- well Doc Straight is Excellent along with his staff👍🏼💯
Fabulous doctor - i won’t go to anyone else & I continue to recommend him to friends!!
Visit was timely and courteous staff. Doctor took time to listen to the issue and ask and answer questions. He explained what was the structural cause and options on how to fix the medical issue. Great patient skills.
Very concerning regarding my situation, likeable personality
Talking about my knee injections, wishing e had more information about upcoming knee surgery. Spending more time talking about future health plans regarding knee surgery
An excellent doctor. Great bedside banner. Always takes care of my issue and my pain
Doc is the man!
Dr. Straight seemed knowledgeable but moved incredibly fast and came off a bit overly confident. I was not asked many questions and didn’t feel as though I had the time or space to voice concerns or talk about my issue beyond his concise diagnosis. I left feeling rather defeated and discouraged about my injury improving.
Called for an appointment and they saw me in two days. Doctor Straight is very professional, easy to talk to and I feel very confident in his care. His staff is awesome as well.
Very professional had a great dr visit with him . Was my first visit I left feeling like in very good hands .He explained all my questions before leaving .
