Patient Reviews
Apr 10, 2021
Dr. Bird was excellent! He was very knowledgeable, took time to explain all of the procedures as he was performing them, and gave me additional follow-up recommendations when my health issue didn't meet his specialization. He even arranged for an alternative neurologist to contact me for an appointment. That was above and beyond the norm. I would highly recommend him.
