Patient Reviews
Jul 14, 2021
A Surgeon that is an Expert at his trade! Intelligent and passionate about his work, great with patients and it just flows from there to an outstanding staff and choice of surgical center. I had reservations about surgery after several poor outcomes from different procedures/doctors over many years. But when my Meniscus tore badly, this was the Doctor EVERYONE recommended. I'm so happy for the outcome, but mostly for the way in which Dr.Laird and his staff treated me. Caring, with Integrity and Good Medicine. Thank you Dr.Laird and your Super awesome Team!
