"This was the second time that I met with Dr. Bauman. He hasn't changed from the first time that I met him. He is straight forward and to the point. I truly believes that he cares for you as if you are his only patient. He stresses how important it is to be commited to losing way, following up with all of your appointments, making sure that you achive optimal results. rnHis office staff is very patient. I know that I have bugged them with all of my questions. Everytime they tell me what I want to know and they do it in a pleasant way. I guess they have been working there for so long and they are use to people calling all of the time so they understand. rnOverall I would rate Dr. Bauman at superior. He has made every effort to make you feel comfortable as soon as you enter thr front doors. I mean with the decor of the furniture you know that he has given careful thought into making you feel comfortable. He provides access to the computer so that you can research, fill out your forms, or utilize other tools that are available on line. rnI would recommend Dr. Bauman to anyone who is thinking about having WLS."
