- Dr. Clay Baynham is one of the most compassionate, caring Doc 's I've ever met. His expertise and experience are impeccable. He is an excellent technician and makes the best decisions for his patients. He operated on me a year ago; I had a PLIF and disc replacement. I am back to biking, golfing, and gardening and feel great! Pain-free! God Bless you Dr. Baynham and your wonderful staff. I am so very grateful for your skill and kindness.
- Dr. Baynham is a fantastic surgeon, saved my life, gave me my career back. I will never be able to thank him enough or praise him highly enough to repay him for what he did for my family and me. God Bless you Dr. B!
- Had an excellent, positive experience surgically by Dr. Clay Baynham and Bo. They were professional, knowledgeable, courteous and very informative. I felt very comfortable with Dr. Baynham 's surgical skills and excellent bedside manner. Everything pertinent to my surgery was explained thoroughly, and I knew what to expect. I was extremely pleased with the care I received and his staff. Thank you all for a positive experience.
- Had my surgery slightly more than 7 years ago and still doing well. Microdiscectomy L5 S1 and Laminectomy L4 L5 & L5 S1; 3 procedures outpatient and home the same day as surgery. Dr. Clay Baynham is without a doubt the best in the biz. Between Dr. Bayham and his assistant, Bo, you cannot go wrong. You are in good hands and need not look any further for a spine surgeon. Thanks again Clay and Bo!! Still doing well!!!
- Dr. Baynham and the whole staff were great, from check in to check out! Very informative staff, and Dr. Baynham patiently went over all my options in regards to non-surgery and surgery options. Would definitely recommend.
- Just had fusion on my L5-S1 Thursday. I 'm in a lot of pain still but can already see positive results. I can put weight on my right leg, which I wasn 't able to before, and lift my leg, which I wasn't able to before. It 's going to be a long recovery but well worth it!
- Dr. Clay Baynham is kind, compassionate and caring. In addition to all of these, he is an excellent, extraordinary surgeon. I pray he never retires! His PA Bo is much the same and has a phenomenal bedside manner.
