Patient Reviews
Jun 20, 2024
Once that door closed behind dr skyhar he was not on a clock. He was relaxed and very attentive an interested in what i was going through and he listened to my whole story of my different injuries and what lead up to them. You could immediately tell this man loves his work, he has a passion for it still after all these years. This is not just a boring, mindless, repetitive process for him of endless souless bodies coming through his practice for the same quick response and time constriction so he can just through the next one to get through his day and get home. He then came up with a plan to address the different issues I presented and his staff was also just as amazing treating me with respect and just plan downright old fashion hospitality.
