Dr. Girard advocated for me all through my hospital stay through my eventual surgery. He took the time to explain my options and performed a very successful surgery. His bedside manner is awesome! And he kept my husband informed of my care throughout my hospital stay during the COVID-19 virus. He’s awesome!

I didn’t meet Dr Girard until after my prostate surgery. He was called into surgery when there were complications with prostate cancer. Dr Girard and Dr Ristau worked on me for almost 12 hours. It was a very long day for these two awesome surgeons. Dr Girard is a very compassionate and caring Dr. I highly recommend Dr Girard to anyone that needs his services.
