He believes that all patients deserve the “best of both worlds” and that an exceptional bedside manner and high degree of surgical expertise are equally important.
Having spent the majority of his life engaged in outdoor activities, Dr. Coyer understands the value of maintaining an active life style. He is a past competitor of the Cleveland Triathlon and is an avid cyclist. He is also an avid scuba diver and PADI Master Scuba Diver Trainer, looking forward to all that Orange County has to offer.
