Patient Reviews
Feb 09, 2018
Dr Bax is a highly educated MD in Ortho a extremely knowledgeable orthopedic surgeon an runs a professional medical practice, I have been a patient for 10+yrs. Awfully rude , ignorant communication skills to patients regarding billing issues insurance types etc. Had a horrible experience w/manager "kathy" who has a very bad attitude towards her office staff as well as most importantly dr baxs patients.I would assume the dr. Does not know how horrible that women's makes his medical practice look
