Dr. Kimberley Lisa Bauman, MD

As others have commented, Dr. Bauman always seems unfamiliar with me though I have seen her for years. I was without insurance for a time—when I left my employer to go back to graduate school—& when I tried to re-establish care with Dr. Bauman her office was LESS than supportive. They noted it had been a long time since I’d seen her & said I could not have Dr. B as my PCP if I was going to disappear again (?!) They essentially wanted me to contract with them that I would receive care from her indefinitely. It was very odd. Most recently, the practice—& even Dr. Bauman herself—left multiple voice messages telling me to call them back, that I was in arrears & was going to be dismissed as a patient & put into collections. I checked my records, sure that I had paid my bill from them. I had a $9 balance—which I was unaware of. It turns out the very routine “treatment” the nurse had provided to help remove ear wax (in ONE ear) had cost $113. I’m not sure how or why they can charge over $100… for a nurse to put hydrogen peroxide in one ear with a syringe & then “suction” it out with a turkey baster, but they did. The women who answer the phone at this practice are incredibly rude—whether you’re at the other end of the call or standing right in front of them at the office. I would encourage people to consider these things if planning to seek care with this provider.

I would not recommend this physician for multiple reasons. She has very poor bedside manner and is hyper focused on completing her charting during the exam. You will spend the majority of the visit talking to the back of her head as she types. She appears disinterested and also unfamiliar with my medical history despite seeing her for years. I would have given zero stars if I was able. Super unfriendly and consistently codes/bills incorrectly. Would not recommend!

Good Doctor, friendly, kind, sincere, good staff. you can get in and out of her office fast.

Does not really diagnose anything, if it is outside of a sore throat or very basic issue, you are referred to a specialist.

I would not recommend Dr. Bauman. Several months ago I had a health issue that she completely misdiagnosed, unfortunately causing further pain and damage. Most recently, I called her office to see if she would sign a form from ACAC allowing me to become a member for two months. It's part of ACAC's physician's referral program. First her office told me that she would not sign it until I came into the office for a physical. I understood that, so I tried to make the appointment. Then they told me that my last physical was ten months ago, so insurance would not pay for me to come early. I explained that I was a teacher, and therefore wanted to start the program while I was off for the summer. I asked if there was anything they could do. They checked with Dr. Bauman and the answer was no. Maybe I'm off base, but you'd think a doctor might be in favor of a patient trying to exercise. Needless to say, after I finish this review, I'll be online searching for another doctor.

seems dismissive. even if she has seeb hundreds of cases like mine, to me it is the 1st and only case. I don't feel she understands this.

Not a good doctor to go to if you are sick.
