Patient Reviews
Apr 28, 2024
All of the staff involved in my daughter's surgery was outstanding. They were so kind and compassionate and really took the time to talk with us and make us feel comfortable. Our family feels so blessed to have found Dr. Skaggs. It is rare to find a doctor that gives you gives you so much of his time, sits down with you face to face, checks in with you by text message after surgery, and gives you his phone number day or night for questions. He is absolutely amazing and would recommend him to anyone in need of these services.
