Patient Reviews
Jul 24, 2024
Dr. Mays has been my parents doctor for many years! He took excellent care of my parents at every visit. He truly cares about his patients. His knowledge and professionalism far exceeded my expectation. I live in MD, and I would fly into town just to take my parents to their appointments. Dr. Mays even shared his concern about me getting my regular eye exams. As a doctor, I just love his chairside mannerisms with patients. My parents are elderly, so naturally, I'm very protective of them. Dr. Mays is just great! His staff is great too. I have no complaints with any of his staff. Everyone has been wonderful. If he decides to relocate the office, I would follow. Sadly, I lost my mom in 2020, but I make sure dad makes every appointment. Thank you Dr. Mays for being such a wonderful doctor to both my parents. Thank your entire staff for your professionalism and kindness.
