Professional and friendly
Spends needed amount of time to thoroughly explain everything to you, in terms you can understand. Very personable & professional.
Dr. Bassett was direct to the point. Great appointment.
Great Doctor
Dr. Bassett examined my knee and diagnosed a strain of my medial collateral ligaments. Recommended 4-6 weeks rest and PT to gradually strengthen.
Very disappointed. Pushed surgery again. When I said no he totally lost all interest. Gave a lame explanation for the swelling before even looking at my knee. Never mentioned aspiration which would have relieved the pain.
Dr. Basset is knowledgeable and professional. He has exceptional clinical skills and is continuing to work with me to reach my physical goals.
