The best doctor I have ever been to. He is caring, patient and VERY thorough. Exceptionally intelligent and always addresses any concern. Never in a rush and explains everything he is doing and any tests he's ordering. If you need a good doctor in the Birmingham area, you won't go wrong with Dr. Daugherty.

Dr. Daugherty is probably the best doctor I have ever seen. I always try to go back to him whenever possible. He is very knowledgeable and professional, and I never leave without feeling that my problem has been fully addressed, and I have the best possible care/treatment when I leave. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
