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.

All I want is a response.
I liked Dr. Baack and his staff but I have a problem. Dr. Baack took a biopsy and I have tried numerous times to get the results but no luck. I have called, left messages and tried the portal to get answers but no luck. I even reset the username and password but I am locked out again. All I want is a simple call back and since this does concern a BIOPSY, I would really like a response.

Professional, gave a clear and simple explanation
Staff was pleasant and professional from receptionist to assistant . Dr. Baack examined my cysts first then gave his opinion. He then explained the surgery and promptly began. He told me when he had finished each one. He then reviewed post surgery recommendations and handed me a sheet detailing what he had advised. He informed me sample for one is being sent to the lab and I’d receive results in one week from his office via phone. The assistant and office worker were attentive and polite. The whole cost was a little over an hour.

Hand cancer surgery
I'm very pleased with the cancer removal on the back of my hand. The surgery went very smoothly, and the wound closure Dr. Baack did is closing very smoothly and comfortably. He and Dr Kalajian make an excellent team.

I've been trying to get an appointment with Dr. Baack for two months now. Twice through his web site. No reply. Then through his office; no call back and it's been 5 days. Would really like to get an appointment but don't know what I need to do short of standing on my head. That probably wouldn't get a response either. I don't understand why it's so hard.

Once I decided I was ready to have a breast lift/augmentation, I carefully considered all plastic surgeon options. I am a dermatology PA and so I've seen lots of good, bad, and ugly reconstructions. I have been very impressed with Dr. Baack's work and I'm glad I chose him to perform my surgery. My results are fantastic. He's a very skilled surgeon!

Dr. Bret Baack did a liposuction procedure on my legs, stomach, and love handle areas. He was very professional and made me feel very comfortable during appointments. His prices are incredibly reasonable and my results are amazing!!! The procedure has changed my life and I have him to thank. He is very talented at what he does and I would recommend him to anyone. He really enjoys what he does and wants his patients to be happy with their results! He is an amazing doctor and plastic surgeon!!!
