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.

Everyone very professional and caring. Dr, and staff explained everything that was going to be done.

Great Doctor
Wonderful staff, friendly, loved the heated blankets—let’s face it getting a colonoscopy isn’t something most look forward to but they made it pretty nice.

They Dont Really Care
If I could do zero I would. Been a patient like 7 years now. Couple years ago waited over 3 hours for my scheduled appointment. Wrote it off to a bad day. Today they call to change my appointment and push it out again. So my appoinment originally scheduled for this week has now been pushed back 2x. Been awaiting results and my consultation already for well over 2 months. Now it will be 3 months. office staff doesnt give a hoot. Not there body or problem so why care. Find an office that has time to spend with you and has availability for you as a patient and not a number.

Dr Baskar and his staff are exceptional. He is professional and caring. Dr Baskar has performed endoscopies and colonoscopies on both my husband and myself and each time we were impressed by the high standard of care. His waiting room can get a bit crowded so bring something to read.
