Dr.Boyd is fantastic! Answered all of our questions and concerns. Kept us up to date the entire surgery. The true amazing thing is his care for his patients after surgery. Checked on our daughter multiple times after surgery and called personally to check on her 2 days post op. Highly recommend Dr.Boyd and will continue seeing him for after care and any future injuries my family may have. I trust him fully with my young athletes orthopedic needs!
