Brilliant medical practitioner, terrific, bedside manner, conservative approach, and yet always seeking the right treatment for the proper diagnosis. They don’t make them any better than Dr Dale Boyd.

Over the past 5 years, I've seen numerous physicians for my ankle issue. Dr Boyd was the first physician who did not have a computer in between us and he actually looked me in the eyes and spoke to me, not at me. He listened to what I was saying and didn't push me into having surgery. He is awesome. Emerge is lucky to have such a wonderful provider on staff.
