Dr Hyman & his staff took incredible care of my husband during a complicated surgery. He’s brillant as a surgeon, & his bedside manner is second to none. He gave our whole family comfort & confidence, during a very difficult time.

I went to Dr. Hyman after I had a hernia surgery that turned out very badly somewhere else! Dr. Hyman reversed my colostomy, repaired my hernia with my muscle, and put me back together. I highly recommend him for any colon issues. 5 stars!

Dr Hyman is truly one of the best! Excellent surgeon with impeccable reputation in his field. He takes the time to listen to your questions and answers completely to your satisfaction. Has always asked about my personal life and family as well. Would give 10 stars if possible.

Dr. Hyman was so kind and extremely knowledgeable of the procedure he needed to perform on me. He eased my anxiety and made me feel as if I was really going to be ok. His bed side manner was above and beyond. Thank you Dr. Hyman

Dr. Hyman is probably the best doctor I've ever met. His bedside manner is impeccable. He performed a subtotal colectomy on me 7 years ago. He is so kind and always answers my questions. He is very professional and I still see him for any other issues and followup. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

He has an ego problem and it is hard to get him on the phone. Keeps looking in the computer and doesn't listen to you as he is always busy with his laptop. If you have a question it takes about 3 to 4 days to get a response from his nurse. I don't think he even replies to patients personally. Don't go to him.
