Daniel J Byrns, MD

Awful office staff, limited hours to see patients (3 days a week 1-5) , and the dr has no concern for his patients and what they are going through. Beyond disgusted and disappointed that I ever chose Dr. Bryns as my General Practitioner, I will be switching practices to a doctor that actually cares for his patients.

To sum it up, this doctor and his practice have serious issues with communication, convenience, and patient care. My grandmother had an emergent issue and the soonest his office could schedule an appointment was in 3 months (she was not a new patient, she had been there before). He opened up an appointment for me after I begged because we were concerned for her health (my wife is a doc and we are not overly anxious people, but this was serious). I was not let in to the office to help facilitate communication between him and my grandmother, and he did not give my grandmother any written orders or advice for her new medication. She was already anxious about her health and scared, but he rushed through the visit and she left clueless about the next steps in her care. His office charged her at the end of the visit and did not give her a receipt. Although I was at the office with my grandmother, the doctor refused to speak to me face-to-face, and his staff told me that he would call me. He never did call me back. We made an appointment with a new doc in the area for a follow-up and are now in the process of transferring her records. Overall, we are very disappointed that anyone would have to deal with this type of patient care. There are plenty of docs in the area that are much more careful, patient, and care-oriented.

I love Dr Byrns. He takes time to listen to you, understand what your concerns are, and treats you like person not a clinical element. I have never found his staff rude. You MAY sometimes have to wait but I would rather that, than be pushed along because there is a time limit for patients. And to the reviewer "Carrie Bradshaw" , I doubt Sarah Jessica Parker was there.

Doctor Byrns is prepared, experienced, and he takes a decent amount of time explaining what you have and your options. The staff on the other hand is quite unpleasant. One time I called to get an appointment for a visit and the first available was like three weeks away so I asked is there any chance the doctor could see me that day and they told me I could walk in and wait and so I did. In another occasion I did the same I walked in as I was very sick with the flu and the secretary said it was impossible someone had told me they take walk in. No matter who you talk to at the desk, is not going to be a pleasant experience, whether it is their attitude or the unclarity of the information. Average waiting time: 90 minutes.

I had MRSA before and was very familiar with the pain and look of it. I went in asking for medicine before it got any more painful and he told me I was wrong and that he needed to do a test to see if it was before he can give meds…..made me wait a week to get the results and guess what! Turns out I was right and know my body….it was MRSA He’s a nice guy but he’s a know it all and he knows so much more because he’s the doc!
