Dr. Larry Bader isa wonderful knowledgabrle doctor. Defiantely the best. If not for him I might not be able to walk. Sad he retired. I will not find the comfort that hee and his wife gave me. Explained everything in detail and answered any questions I ever had.

He knows where my pain is located, and knows the manipulation to relieve it. My first impression of Dr. Bader was when I arrived early for my first appointment to see some guy walking out to feed the birds and squirrels...I was touched. When the Dr. walked into the exam room, I realized that he was the wildlife feeder. A kind and healing man.

I have had back problems for several years. Dr. Badder was the first Doctor I have seen that really listened to my problems. With his help I have become much stronger and more active. It is rare now for me to have my back go out like it use to.

I have NEVER had a doctor spend time explaining things to me like Dr. Bader did. I actually had time to ask him questions and he gave me answers, and not short ones to get me out of his hair. He took the time to explain things to me and I didn't feel like just another patient. He is the best of the best!!!!!

Dr. Bader has to be one of the best back doctors around. He diagnosed my back problem several years ago when 4 previous doctors could not. I am receiving prolotherapy from Dr. Bader on an as needed basis -- about every 1 to 2 years. If I would do my exercises like Dr. Bader instructed me to do, I may not have to have prolotherapy any further. I will be going forward with a better attitute towards exercise and health fitness. Getting older makes it harder, so start when he tells you! He knows what he is talking about! I don't want Dr. Bader to retire, but I know some day in the near future he will and I will miss him and Carol and Sharon. They are wonderful, caring people and Dr. Bader is the best in his field in my opinion.
