About

Philosophy of Care

Every surgeon has a core desire to solve problems. Some problems are simple, and others, such as cancer, are less so. I am committed to guiding patients through the entire process of finding solutions to their problems, however complex they may be. I use modern technology and minimally invasive technique to do so, and I am passionate about integrating surgical needs into the bigger picture of who a person is.

Amber treated me before and when I had another problem come up I knew I wanted her to fix it, I reached out and we easily went forward to repair the hernia

10/06/2023

Very good listener and understanding

09/27/2023

I would liked to have more detailed notes post-procedure either in My Chart or printed as I am a visual person and want to read instructions as well as receive them verbally.

09/20/2023

Dr Taylor is very kind, gentle, great communicator and great surgeon

08/25/2023

All great.

08/18/2023

The Check-in process was the weakest part. They seem to be hiding behind the monitors. And the "I'm on the phone LED" was not on for all calls. Leaving me in a position of "do they see me or just ignoring me". This first impression was not positive. It was repeated when I arrived for the post-op follow up appointment. Each time I came, I stood for over 3 min. before I was acknowledged. I repeat, all other aspects of seeing the Doctors and and surgical center was FULLY positive.

08/18/2023

Thank you for all you did for me. I appreciate it.

08/10/2023

07/14/2023

They did not know I had an ultrasound, had not reviewed it or the report. It felt a bit strange that I needed to come in when they needed a pre- authorization to do anything. So I have to go back. I feel like this consultation could have been done over the phone.
