Dr. Headford and his team and the trauma team also were very very kind and helpful in every way possible. They ask me every question I felt necessary to understand the situation I was in and to help feel comfortable with them. They also answered every question I had with confidence and sincerity to make sure I understood everything that they had planned for me and everything they completed with surgeries and prepping for my sake. All around great people and made me feel right at home and make me comforty

I don't have a computer so I don't have any visual feedback. However, Dr. Headford was very helpful, extremely helpful. I have no problems with him whatsoever. He was a great doctor, looked at my leg. I'd go back to him anytime. I have problems with other departments. However, I do not have any problem at all with Dr. Headford. Thank you very much. Have a great day. Bye-bye.
