Patient Reviews
Aug 13, 2020
My husband had a stroke, we saw a tele-neurologist in the hospital, who gave a diagnosis, but his explanation was so overly simplistic that we wanted to have an actual doctor check him. We loved Dr. Tyer! He is no nonsense, spoke to us like we were intelligent beings, yet gave analogies easily understood.
