Dr. Batty helped me by removing my gallbladder. Making an appointment was quick and the wait in his office was very brief. His staff was very kind and courteous. Dr. Batty took time to answer my questions before and after my surgery. His staff also did a good job getting my concerns/questions to him before my post-op meeting in which he promptly replied. He also shared that could ask him any other questions that may pop up after my surgery, as well. I would definitely recommend Dr. Batty to others. He's a good man who takes time with his patients.
