Patient Reviews
Dec 04, 2024
I was able to meet Dr. Bailey just recently. I told him to be totally honest with me and he was. He told me what could possibly be going on with a large polyp in my intestines. It was his desire to go step-by-step, based on the evidence of the findings of my diagnosis. Dr. Bailey was one of the most outstanding doctors I have ever had the opportunity to be in the care of. He was factual, professional, and yet personable. I felt like he really cared about my experience. When I had an issue, I emailed him and he responded very quickly. He put my mind at ease about my issue. I didn't feel like I was disturbing him or an inconvenience.If you prefer a doctor, who is professional, personable, takes the time to explain things to you in a way you will understand, then Dr. Bailey is the doctor for you. I highly recommend him.
