Very professional and personable as well.
Jan-2025
He was extremely arrogant and condescending to me. Said I should keep getting steroid shots even though my back will get worse. Said he’d do the surgery if I wanted because he gets paid a lot for it. It was a horrible experience and I won’t be back. I definitely don’t want someone who treated me so badly to be cutting into me. I left the appointment crying.

Dr. Boyer is a great surgeon. Has performed 3 surgeries for me. He has excellent mannerisms. Easy to talk to. Uses plain English not a lot of medical terminology.
His staff all seem to enjoy the office atmosphere and are pleasant to deal with.
The physician assistants all seem knowledgeable and are very kind.
