Patient Reviews
Jul 22, 2020
just now I trust Dr. Bacon with my life. I know he is knowledgeable about my disease and has given me excellent care over the past 7 years. Sometimes you have to get him to slow down and have him hear you say you need to talk, then he slows his pace. Sometimes he is quick, as all doctors are but if you say you need time he gives it. I never plan on changing rheumatologists unless I have no other choice. The infusion room staff is amazing as well as the rest of the office staff. I love my doctor and my nurses there
