Your trust is our top concern.
We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.
We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.
Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.
All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.
Dr. Laird is truly a Heaven sent doctor! I couldn’t have been more satisfied with the care administered by him. He prayed with me and my family before the surgery, that spoke so much volume! He’s also a very caring and concerned doctor. I am so thankful that it was in God’s plan for Dr. Laird to be my doctor!

By far one of the rudest doctors I've ever had a consultation with. Sized me up in less than 5 mins. How's that even possible? Some doctor's need to check themselves. Empathize instead of arrogance. Didn't they teach you that in med school?

Dr. Laird is the best doctor I've seen in many years. He does not rush you like you're on an assembly line. He asks questions and actually listens to you and talks with you about your concerns and options. He treats patients with care and lets you know what to expect every step of the way. I have never said this about a doctor before, but medically, I trust Dr. Laird completely. Office staff is friendly and helpful too (another rare occurrence these days).

I've seen Dr. Laird 4 times now. Each and every time he is the most patient, understanding, likeable, easy going, polite doctor I have ever seen. He takes his time and listens. He is NEVER in a rush to get out of the room. He has involved my husband in the visit each time, making sure we both understand what he's looking for/at, what he feels the treatment should be. He answers every question with understanding. I feel safe and at ease knowing he is my doctor. THANK YOU DR. LAIRD.
