Patient Reviews
Mar 06, 2023
Dr. Baay was my surgeon for double bypass surgery in 2020. He spent plenty of time with me before the surgery and rescheduled my operation for a time when his team was at their best. The surgery went faster than expected, and my healing was quicker than I thought. I can’t thank him enough.
