"Dr Sawyer spent a lot of time listening to me. I felt like he was very thorough. I see a lot of doctors and few take the time Dr Sawyer did."
"Dr. Sawyer was the first GI specialist that actually sat and looked through my surgical history with me , he asked questions that I had answers to, he came up with a plan that will hopefully cure these never ending stomach problems that I’ve had for the last 20 years. Great personality, easy to talk to and actually showed empathy to problems. He is top notch and I will refer all my friends and family to.
