Patient Reviews
Apr 21, 2024
The front office staff always set the mood for the rest of the visit & everyone was very helpful as well as respectful. This ambiance followed through to Dr Mays, who was very personable. He definitely has a “tell it like it is” approach” which I appreciate & offers sensible solutions & suggestions. My visit was primarily to get established with a orthopedic as I just moved over from AZ. I will be going back for future care.
