I was extremely satisfied with the Dr and his entire staff.
He is wonderful and I tell all my friends to go to your clinic Thank you for being so nice
Extremely professional from the moment I stepped into his office , to the moment my surgery was done . Really made me feel much better about my situation.
Very encouraging visit... I look forward to the next one. :)
Dr Boyett is always kind and always concerned about doing the best thing for me. He has always treated me with excellent care.
Awesome!! Everyone friendly and helpful!!
If the wait times weren’t so bad, he’d get 5 stars. 8:00am appointment. Didn’t see him until 9:25.
Had an appt. scheduled for today, Oct. 15th, for what I thought was to have a procedure done, to take off from work, to get there and it to be a follow up from the procedure I was to have already had done?! Waste if my time today, I understand things happen, just think this could have been avoided! Just want to get help to feel better, for a better quality of life! I don’t hold the doctor accountable, just the people in charge of paper work. 🥹
Very professional and caring.
I Fully Trust in the advice and guidance that Dr. Boyett gave me. I really appreciate the frankness on the information I received from him. I Highly Recommend him and his Associate in their medical care.
