Patient Reviews
Jun 22, 2023
Never had to wait for more than 10-15 minutes. Dr Mays always listens and addresses my concerns and I have never felt rushed. I primarily only see him for my once a year wellness checkup but I have called his office for a few minor things and always received a good, helpful response. After over 30 years, we have grown together. I can’t imagine having to find another pcp.
