Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Review for arthritis RA and Osteoarthritis.
This was a first appointment resulting from relocation to South Dakota. I believe her approach will work well for me. She was thorough and stated her opinion and her approach to my treatment going forward. I was in agreement with everything. She has the ability to cut through to the noise and get to the issues. I look forward to having her as my Doctor.

I've been seeing Dr. Bassing for 2 years and I appreciate her kind bed side manner, how thorough and proactive she is in diagnosing and treating multiple auto immune conditions. I never leave feeling like she didn't hear me. Even as busy as she is, her appts typically run on time and always follows up personally with results. Hate to recommend her in some ways, as it may affect me getting appt in the future!
