The doctor and nurse listened and answered every question and concern I had. I appreciate that as many times in other facilities they rush you through.

Overall, an excellent experience. Dr Michael Weaver took all the time that was needed to address our questions, was very thorough in explaining the procedures and the risks, and even had sketches to help visualize what needs to be done. We even looked at the actual device that I would need. I left this consultation with a very high level of confidence in that I have the right team working on me.

This was my first meeting with Dr. Weaver to discuss a scheduled heart bypass procedure. He explained the procedure carefully. Before I recommend him to friends and family, let's see how the bypass operation goes. If I'm still alive afterwards, I'll sing his praises.

Yes, I would like to especially thank, give all thanks to Mr. Michael Weaver. Man, he explained everything to me so well. He made me feel better about what was going on with myself. I was able to explain it to my kids even better, you know. And his staff was so polite and nice, so I really appreciate the time that they all took out with me, and I will recommend people to him. Thank you.

Dr. Weaver is very informative, which I appreciate. I feel my options were limited due to a few different factors. I may seek a second opinion. But everyone was on the same page.

I think Dr. Weaver's staff is very respectful and amiable and care about their patients. And they put their patients first. And they listen to whatever they need to tell them. And they also schedule appointments in a respectful and amiable way. The women that's at the reception, even the ladies that's in the back where they take you to get your examination. Dr. Weaver himself is very polite, real manners. I recommend him and his staff to anybody and in my family members. Thank you. Have a blessed day.

Dr. Weaver and staff are outstanding. We have only met with each other and I have absolute confidence in his team. The next time I meet with them they will be doing a quadruple bypass on me and for them to have this kind of effect on me means that I have confidence in them.

Dr. Weaver is an outstanding physician. He explained my health issues carefully by drawing sketches so that I understood my health situation. I left with a feeling of hope in spite of a serious health condition. What I admire most about Dr. Weaver is his love of what he does that translates to his care and compassion for his patient. We were greeted nicely by the staff, and Dr. Weaver's nurse was very thorough and very kind. This was a very positive experience.
