Very professional and personable.
Today was my 1st time seeing Dr Baltera after he repaired the damaged tendons in my right hand. He thoroughly explained everything that had been done. I loved having this info & greatly appreciated his approach! He’s the best!
He’s great.
Professional, kind, good listener and obviously very competent.
I'm looking forward to a pain free days ahead. I truly believe I went to the right doctor.
Dr Baltera always explains exactly what's going on and gives several solutions for you to decide what's best.
I always get seen on time and was only there for 30 min total today. He knew exactly what’s wrong and already scheduled me for the next 2 stages for my pain.
He actually explained and did his job unlike the doctor's at the hospital
Very good
Very knowledgeable and thorough
