Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Best Doctor I've Ever Had!
I saw Dr. Derek Bast while I was living in Indianapolis from October 2022 to February 2024. He was excellent - surprisingly so. He listened and engaged with my own concerns & experiences. He involved me in my treatment plan and made sure I was comfortable with (and aware of the reasoning behind) any medication changes.While seeing Dr. Bast, he was incredible helpful & supportive with the following health needs: mental health support, sexual health, and general health & preventative care.Easy to talk to, easy to work with, and easy to contact via MyChart - Dr. Bast is an excellent doctor and his standards of care are the rubric I've been using to find a new doctor now that I've moved out of state.

Excellent doc who really cares for his patients
Dr. Bast spends as much time as needed everytime I have seen him. He never appears rushed and makes me feel he wants the best for me.

Find a different doctor
Dr. Bast will write dorogatory remarks about you, to the point of falsehoods, lies, on MyChart if he doesn't agree with you. Using the word substances instead of the vitamin supplements. Big difference.
