            Dr. Williams came highly recommended, and I would happily add to that chorus now that I've been operated on by him.

            Dr Williams is one of the nicest, kindest surgeons. He looks you in the eye while talking to you, and he uses reassuring touch to show you he cares. He makes you feel important, not just a 6.5 minute appointment.
