Patient Reviews
Feb 26, 2023
Dr. Byrkit was the one that found a small lump on my left breast during my exam. Which was breast cancer stage 1 at age 51. I will be 58 in a couple of months and still see her yearly. She is very attentive to my concerns and knows my families history with breast cancer. I am grateful she is straight forward and listens to my concerns.

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams.
