At Emory I have put together the best care team I have ever had in my 72 years and Dr. Taylor is the top of the list. He really makes me feel that I am not just another patient but he conveys he has a genuine consern for my health and well being. And this is why after going to doctors in centeral georgia it is worth it to me to drive 100 to see him. Even when Emory is able to the tallent here in Warner Robins, I will still drive to see him

Dr Taylor asked how are you feeling, are you having any pain now, show me where it hurts. This engaged us to have a conversation to put me at ease, and gained my confidence in him.

I am completely satisfied with the care Dr Taylor and his staff provides. Dr Taylor is probably the best medical professional I have been treated by in my life. He has all the attributes required of patient care. The healthcare industry would be a better field with more doctors like Dr Taylor.
