Patient Reviews

Nov 01, 2018

Dr. Bird overflows with empathy and compassion in a medical system where those qualities are in desperately short supply. He treats me not as just a patient but as a concerned friend. He's also an excellent generalist with knowledge and direct experience with many different health problems making him even more valuable as a medical provider.
