Dr. Ball watched over me for 20+ years, until we moved. What a great manner with patients combined with experience...it's the kind of care and prevention you hope for. I know I will live longer because of it.

My wife and I actually look forward to our appointments with Mike Ball... his professional bedside manner is second to none, and he is extremely proficient in his profession. Many of my friends highly recommended him as outstanding in every way... and he has been a blessing for us!! I (we), appreciate him for who he is, what he does, and the manner in which he shares his “talent” of medical knowledge and expertise.

I've been with Dr Ball since Dec. 1992. Since then I have had excellent care, he will take time to listen to your problems and or concerns. The wait in his office is long but well worth it. I feel Dr. Ball and his staff are very professional but at the same time don't make you feel like you are just a number.

Wait in office time not really true. You start out knowing it will be a long procedure. So no complaint.

He makes the correct diagnosis. He cares very much about his patients. He works with them in difficult situations to make the best diagnosis possible. He's got a great sense of humor; that certainly helps in stressful situations.
