How likely are you to recommend Dr. Byrd?
So I know that this is a weeeee little late to be doing for such a great doctor BUT 6 years ago my then 32 y/o daughter had tongue cancer that was very aggressive. We were sent to Dr. Byrd by her Oncologist & radiation oncologist. She was told by the oncologist that if she did just radiation and chemo that the cancer would be back in 6 months to a year. Dr. Byrd made it very clear to her that if she did the surgery then she would have a much greater chance of it NOT coming back. He explained every single detail to her and how important it was to make a quick decision due to the aggressiveness of her cancer. She chose surgery and LET ME TELL YOU THIS MAN (DOCTOR) GAVE UP A DAY OF HIS TICKETS TO THE GOLF TERMINATE!!!!!!!!!! You DO NOT find doctors now days that will do that!!!!!!!! I am a nurse and this made me so impressed with him that I could not believe it!! He is very kind, caring, & shows compassion. My daughter is still cancer free after 6 years. Thank you Dr. Byrd for everything that you did for us! You are amazing & don't let anyone say any less about you!!
