Dr. Straight listens and cares. As I get older, I’m finding less and less of that in the medical field and I greatly appreciate the time he took to really listen to me.
Good communications, understanding, professional
Friendly
I enjoyed my visit with Dr. Straight. My visit was to get injections in my shoulders. Extremely friendly. Complete review of the e-rays. My appointment was on time.
Took the time to explain the options available for my knees. Really liked he used something to numb the area where the shot went!!! Thank you!!!
Very professional
Excellent with explaining processes
Liked the guy. Personable and knowledgeable
Dr Straight was very personable taking the time to listen to my concerns and what I was hoping to accomplish. He is very knowledgeable and quickly diagnosed my problem and provided a plan going forward.
Unbelievably confident man and doctor I wish all my doctors were like him. I am so happy to have met him and to have him help me. I pray that he does the same for all and I think he will do it because I believe that he’s a man that was here to help thank you, Dr Strait
