My goal is to empower patients through education. I believe one must fully understand their condition and all treatment options to make the best medical decision. This process involves a concerted effort between the physician, patient and their loved ones.

My experience with Dr. Ivy is always excellent. He has an open , friendly manner, and is always informative and responsive to questions. He explains the origins of conditions, progression, and treatment options. He is clearly very knowledgeable and skilled. He is an excellent physician.
Dr. Ivy presented the options in a very understandable manner. He was in no hurry and asked us several times for any questions we had. He was very friendly and personable.
Dr. Ivy was excellent, he did not rush through my visit. He made sure all my questions were answered as we discussed three options for my condition going forward. Both Dr. Ivy and his PA treated me like I was family, with the utmost professionalism.
The doctor explained clearly that if it doesn't heal correctly that I might need surgery
Dr Ivy great
