I went in for an IUD removal, and it was the worst medical experience of my life. Dr. Hurst couldn't find the IUD, and kept moving further and further into my cervix, causing me some of the worst pain I've ever felt. I sobbed though the whole procedure, and he never succeeded in removing it. I was left to change back into my clothes with bloody instruments out on the counter, and nothing to wipe up my also bloody self. I was not given a pad, and so I bled into my clothes through the ultrasound to find the IUD. Dr. Hurst told me I could come back in a couple weeks, and he would "try again", with no game plan on how it would actually work next time. I've loved Dr. Hurst in the past, but I will NOT be returning after this. I left hysterical and traumatized.

I honestly have genuine concerns about Dr. Hurst's ability to assess and treat gynecological issues. I've heard he's a great OB, but when I went in for a myoma tumor and lower-abdominal pain, he was not helpful, and had I stayed with him, I would have gotten much worse. I was on a service mission in Ukraine when I started having what I thought was just painful ovulation, but when I went in for an ultrasound, they found a myoma tumor. I came home and scheduled an appointment with Dr. Hurst, as I'd never been to an OB/GYN before, and my sisters loved him when he delivered their babies. When I went in, he asked me a few questions, told me it couldn't be endometriosis because my periods were normal, and told me to set up an appointment at the hospital for an ultrasound. A few days after my ultrasound, Dr. Hurst's assistant called to say that my results looked fine, and was surprised when I asked to come in to see him again.

I honestly have genuine concerns about Dr. Hurst's ability to assess and treat gynecological issues. I've heard he's a great OB, but when I went in for a myoma tumor and lower-abdominal pain, he was not helpful, and had I stayed with him, I would have gotten much worse. I was on a service mission in Ukraine when I started having what I thought was just painful ovulation, but when I went in for an ultrasound, they found a myoma tumor. I came home and scheduled an appointment with Dr. Hurst, as I'd never been to an OB/GYN before, and my sisters loved him when he delivered their babies. When I went in, he asked me a few questions, told me it couldn't be endometriosis because my periods were normal, and told me to set up an appointment at the hospital for an ultrasound. A few days after my ultrasound, Dr. Hurst's assistant called to say that my results looked fine, and was surprised when I asked to come in to see him again. At my next appointment, the first thing Dr. Hurst said was, "So, the pain didn't go away when you heard the results of the ultrasound?" I know that sounds like he was joking, but through the course of our conversation, I realized he thought I was having psychosomatic symptoms as an excuse to come home from my mission early. He didn't do any other tests, but prescribed birth control for three months just to see how I did. After about 6 weeks on the birth control, the pain was worse than ever, and I knew I couldn't wait another 6 weeks. I did NOT want to go back to Dr. Hurst, so I researched other OB/GYNs in the area, and found a fantastic one. During my first appointment with the new doctor, he did the ultrasound himself, and the first thing he said was, "See the thickening of the uterine wall? That's most likely an indication of endometriosis," which was exactly what Dr. Hurst said it couldn't be. He also found the myoma tumor the tech at the hospital apparently didn't find. Based on those two findings and the level of pain I was in, I was scheduled for surgery within the week. During the surgery, they found both the myoma and endometriosis, as well as cysts on my ovaries and polyps in my fallopian tubes. I've always wanted to take those results back to Dr. Hurst to show him what his lack of concern caused him to miss. He may still be great at delivering babies, but don't call yourself an OB/GYN if you're not willing to actually address the Gynecologist half of your title.

I really wanted to like him and the staff... but I left disappointed every time. I didn't feel like he cared one bit about me. He seemed annoyed when I had questions that would make the office visit longer than 4 minutes. His Ultrasound tech is NOT friendly. Trust me I do NOT need to be coddled. I do need to be listened to and it wouldn't kill for the US tech to crack a smile. I think he is ready to retire and it's evident he is ready. He nice but annoyed, stoic and indifferent.

Dr Hurst has been a wonderful Doctor for me. He's very patient, and calm. When I was delivering my son, the cord was wrapped around his neck twice. Dr Hurst was so calm, and I honestly had no idea that there was any danger, because of how he reacted. He's absolutely wonderful!

Dr Hurst is an amazing Physician in the delivery room, exam room and in surgery, as I have witnessed and experienced all of these. Not only as a patient but as a physician to work with. I have worked with many Drs and when it came time to choose my own personal Dr it was a no brainer. I HIGHLY recomend him.
