Patient Reviews
Nov 24, 2024
I was a direct admit to the hospital so I didn’t meet Dr. Bauer until the day before surgery. He took his time and explained what was going to happen and eased my anxiety. We even talked about what music he might play in the operating room. He prayed with me that afternoon and brought me additional comfort. Every time he talked to me and my family after the surgery he reassured us about the surgery and the road to recovery. His staff was exceptional and communicated with me better than any doctor’s office I’ve ever dealt with. If ever anyone earned a perfect score it would be Dr. Bauer, the Captain of my team Bauer.
