Not sure if he is a good surgeon but his bedside manners are not good. He is not very kind to Elderly. Very abrupt and appears to not care.

Dr. Hayashi spends as much time as needed to address all concerns. A very careful and thorough surgeon.

Dr.Hyashi did my surgery and follow up. He was right there checking on me or his associates were as we'll! When I did have a post surgical concern, he was quite prompt in responding to my needs and made me feel that if I had any more concerns, or needs ,I should feel free to contact him. Made me genuinely, feel cared about as HIS patient! His reputation precedes him! Would totally recommend him!b

I had a fairly rare / uncommon bowel obstruction, Dr Hayashi properly diagnosed me and after I expressed concern over a different Doctor performing my surgery, he came back early from vacation to treat me! Follow-up daily with me in the hospital until I was ok to go home, aswered my questions after hours, the man is liek a machine he never stops working and truly cares for his patients

Dr. Hayashi is extremely friendly, as is his staff. He takes time to explain things to us and never acts as if our questions are a burden. He was very sensitive to the situation and made sure that we were at easy all the time. Anyone in need of a surgery should request Dr. Hayashi
