Patient Reviews
Dec 19, 2023
Dr Payatakes did an incredible job for me. I was in an auto accident and needed surgery on a broken bone in my hand. Given the urgency of my situation, Dr Payatakes made sure to fit me into his busy schedule and agreed to have me come in for surgery on a day he was scheduled to fly iut out of town for a conference for hand surgeons. What was to be an hour long surgery, turned out to be nearly four hours because Dr Payatakes was committed to doing what needed to be done regardless of how long it took. I use my right hand for work, and I’m very grateful for his professionalism and commitment to excellence. My hand is nearly fully healed and it’s performing much better than hoped for. Dr Payatakes is straightforward and calls it as he sees it - no annoying doctor double speak. He’s also quite funny. I highly recommend Dr. Alexander Payatakes. There are many others to choose from, but he was recommended to me and choosing him was one of the best choices I’ve made.
