Dr. Helfner and Dr. Curro make giving back to the community a priority through various charitable events, such as our annual Hanging with the Heroes fundraiser which in total has raised over $110,000 for the American Cancer Society. We also celebrated our 20th anniversary with Patient Appreciation Day, which was a day filled with fun and laughter spent with our amazing patients. With their impressive background and patient reviews, it is no wonder we have been nominated again!
