Patient Comments
Dr. Seward has consistently been attentive, explaining what he's about to do, why and asking for feedback.
Dr Sewards is the BEST!!! He has a great bedside manner. He listens, answers all my questions. I feel very comfortable and well taken care of.
Thank you for everything!!!
I was given a suggestion to purchase something online to help with my problem. No imaging or tests were discussed, and my ongoing problem was dismissed.
Would recommend Dr. Sewards to anyone seeking a great surgeon. He also takes his time listening and is empathetic and compassionate.
