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.

Great Surgeon
He was great and very informative. He was very open to my questions and was helpful in answering them. He explained what he did during the procedure and encourages me to call if I have any issues or questions.

Wonderful doctor. Very professional and compassion
Dr. Baxter saw me as an emergency. He was very courteous, professional, great bedside manners, and focused on my well being overall. He was informative, walked me step by step of what was going to happen and quickly got the care I needed. His follow up was thorough, made sure I was doing ok and made me feel very secure in my recovery. I would highly recommend him.

Very helpful and responsive
The first surgical procedure I ever went through and it was a breeze. He explained everything in detail and monitored closely after the procedure. I had some complications during the op due to normal individual differences and he alleviated all my concerns. I have a minor elective procedure I’ve been putting off but am much more comfortable having it done in a few months after meeting Dr Baxter.

Thanks Dr. Baxter!
I was admitted to the hospital for an emergency appendectomy and, lucky for me, Dr. Baxter was there to help. My situation was pretty severe and the expectation was that I would need to be opened up as opposed to a less invasive laparoscopic procedure. Due to Dr. Baxter's skill and care, he was able to do the procedure laparoscopically and I am very thankful for it. It would have been technically easier to break out the scalpels to get the job done and lesser skilled surgeon would not have been able to pull it off. His skill and care made the difference, which set me up for a rapid recovery. Dr. Baxter is an expert with compassion for his patients and I'm very thankful for it

I went to the ER with pain at 5 weeks postpartum. Once it was determined I need would surgery, I met Dr. Baxter. Dr. Baxter was professional and very friendly. He explained everything so I could understand, and always answered any questions. He listened and always made sure I was doing okay, especially since I had just had a baby. Very thankful he was my doctor.
