Dr Ayers was able to answer all questions that i had and needed to be answered in order for me to make the right decision.
Nov-2019
Did not care for his manner. Do not feel like he understands my history and only dealt with half of the issues I came in with. His PA snickered at one point in the evaluation which soured me. Will probably get a second opinion elsewhere.

I felt like I was in factory. No personal attention, I was handled by the Doctors' assistant, until the very last ten minutes.
Would never let this doctor touch me.

Dr. Ayers explained to me clearly what my meniscus tear involved and the various options available. He didn't pressure me to have surgery but did explain what might happen without it.

I was glad he was able to see me very soon. I wish he'd have been willing to wait while I wrote down his instructions for ankle care or have been willing to write them down himself.

Very professional, gave me plenty of time and attention. He also explained to me my problem and gave me alternatives to help solve my medical situation!

Dr Ayers was excellent....no issues with the surgery. I would definitely go back to him if needed.
May-2019
The doctor saw me for about 5 minutes. The PA spent much longer with me explaining the problem and what my options were than the doctor. Dr Ayers came in, confirmed what Jim Poulin said, didn’t even examine my knee or shoulder and left.
May-2019
Exceptional
Apr-2019
Amazing. Excellent bedside manor and quickly came up with correct diagnosis for a tricky injury. Got me back to 100% in no time. I highly reccomend Dr. Ayers
Apr-2019
In over a year in pain, Dr. Ayers was the first to suggest a possible knee problem, not back or nerves.
Apr-2019
very quick, doesn't provide much face to face time or questions, but I guess they are over booked.
Apr-2019
He is congenial and kind but he didn’t do much. Someone else put cast on my Rm which did not have good outcome

Feb-2019
Very personable
Feb-2019
Dr. Ayers actually was “present” at my evaluation appointment for my knee. We had a substantive conversation in which he answered my questions and conserns. We made a plan for treatment and then he injected my knee himself. A very engaged MD.
Feb-2019
He is a very nice man who explains what is wrong with you so you can actually understand why you need to do physical therapy,surgery,etc.

Very good experience
Oct-2018
Dr. Ayers seemed to genuinely care about my condition. I would see him again if needed.
Oct-2018
I requested an appointment for a specific procedure/treatment that Dr. Ayers does not do. The appointment was a waste of my time, and the staff booking the appointment should have been more knowledge. Also, the dr seemed bored with my health issues.
Oct-2018
Dr. Ayers did a excellent job repairing my rotator cuff.
Oct-2018
For my brief experience with Dr. Ayers, he was courteous and concise. Should I need further evaluation I would not hesitate to make a return visit.
