Recently, I went in to get my knee checked out, and I can’t thank Dr. Bauer enough for his care and expert opinion. He is a doctor who knows what he is doing and provided me with the best options to help get healed up. I highly recommend him. Thanks again Dr. Bauer!

I am tennis player and hurt my knee. Doctor Bauer was great, got an X ray that day. He sent a lot of time with me evaluating my injury and was critical for helping me in my recovery. I would recommend Doctor Bauer for Athletes. Nobody in the business better than him. Thank you.
