Wasn't the nicest doctor seemed a lil in a hurry.
Dr. Balk is an amazing doctor/surgeon! He really takes time to listen to your concerns, explains everything in detail and does not push you in any direction. You will leave your appointment fully informed and clear on your course of action. Thank you so much Dr.Balk!
Excellent care
I would not go anyplace else. Dr. BALK is excellent. Plus, he is compassionate, explains everything in detail, very easy to talk to. I highly recommend him if you’re looking for a hand specialist/surgeon.
Tremendous person. Tremendous doctor. Explained everything. Didn’t talk down to me. I understand everything he said
Dr. Balk is very meticulous and did a great job of diagnosing my issue and coming up with a plan of treatment.
office personnel were great and it did not drop off when the Dr took over! I am pleased to give the group the best possible rec!
Excellent Dr Very Kind
Have been a patient of Dr. Balk’s for years. He’s very friendly and most importantly, he is very very good. He explains everything and tells you all your options and then his recommendations!!
He does a great job explaining the procedure and what comes next. Really seems to care about the patients. Dr Balk has had to do 4 surgeries on my hands and if there would need to be a fifth I would only have him do it.
