At URMC, we believe that patients should be empowered to make the right decisions regarding their personal healthcare. To do so, transparency is critical. URMC partners with Press Ganey, to survey our patients about all aspects of their care experience. We are now putting this pertinent information at your fingertips by displaying star ratings for our providers along with anonymous patient comments on our website.

Dr. Tourtelot embodies all that I want in a physician. She is kind, personable, efficient, knowledgable, genuine, calm, collaborative. I just wish she had been my doctor for years past as I have endured some damaging experiences in contact with a different GYN affiliated with the UR. I feel safe with her.
