I had been dealing with a recurring urinary tract infection for several years and with several doctors and was getting very frustrated. The first time I visited Dr Durtschi and explained my problem he arranged for several test to identify what was causing this to happen and then prescribed a course of medication which has stopped the infection from occurring. I highly recommend him.
