Dr. Turcios has a wonderful bedside manner. My son really enjoys his appointments. Dr. Turcios took immediate action with my son's asthma and quickly got it under control. We have seen great improvement and now need little medication. We highly recommend Dr. Turcios as a pediatric pulmonologist and will continue to use him until our son reaches adulthood. His staff are all very friendly and helpful as well.

My 1 yr. old son was extremely ill for several months. Our pediatrician was horrible and kept telling us "we see it all the time" and kept putting him back on a nebulizer. He was not eating, sleeping, and was vomitting non-stop. He had horrible coughing episodes and even lost two lbs. which at his age is a huge % of his weight. Our pediatrician did not refer us at all to a specialist- we didn't know one existed. Through my mother in-law's dr we found Dr. Tursio. The medicine our ped. gave was not working- his bronchial tubes were severely inflamed. I am forever in debt to Dr. Tursio for helping him/us. During our first visit Dr. Tursio assured me that he would be fine and I broke down in tears - what a weight lifted. After just two days our son was 50% better and within two weeks he was a new child. For the first time in months he was healthy, happy, and flourishing. I come to tears when I think of Dr. Tursio. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO- YOU ARE TRULY A HERO

Dr. Turcios is on the point. I started bringing my daughter to him a couple of years ago. If it weren't for Dr. Turcios and his staff my daughter would still be going through unnecessary treatments and procedures. Dr. Turcios is very caring and generous and help out in ways no other doctors has. Thank you Dr. Turcios for helping my daughter ease her problems and making her better.

Dr. Turcios takes his time with you and makes sure you understand your medications,how to take them and what they are for. He explains the goals he has for your future health as well as were you stand right now. He is one of the most pleasant physicians I have ever met. He truly loves his work and his patients.

Dr. Turcios was very informative about my son's condition. He had great bedside manner and made my (very shy) three year old very comfortable. The staff is very friendly and helpful. I was very pleased by my visit and would recommend his services to any parent.

My daughter was diagnosed with asthma when she was about 4 years of age. At that time, my knowledge of asthma was sufficient, but it wasn't until I met Dr. Turcious is when I realized I had much more to learn. Every visit my daughter had with Dr. Turcious was educational. He made sure I knew about asthma entirely so that I could prevent my daughter from being readmitted to the hospital. He was pleasant and just full of knowledge. I am so blessed that he became her physician. Most physician's will not take the time to listen to all of your questions & concerns. Most, always seem to be in a hurry to get you out of their office to move onto the next patient. Dr. Turcious, however, is the opposite. He is the most caring & pleasant physician I know. I am honored to have met him & honored that my daughter is a patient of one of the most finest pulmonologists around! My daughter has been in good hands from day one and I remain confident that she will continue to be.
