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.

Thorough and conscientious
Dr. John Bashant has been my personal physician for the last 14 years or so. He is thoughtful and thorough in his approach to evidence based medicine. We have disagreed at times, but I have no doubts that my health is his primary concern. Specific details don't matter in a review of a primary care doctor, as it is all about the relationship. I trust him. Highly recommended.

Good bedside manner but after 2 visits feel we're just NOT on the same page! Sadly, looking for another primary doctor/internal medicine. Currently have lots of health issues going on at once. Need someone to oversee, advise & coordinate treatment by multiple specialists. I don't believe we "get" each other!

My health insurance provider posted this doctor as accepting new patients. When I called and walked through the longer than average I spoke with someone who said he was not accepting new patients. The attitude was not rude but not pleasant & there was no offer of other doctors in the practice who might be taking new patients. I felt like I was being treated like cattle.
