About Dr. Costacurta

Philosophy of care

I always try to do what is in the best interest of the patient. As my patient, I believe you should help direct your care. I only order testing that I believe will have an impact on the future management your health and any conditions. I believe the patient-doctor relationship is of upmost importance.

Why I entered medicine

I have always enjoyed and had a strong interest in the sciences, and the field of medicine was a natural extension of this. Medicine allows me to help patients both through medicines and procedures as well as emotionally or spiritually. There is great joy in seeing someone recover from an illness and knowing I was a part of that.

Community involvement

I am a member of the Board of Directors of Two Rivers Health and Wellness Foundation. This is a nonprofit foundation dedicated to providing funding to improve the health and well-being of community residents.
