How kind Dr. Woods is with you & your family answering questions about the surgery your about to have. Very patient & understanding. And gives you information you didn't think of. Very helpful.

Review for Dr. Woods

Over the past six years, I took my daughter to Dr. Siegall for depression and anxiety. However, Dr. Siegall wasn’t compassionate and respectful toward her, and he arrived late once to an appointment. He wasn’t professional and knowledgeable, and his staff overcharged me twice over the years.
