    I felt Dr Williams read my chart and test reports and was well prepared for consultation and discussion. I felt time consideration was not rushed. I felt my XRAY's and explanation of Dr Williams diagnosis was straightforward and in language I could understand.

    Dr Williams explained the procedure I had thought might be helpful for my post stroke condition, and was very helpful in providing the pros and cons involved. I had already dnecided that the procedure might be a re ally great stress on my body considering my existing heart condition. and the decision to forego the surgery was somewhat of a relief.

  • Reviewed on 7/20/2025

    I was impressed that Dr. Williams was familiar with my issues. I was also impressed that he wanted to further investigate my issues before giving me a diagnosis. He did mention several possible problems but said he couldn't be sure until he saw the results of the testing. He was very kind and easy to talk to.
