Dr. Baskin and her staff are absolutely amazing! Dr. Baskin is kind, compassionate and absolutely knowledgeable in what she does! She is able to apply her impeccable knowledge and expertise and give her patience the exceptional care they need. She is able to take hard, difficult information and explain it in a way you understand while taking the time to listen to you and your concerns with wisdom and kindness. I always know I’m in the best hands under her care. Dr. Baskin is a true gift and you cannot go wrong with Dr Baskin.

A physician-friend recommended Dr Baskin. Dr Baskin listens & cares deeply. My first surgical experience with her was excellent - before, during & after surgery. Later, when a different type of cancer was found, she, again, carefully considered past treatments & developed an amazing plan to ensure all cancer cells were surgically removed. She and her team exceed my expectations: I always have questions, want to understand & know what to expect. She & her staff patiently provide the information.
