Our Doctors
Douglas C Curtiss,M.D.,FAAP
Originally from Old Lyme, CT, Dr. Curtiss went to college at the University of Pennsylvania, before continuing his studies in Philadelphia at Hahnemann University School of Medicine. He then returned to Connecticut to do his pediatric residency training at Yale. Since completing his pediatric training, Dr. Curtiss has served the families of Connecticut for almost 30 years. Known as “the funny doctor”, Dr Curtiss enjoys using humor to put his patients at ease, as well as employing a down-to-earth style to explain complex medical issues to parents in a way that helps them feel comfortable and in charge of their children’s health. Having been in Ansonia since 2000, Dr. Curtiss has found great satisfaction in watching his patients grow up and now bring their children to see him.
When Dr. Curtiss is not seeing patients, he enjoys spending time with his wife, Lucie, traveling to see his children (one in college in Canada and one in Hollywood), as well as training as a runner (next up - his first half-marathon).
Fun fact about Dr. Curtiss - He appeared as an extra in Stephen Spielberg’s 1975 classic thriller, Jaws.
