Aug 08, 2021
Dr. Odom is a remarkable professional and gentle physician; his kindness and sensitivity compliment his medical skills and seamless approach; that we are each valued human beings sharing our humanity; regardless, of status, education or any difference; other than we are each unique creatures. Dr. Odom is a highly experienced well-educated physician, offering forty some years as both physician and ongoing scholar in several specialized areas; within which his research in Digestive & Hepatic Disorders are well-documented. His immediate and kind bedside manner proves both comforting and reassuring to we patients. he listens intently, asks questions, answers and explains patiently so one never feels rushed. Too, I have heard and noted hospital nursing, doctors and auxillary staff express praise, respect and fondness toward Dr. Odom- including his wonderful and gracious office staff.
