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.

Compassionate, Kind, Collaborative
I’ve been seeing Dr. Baskind for a few years and enjoy going to her even though I have to travel more to see her. She takes my concerns seriously and I always believe she is thinking about my health as much as I am.

Excellent care
Dr Baskind stands out as a doctor who always seems to remember the specifics of my medical history, is an extraordinarily careful listener, and whose medical advice has been spot on over the five years I have had her as my primary physician.
