Patient Reviews
Mar 08, 2025
Being relatively new to the Topeka area, I was recommended to Dr. Baum by my primary care physician for a colonoscopy and an endoscopy. His nursing staff was incredible! They were attentive, knowledgeable, kind, and calming. I had both procedures done at the same time and was very nervous. Dr. Baum came in to relieve my anxiety and allow me to ask any questions I had before the procedures. He was knowledgeable, personable, and professional. None of us ever likes going to an internist because it may indicate that there’s something amiss with our health. But Dr. Baum and his staff are the kind of professionals we all hope to find when looking for someone to assist us with our healthcare issues. So, if you’re looking for a gastroenterologist with exemplary professionalism, expertise,, and phenomenal staff, this is the practice you should seriously consider. You’ll not be disappointed.
