Poor bedside manners. Seems he is more interested in the procedure and numbers than in the patient themselves. Would not recommend!

It would be helpful if he mentioned the side effects of the medicine he prescribes. I clearly asked him if there any side effects to the medicine he prescribed, he shook his head no as he briskly walked out of the room. I was still flat on my back following a procedure, one that he did not detail or explain before it happened. It's now months later with never a follow-up phone call or anything.

I have been seeing Doctor Clayton for a number of years now and find him to be one of the most caring doctors I have ever met. He is very sensitive to a patients pain and goes out of his way to make sure suffering is kept to a minimum. He never rushes you and takes time to explain exactly what your condition is and your options are. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing his expertise.

Dr. Clayton is very knowlegable and a good surgeon. I have found the office staff to be about the worst I have ever encountered. Completely out of touch with the patients.
