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.

I think Dr Baugh is smart, but you, the patient, are not smart enough to ask a question or ask him to explain, so he ignores you. I found him very arrogant and unpleasant.

My wife has been going to Dr Baugh for Cervical Dystonia and has been receiving Botox injections with the use of the EMG machine. We have been seeing him for over ten years and in that time, he has always been courteous and professional in giving advice and treatment.

Dr. Baugh is one of my favorite people. We became established with him after my 16 year old son began having seizures. He was one of very few neurologists who was willing to see a patient under 18. For that we will always be grateful! He is very intelligent and knowledgeable about his field. He has never failed to take the time to answer all of our questions and address all of our concerns. His assistant Mary Ann is wonderful. She is very accessible for concerns and questions.

I have struggled with chronic migraines for many years. I have been to several neurologists who would not listen and refused to try something different. I was even sent to the ER several times for migraines that would not go away. There I was treated badly. Went I went to Dr. Baugh, he listened, he discussed the options, and we tried something different. I have even had to call the office when the migraine won't go away and he helped me do different things to feel better.

I have had 3 appointments with Dr. Baugh over the past month and a half. I found Dr. Baugh to be extremely professional. His testing and diagnostic procedures were excellent. I appreciated his honest, straight-forward manner in discussing my medical issues in terms I could understand. His staff were also very professional, referrals were well coordinated and timely. I would not hesitate to recommend Dr. Baugh to my family and friends.

He is very impatient, felt rushed and made you feel you were wasting his time. He immediately prescribed meds to be on for the rest of my life, without any attempt of finding causes or what was happening.

Treated me very poorly. Did not listen and was quite condescending as I was trying to explain symptoms. I would not advise anyone to ever go to him. Wasted my time and money. Not a very nice man.

Dr. Baugh was a very nice Doctor. My mother went to see him. at the end of the visit, she was told to pay her 20% she then asked to be billed and she was told by an employee named CRAIG that if she goes to the grocery store will she ask them to be billed. She was very upset and CRAIG made her cry. This was the worst experience my mother has ever had. CRAIG should be fired.
