My appt with dr. Ward was a final checkup for my bladder cancer that occurred on 2006 and 2008. It was the most enjoyable and informative consult I've had with ANY doctor in my 81 years. HE'S THE BEST!!!!

Dr. Ward made me feel at ease and comfortable with the procedure. He listened to my concerns and gave both me and my husband thorough explanations on what he was seeing on the screen. I felt he took extra time with me but perhaps he does with all of his patients. I wrote him a thank you note in my appreciation of his kindness to me during this procedure. So a special THANK YOU Dr. Ward - great job!!

Dr. David Ward is the best, most competent, most knowledgeable, most caring/kind doctor I've ever had. He understands an unusual medical condition I have when other doctors didn't have a clue. I feel like I'm in very good hands with him. I appreciate Dr. Ward very much and value being his patient.

Dr. Ward was awesome! He explained what was going on with my kidney, showed me all the scans that were done for it, and was really able to set my mind at ease. He said he was going to order another scan, and I was called the next day to set up appointment. I have not been this impressed with the doctor or service in a very long time.
