Dr. Byrne operated on my son and then myself many years later. One of the most competent doctors I have ever met in my life. Along with an excellent surgeon, just an all around good man. I thank God that he was there for me and my boy. Tom James, Cedar Lake, IN.

Dr. Byrne is one of the best doctors I have had ever had the pleasure to meet under the 2nd most stressful event in my life. He quickly put all of my panicked concerns to rest. When you find out you have tumor in any area of the brain your first thought is how much time is left. He assured me that this was a routine procedure and even cracked a few jokes to put me at ease. I have not had the surgery yet but I can tell that when I do I will be in good hands and that I will be greeted by him with awesome bedside manners. Highly recommend this man.

Dr. Byrne came highly recommended. He was a disappointment. I felt hurried during the short appointment. I needed to spend more time on the MRI. He seemed frustrated with my questions, I don't think I asked the right one. Ultimately, what he told me and what he wrote in my chart were completely different.

At 31 years old, only 18 months into our marriage and 1 week before our first child was born, my husband was diagnosed with a brain tumor. Dr. Byrne took his time to explain the diagnosis, the treatment (surgery), the risks of the surgery and the many possible outcomes. Dr. Byrne explained the surgery would take 2 hours and it took EXACTLY that. He was able to resect 100% of any visible tumor and for that I will be forever grateful. I am thankful everyday for the special gift that God gave Dr. Byrne which allowed my husband a second chance.

Dr. Byrne puts his patients before anything else. He is caring, compassionate and a true leader in his field of expertise. Dr. Byrne saved the life of my husband and we are grateful to him for eternity.I have recommended Dr. Byrne to a friend diagnosed with a very ugly form of brain tumor earlier this year. I will keep on recommending Dr. Byrne in the future, as he and his team have given my husband a second chance. Yours truely,
