I travel over an hour and a half to come see Dr. Bauer once a year for my lung screening. There is nothing that this provider can improve on. He is excellent. And I will see him until he tells me I don't need to anymore. And then I will be very sad. There's very few doctors that have the compassion and the genuine love and care for his patients that this doctor has.

Dr Bauer knows my medical history and knows me. He explains everything and ensures I understand.

Really, really enjoyed my appointment with Dr. Bauer, who's not only clearly brilliant--i trust his judgment completely-- but thoughtful, kind, compassionate, understanding, great at explaining, & even--just one more plus--expressed interest in the book i was reading while waiting for him ( not that i waited for more than a couple of minutes ?). An all-round great person & MD. & the receptionist who signed me in and assistant who weighed me & took my blood pressure were lovely too. Definitely a five-star experience!

Professional helpful staff. Doctor spent time with me explained my diagnosis (nodules) follow up and why.

The doctor spent lots of time explaining the issues to me, and I appreciated their being. I think he referred to her as a PA in the room who was doing all the typing, so the doctor didn't have to keep looking at the computer. He was just focusing on me and my problem. I really appreciated that. He took plenty of time to study and explain through the visit.
