just so easy to talk to !
Great resource for advice on shoulder issues. Carl offered non-surgical options that other doctors had not. Highly recommended!
Half hour late for appointment. Otherwise, he’s great.
The Best car I’ve ever had from everyone there
Dr Basamania does a great job of thoroughly explaining MRI results and going over treatment options.
Dr B is always professional and kind
Happy warrior. Wish I jumped ship earlier and got treatment from Dr B sooner
They made it easy.
Very highly respected doctor.
I am so much more confident and informed after talking with Dr. Basamania. I am hopeful that I will have wonderful options and ultimate care.
