Feel 75% better after seeing him last Monday I already have
He did an outstanding job!!! I did ask before he saw me if I could ask him about another condition that was going on and I was told that it would have to be another visit. I am actually a family physician and take care of multiple conditions everyday for essentially all of my patients!!! Maybe next time more than one condition could be taken care of, just a thought!! Thankyou!!!
I like him , says what I need to hear , answers my questions directly.
Excellent doctor
The best Doctor. Has a pleasant disposition. Explains your options clearly. Very efficient. I don’t want anyone else in his specialty. Had a substitute doctor once who gave me the shots required to relive pain, the shot lasted until I got home. Was in pain for 3 months until I could get relief. I said NEVER AGAIN will I take a substitute. I will only have Dr. Straight to give me my shot. If he is not available, I will wait until he is available. He goes straight to and correctly relieved my pain. Thank you for your service Dr. Straight.
Dr.straight was very nice and a good listener and he seemed to already know what my issue was even before walking into the room to assess me. I would recommend him 100%. The visit was quick and easy and straight to the point!
Best dr ever always great & helpful.
Very nice, kind, caring and respectful man. Would highly recommend him
I saw him before 3 yrs ago he gave me a shot in my knee and I just needed another one. He's the best no pain and hes so fast. But most of all the best personally. Love him
Very personable, quick to diagnose and recommend treatment.
