Wow......clearly I am the ONLY patient that's ever had a bad experience with this doctor or this doctor/office staff maintain control over what reviews remain on this site. Let's see how long this review remains. Brian Trainor's hands are far better skilled on a piano ! I wish I had known this before I allowed them on me. I read some reviews about Dr. Trainor before he performed surgery on me, I wish I had heeded their advisement. (wow....those reviews on other sites are gone, too)

Dr. Trainor is an amazing guy. He is very professional from the time he enters the room until the time he exams and explains things to you about your condition. He will definitely leave you smiling and feeling better about yourself. I would HIGHLY recommend him to anyone that needs his professional help. The staff was great even when I called multiple times and the waiting area was very nice and comfortable.

We have brought our daughter here a few times and have had a great experience. Dr. Trainer is excellent with children and helped us figure out why our daughter was having issues with her cough.

Dr. Trainor is very easy to talk to, explains all procedures and ideas on a patient level, is very caring and helpful in seeking treatment outside of his practice when necessary. He tells it like it is and goes the extra mile. His office staff has been extremely helpful with all my needs.

I've been a patient of Dr. Trainors for almost a year now. He's been an amazing doctor to have. He's seen me go from my best to my worst. And he's stuck by me, listened, and always cared. I wouldn't be here today, loving on my kids, if it wasn't for him. I couldn't have asked for better care while going through cancer. Thank you Dr. Trainor, and staff, for all that you do!

Dr. Trainor helped my wife when a cancerous lymphnode was found 1 year after her thyroid removal. Dr. Trainor is wonderful. He's a straight shooter and is extremely knowledgeable. He is an expert in his field and keeps current on treatments and info. He did her surgery and it was a success. He removed the cancerous node and found 3 additional cancerous nodes that didn't show on the scans. Her scar looks amazing and is healing very well. He also has a dry sense of humor, which is refreshing.

I am ashamed of myself for waiting so long to submit a positive response for Dr. trainor. July of 2011 I was diagnosed with stage 4 throat/base tongue cancer. Dr. Trainor was professional courteous and thorough in his surgical procedures thus without a doubt saving my life. In each visit he was patient and explained in a laymans manner what he was doing and what to expect and proper care post surgery. It has been a long uphill battle and I thank Dr. Trainer for his superior knowledge.
