Dr. Byrd completely changed my life for the better. I am one year post op total knee replacement. I no longer have pain or a limp. He listens - that is so important to patients. Highly recommend.

Before I met Dr. Bird, I was very scared. It took me 10 years before II made a decision to get my total knee replacement when I met Dr. Bird he made me feel very comfortable. He explained everything to me and I have both done and I’m doing great thank you Dr. Bird.

I felt rushed. He didnnt take the time to discuss my situation in detail and didnt ask me if i had any questions before i leave. He spent maybe 10mins with me and was done. Very disappointed. I felt like a # and not a person. This issue with me has been goin on for quite awhile and i want a resolution.
