What a difference from the previous visit to a different orthopedic doctor! Dr. Layug listened carefully, examined thoroughly, and then diagnosed my condition. He also talked to me about another orthopedic problem I had before the one presented at the time of my appointment. I felt confident in understanding what was wrong (he even used simple metaphors to explain) and in following his treatment plan. I left the office feeling lightened and ready to heal. What more could one ask from a health care provider?

He answers my many questions fully and respectfully, which is a very important quality for me in a medical care provider. From the start of each treatment he has clearly articulated how I can expect the recovery process to unfold, which has been helpful in my planning.
