Sheilah Clayton
"Dr. Sheilah Clayton was very nice and very matter of fact. I appreciated her no-nonsense approach to the explanation of my surgery and what she will be doing, the risks and benefits and I look forward, with confidence, to my surgery. At first her staff seemed kind of indifferent, but after battling with the insurance company a few times together--we had a better appreciation. Their job is pretty tough. Having to take people through a very emotionally charged process and stay true to their objective isn't as easy as you may think. My surgery date was 9/11/02 and on 9/27/02 I personally experienced the compassion that others have so tenderly spoke of in Dr. Clayton. I was having pain & discomfot in my stomach and lower back and called Dr. Clayton after hours after waiting to see if the feeling would change. She called almost immediately, asked me a few questions and told me that when the day began, she would be in touch with me on where to go to get a CT scan. I took my kids to school, and when I returned, Dr. Clayton left a detailed message on where to go, who to call, the number and appointment time. She was to be in surgery that day, but was concerned enough about me to have me go to the Imaging Center next door to the hospital, and after her surgery, she came by to check on me and ask how I was doing. I knew I made the right decision in choosing her, but this incident gave me a renewed assurance in my faith in her, her professionalism and that compassionate side I now know. I recommend her highly--she is a consummate professional with the heart to care for you in good times and bad."
