“This was one of the best experiences I have had with a doctor. I'm serious. Do yourself a favor and go with Dr. Hayford.”
David M.April 19, 2026
“I cannot say enough great things about my experience with Dr. Kweku Hayford. From the moment I walked in, I felt genuinely seen and cared for. He was incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and—most importantly—he took his time with me. I never felt rushed or dismissed.
Dr. Hayford carefully reviewed my medical history and took the time to fully understand my current condition. He explained everything clearly, answered all of my questions with patience, and made sure I felt comfortable every step of the way.
As someone who travels frequently for work and has seen many primary care physicians over the past 4–5 years, this was the first time I truly felt cared for—not just treated, but understood.
I’m actually looking forward to my next visit, which says everything. I highly recommend Dr. Hayford—10/10 experience.”

Very anxious, easily overwhelmed. Would not recommend him for any women’s health issue. Does not stay on topic. Very moody.

Good doctor. Keeps things light while emphasizing items that need attention. Only had one appointment, so not clear on the follow-up, but appreciate the fact that he stressed doing an appointment after labs come back. I have found myself referring back to useful insights from the appointment.

came in with a lot of issues and he listened and is helping me get things done. good doctor, really appreciated it after coming in with so much wrong!
October 16, 2025Dylan G.Verified patient
He was actually the most thorough physical o had in my life and I’m 49. He checks mental, physical and social. Be prepared for a real visit and come ready with your history!
September 30, 2025Danitra K.Verified patient
Very disappointed. Waste of my time.
I was not seen by this provider since I would have had to wait for an hour past my scheduled appointment time. I found out after I arrived that the doctor was “running behind” while the doctor was attending other patients. This was only told to me after filling out intake forms and copying my license. There was not a single other patient in the waiting room. At this point I left and I won’t be going back.

August 5, 2025Gary B.Verified patient
Yes, I will definitely be returning to see Dr. Hayford, as I was impressed by his reviews. My previous provider retired, therefore, I was desperate to find someone competent, knowledgeable and well-mannered as Dr. Hayford. I really like the fact that he took a good amount of time to get to know me and how he was able to see some of my prior treatments in his laptop and responded to each one. I was also impressed as to his concern for my current medications which could be causing some of my long-term ailments. I would highly recommend Dr. Hayford as he was worth the 55 minute drive!!!!!!!

Incredible doctor!

Dr. Hayford was excellent during my visit. He listened thoroughly to my concerns, was willing to review over 100 pages of medical records and had a very professional and pleasant bedside manner. He actually cares about his patients and wants to help them. I’m very happy that he is my physician!

Outstanding!!!!!! What I love most is Dr. Haywood took his time to get to know me as a person first, then as a patient!!!!!! He was very thorough and took his time explaining everything! I can not say enough about this amazing doctor!
May 9, 2025Terri D.Verified patient
My annual physical with Dr. Hayford was exceptional. I truly appreciated how attentive he was to my past medical experience and history, demonstrating a genuine understanding of my health journey. His recommendations for living a healthier lifestyle were insightful and clearly showcased his extensive knowledge and wisdom. Beyond his expertise, Dr. Hayford's warm personality and sense of humor made the appointment comfortable and even enjoyable. He also has a remarkable ability to communicate with compassion, ensuring I felt heard and understood. I highly recommend Dr. Hayford if you are looking for a new PCP! He knows what he’s doing.

He was in rush to leave
March 27, 2025mehran S.Verified patient
I was a little nervous due to having doctors who didn’t really listen to my needs or rushed me in the past, but he seems to genuinely care about you as a person. He’s super friendly and attentive, and the appointment will genuinely be centered around you and your concerns. Very pleasant and comfortable to be around. This is probably one of the best providers I have ever been seen by thus far. Definitely recommend.
March 27, 2025Angel E.Verified patient

Excellent service, the doctor Hayford takes his time, to hear out all your concerns and makes you feel at ease discussing your symptoms and concerns. He did NOT rush the service and I was very happy that he went slow and wanted to hear everything that was going on with me.

Great stuff! Dr. Hayford was solution-driven, and empathetic to making me feel at ease and not doing anything I was uncomfortable with regarding his solutions. I also enjoyed witnessing the simple AI tools that help doctors care for patients for effectively.

I just return from my first wellness visit with Doc Hayford since my previous doctor retired. He spent an hour with me going over my health history and preforming a physical.
I found him friendly and thorough. I didn't have any major issues at this time so I cannot speak for how he would handle treatment but it was everything I wanted in a physical appointment. He called me on the way home to clarify a referral request. He also scheduled a tel-a-doc follow up meeting to review my lab work which I really liked.
He will be my primary care physician moving forward.
