Very personable and clearly explained my condition in layman's terms as well as pointed out on my X-ray the issues that are causing pain. I especially appreciate his primary focus on taking a nonoperative approach to manage my issue.
He's very kind doctor,he knows his work
Always a good visit quick and good conversation
Knowledgeable, forthcoming and positive.
Highly recommend Dr Straight! Have seen him for shoulders, back, feet, aches, hand and so many more injuries and just old age. He is always asking questions, diving into what's causing my issues, never rushed. He genuinely wants to get to the bottom of what's happening and what steps you can take to correct it. Make an appt and see for yourself!
Great doctor!
Very good visit. He is very good at his job, diagnosing the root cause with just physical assessment. My pain has greatly improved. I am happy I made the appointment
Very informative about what is happening with my shoulder.
Great personality! His name fits his style - he is straight up. No beating around the bush so to speak. Very efficient. Overall great doctor!
He was very nice and experienced
