing!!!
ANYONE KNOW WHERE HE WENT???

I had to take a look at this again. Dr. christopher is great. His front desk staff is what stinks. If you go in knowing that, you will be fine.

I have been a patient of Dr. Christopher for over 14 years. He is a great doctor! When I was pregnant with my twins, I was an emotional wreck. Dr. Christopher was very sensitive to my needs. He was patient and attentive. I named one of the twins after him! He delivered my twins 13 years ago and my 7 year old son. He is thorough and professional. Despite the negative reviews I have read here, I have never had a problem getting him on the phone if I really need to speak with him. His office is clean and has a pleasant, courteous staff.

I really enjoyed my first experience with Dr. Christopher, but it has been downhill ever since. I really like that the phone is always answered before the first ring. Sometimes the staff is very nice on the phone, but more recently they’ve been extremely rude. Sometimes you are seen right away, and sometimes they forget that you’re there. Anyway, I called Dr. Christopher’s office because of a suspected ectopic pregnancy, I knew I might be overreacting, but needed some reassurance. The secretary told me my symptoms were normal and almost hung up on me. I insisted on an appointment. When I saw Dr. Christopher he clearly didn’t remember me and had no idea why I was there. He just started talking about usual pregnancy stuff like everything was going great. I finally had to stop him to explain why I was there. He cut me off. He did an ultrasound. Then he rushed to tell me that I might have a ruptured cyst and I should go to the ER if I get worse. Then he ran out of the room. Did he even check for an ectopic? I had no opportunity to ask him about this cyst, which I know nothing about. The pain continued to get worse. 12 hours later I started blacking out. I went to the ER and had emergency surgery for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy. The ultrasound tech at the ER found it immediately. I went to Dr. Christopher with a ruptured ectopic pregnancy and he did nothing for me. I was bleeding internally and he did nothing. I am so upset with him. In Dr. Christopher’s defense, my surgeon said it was a rare case. Clearly, I could never trust Dr. Christopher with my health again. Also, the rooms are kinda gross and dirty.

If I were only commenting on Dr. Christopher, I would give him a ⁶⁄₅. He has a genuine concern for his patients and was able to diagnose my issue in our first meeting (and I’ve been going to tons of drs who were clueless).
I am rating this a ³⁄₅ because the front desk staff is atrocious.
Expect this:
Ring ring
«hello, can you please hold?»
—7 minutes—
«hello is someone helping you?» «no» «oh ok, can I hold for one sec?»
−−−2−3 minutes—
etc etc
This has happened several times. Absolutely brutal.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Christopher for more than 10 years. I had a female doctor previously and after experiencing a medical emergency and being told that I would have to wait a month to see her, I was referred to Dr.Christopher. He saw me immediately and took care of the problem and I’ve been going to him ever since. He’s very gentle and caring and I am extremely happy with him and would highly recommend him.

I have been a patient of Dr. Christopher for over 15 years, so this review is long overdue. He is a wonderful, caring and compassionate doctor. He delivered my beautiful daughter almost 12 years ago. After her birth, Dr. Christopher provided outstanding care to me when I experienced difficulty with other pregnancies. I would not go anywhere else because I know that I am in good hands with Dr. Christopher.

I switched practices because of him. I was originally seeing Dr. Hedley who is amazing, but was unfortunate to have Dr. Christopher when it came time to deliver. I thought he was rude and had the worst bed side manners.

I actually went to Dr Hedley who was great, but when I delivered Dr Christopher was on call. It was after hours so we went through the messaging service to get a hold of him and we had to call 3 times in order to get him to call back after my water broke… with 30 – 45 minutes between each call! It took him 1.5 hours in total to get back to us and we were already on the way to the hospital because my contractions were so strong and painful. Needless to say, I delivered 15 minutes after getting to the hospital and he never even showed up. The next day he didn’t even apologize — he stopped by my recovery room at 4 PM (no phone call or anything before) and said he «changed his ringer on this phone»… He was rude and arrogant and I would never go to him… Switching practices!

I’ve been seeing Dr. Christopher for around 10 years. He is friendly and very responsive when I call. I love that he is very relax about being a doctor and is very respectful of women’s choices. I would recommend him and any of his two colleagues. There is someone for every personality in his office. The staff is helpful, but like most offices runs a little overwhelmed.

My colleague referred me to Dr. Christopher and although I was apprehensive about going to a male gyno, she raved about him so much that I gave him a shot. I’m glad I listened because he is one of the best doctors I’ve been to. He is young, smart, funny and makes his patients (at least my coworker and I) feel at ease. It’s never difficult to get an appointment when I need one and I’ve never been stuck in the waiting room for more than 10 minutes.
I recommend him to all my friends.
