Everything went smoothly with my operation. It was a major surgery and I was nervous at first but I was told he was one of the best and I was in good hands. They were right, he was the best and was very caring and concerned with my needs. His staff was also very kind and treated me very well. Thank you so much!

I'm writing this in behalf of my mom. Dr. Bayron was the best surgeon! My mom's surgery was a very serious one and on top of that She has low heart rate, making surgery a last resort. The surgery was over in a blink of an eye with no complications. My family was so worried going into te surgery but now we are so thankful for Dr. Bayron. My mom's experience in general with him has been great. He communicates both in office visits and if you are home with questions. He is very nice and we are so thankful that a skilled surgeon like himself did my moms surgery. Also, we were in the waiting room and 5 other families received great news on their family members' surgery with Dr. Bayron. Great surgeon

I went to see Dr bayron with a little bit of apprehension based on some of the comments here. i could not have been better impressed. He was caring and knowlegable. I mentioned him about this. He was happyto talk about it. He knowledges that some people might not be happy, afterdoing approximately a thousand cases a year but he invited me to judge my own experience. I would recomend him without remorse.He does carry malpractice insurance.
