He's very knowledgeable and efficient, however, his bedside manner is terrible, very cold and abrupt.

Dr. Ayars seems very hurried in his approach - I felt rushed the entire time. It seemed like he was focused on getting me in and out of there in the shortest possible time. He ordered a standard panel of allergy tests, while I had gone in with primarily food allergy concerns (of course, I wasn't given a full chance to explain it to him). The standard panel had no food allergy tests, and I was only told this after I asked.

El doctor es una persona muy profesional , consciente y sobre todo muy accesible con quien se puede hablar y a quien se le puede preguntar . Muy razonable y con mucha experiencia. Excelente
December 24, 2013Alegdy C.Verified patient
Dr. Ayars was great. He was friendly and professional. He greeted me right from the waiting room which I really liked. In the past with other doctors a nurse or assistant called my name and I followed them to an exam room where I waited for the doctor to arrive. I thought this was just a very nice unexpected way to start out. The entire visit was efficient and did not take long, which I really appreciate. I am going back for a follow-up in 10 days and look forward to seeing him again.
December 10, 2013Margaret V.Verified patient
visits - plural - I have been under Dr. Ayars care for about 3 years now. In fact, I am convinced the staff misses me as I was going into the office 2-3-5 times a month. They entire office AND Dr Ayars has treated w/ competence, education, caring, and concern.
