I couldn't have ended up in the hands of a better Doctor. Dr. Baer spent the time explaining the procedure, supporting my emotional rollercoaster of emotions and has a great bedside manner and a wonderful sense of humor.

Doctor Baer repaired both my knee's and my right shoulder, I believe his is the most gifted orthopedic surgeon in the country and quite possibly the world. His staff of physician assistant's are excellent as well. I have sent several of my friends to see Dr. Geoffrey Baer MD, PHD

Except for waiting over 0.5 hours (even early appts), my experience with Dr. Baer and support staff is wonderful. His knowledge and skill is equaled by his genuine compassion and kindness.

Dr. Baer is an awesome surgeon with a strong reputation for being excellent at his craft. I was very impressed with his bed side manner as well as his ability to get the job done. He knows what he is doing and if you have an orthopedic injury that may involve surgery Dr. Baer is the one you want to see. He is a busy Doctor so be patient with scheduling.

bed side manner stunk, rude, abrasive, seems to be lacking that filter in his brain that tells him what to say and what not to say. i know i am fat he didn't need to point that out but when a patient is in pain you don't tell them it's because you are fat and if you would lose weight you wouldn't hurt. i hurt before i got fat why do you think i got that way cause it hurt to move. staff was great he sucked. he even saw my MRI and saw the problem but wouldn't do anything about it.
