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.

Excellent Doctor
Dr Byrd is wonderful! He’s personable, compassionate, and makes the experience very tolerable.

Dr Byrd is a good listener, to trigger finger
Dr Byrd and his professional staff did a fine repair of my trigger finger. They were sensitive to my chronic back pain. Every staff member was terrific. 5 stars!

He’s the guy to fix your carpal tunnel
Dr. Byrd is the go to surgeon for carpal tunnel - though a classic intense fast moving surgeon he still took the time to explain every aspect of the process from before until 3 months after. Hopefully I will not need the other side fixed but if so, I will want him to fix it! I recommend Dr. Byrd without hesitation.

Confidence and knowledge
My first contact with Dr.Byrd was lite and witty giving a personable first impression. During my appointment, Dr. Byrd inspired confidence and knowledge in his expertise when talking about my injury, treatment, and therapy plan. Dr. Byrd was attentive to my concerns and answered questions with an honest assessment. I am very comfortable with Dr. Bird and his knowledge in his area of expertise. I look forward to further progress under his care.

Humor, patience and willingness
I left a review some time ago for Dr Byrd, but I’m leaving another because with all my endless hand issues I feel like it cannot be said enough how valuable it is to have a doctor who doesn’t give up on you. Dr Byrd has done 4 surgeries on me, but my hand issues go back further than that. My hands are quite honestly the bane of my existence. If you’re ever had chronic hand issues you know how it effects every aspect of your life making it hard to do even every day things. Every time I have to see Dr Byrd I worry, is he going to give up on me? He must be tired of me by now! But every time I see him he’s friendly, he has a good sense of humor, and even though he may not always have an immediate answer or solution, he’s at least willing to try and help me every time. So I don’t know if the doctors actually see these reviews, but thank you for not giving up on me Dr Byrd!

Great outcome.
Dr Byrd did a great job with surgery for a trigger finger issue and hand arthritis. Im an older guitar player; it got to where I just couldn’t play. Now, post-surgery, I’m back to playing without movement restrictions or pain in my fret hand. Feels great to be able to use my fingers again. I’m very grateful for the care I’ve received.
