      Dr. Bauer was excellent. We are so glad we found him. He is knowledgeable and patient. Takes time to listen and understand. He answered all questions. He was thorough with his examination. We are definitely going back. I highly recommend him.

      My daughter loves this doctor. We even drive 30 minutes to see him. He connected with her through her love of theater.
