Patient Reviews
Aug 16, 2021
Dr. Edwards is very kind and knowledgeable. He took the time to answer my many questions and helped me make the decision to have surgery. During the surgery he was very calming and reassuring which I greatly appreciated. When I needed a second procedure he explained the procedure and what to expect. When I had a complication/side effect he made sure I was scheduled right away and helped provide treatment options. I highly recommend him.
