He listens. Explains diagnosis so we can understand it. Very caring and empathetic. Totally understands when and how much a patient is in pain. Speaks to a patient as a person not a medical book. Does not act like he is in a rush. My favorite doctor so far at SEO.

Dr. Doward was very professional while still maintaining a very friendly demeanor to make my husband and I feel comfortable throughout the appointment. He listened and addressed all of our questions and concerns without making us feel like we shouldn’t be asking, like so many other specialists in my experience. I feel confident that Dr. Doward will take excellent care of my husband’s low back issues and look forward to him being out of pain very soon!

I had an excellent experience with Dr. Doward and the team at SOS Herschel where I took my 12 visits of physical therapy. These folks are amazing and I would definitely recommend. Don't go anywhere else. I been else where 2 times and have had horrible experiences with other Chiropractors in Jacksonville. Make sure you check licensing on the Florida Health Department website before going to anyone else. SOS Teams are the best and so are their facilities. Thank you Dr. Doward for leading me in the right direction to recovery.
