Dr. Baskin was very friendly and he took his time to explain the procedure to me in detail. Plus I didn’t have to wait like a lot of other doctors do.
Dr. Baskin did my neck surgery on Sept. 9, 2025. I saw him today. He listened to my concerns, gave me the information I needed, was pleasant, staff as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Baskin a good surgeon to anyone that needs care.
I have never experienced a smarter, kinder or more empathetic Dr. Dr. Baskin listened and cared about helping me deal with my pain experiences and getting my life back on track. Yes, I will need surgery but right now I am walking upright because of him.
Dr Baskin is a caring, thoughtful surgeon. He listens to concerns and addresses them. I’m grateful to him for his attention to detail and level of care. Cheryl F
