I trust Dr Lay and he's an excellent Dr but over the past years the care given by the support team is poor and makes me pause to take my care elsewhere which I don't want to do.

Dr. Lay did a good job with my surgery, except that at the end I had only one functional kidney. He showed little interest in treating my repeated ongoing complaints. In his opinion, all my urological issues were caused by diabetes, so not his problem and not worth treating. I am completely unsatisfied with this.
