The doctor's bedside manner was very unintentional. Could not make eye contact, act as if he was annoyed the entire conversation. Didn't offer much help with my problem.

First visit with Dr. Day. Great experience. He gave a thorough explanation of pros and cons connected with surgery. Very clear in his explaining. No rush. We felt very well informed to make a final decision. Would definitely recommend him to others!
