Dr. Tye always spends ample time discussing mine and my son's concerns at our yearly follow-up. His bedside manner is wonderful and listens to his concerns. He explains images and diagnosis information in a way that is easy for both my son and I to understand. He also demonstrates respect for my teenage son and includes him in the discussion.
