Dr. Sawyer treated my daughter during a scary time. He was so patient and caring. He took the time to thoroughly assess and immediately treat her. Best pediatric Orthopedist!

Review for Dr. Sawyer

Very demeaning & unprofessional. Tore me down instead of helping. Refused to listen just came up with his own opinion on me even though he never met me before.

Review for Dr. Burnett

My daughter has seen Dr. Sawyer for the past 3 years for scoliosis. He is the best. We never feel rushed. He takes a seat and makes us feel like we are family. Any questions we have, he is more than willing to answer. Thank goodness my daughter has not required surgery, but I would completely trust...
