Patient Reviews
Mar 12, 2017
Took his time to answer all of my questions. Never felt rushed. Have had 3 procedures at his Lakeside facility. His staff there have always been very nice, very competent and very efficient. All 3 times were very easy, comfortable and, might I say, as stress free as they could be. I highly recommend Dr Ward and his staff!
