Dr Baer made time to see me right away due to the nature of my situation. He explained things that we needed to know about my previous plateau surgery In Nebraska and gave us assurance and hope and profession advice that saved me from enduring another unnecessary surgical procedure that probably would have destroyed the work done in that previous surgery. I’ve turned my care over to him and would recommend him to anyone and everyone! We are so thankful to have found him.

Dr. Baer was such a blessing to my 15 yo son and our family. He broke his tibia close to the end of the football season (October) and was devastated. Dr. Baer was very knowledgeable & professional, with amazing bedside manner. My son was comfortable and he asked questions to make sure he did everything correct. By explaining treatments and instructions thoroughly, my son was able to start training & building strength for spring track in January. I would highly recommend Dr. Baer to any family of a student athlete, to ensure that their future continues to look up and have high hopes with the correct healing and treatment!

Dr Baer and staff have been professional and punctual. But most importantly, everyone has had an excellent bedside manner. From desk, to nurses, PA's and Dr Baer, I've always felt respected.

He helped my daughter with a broken elbow, and on a separate occasion, my 7-yr-old son with a broken ankle. He was excellent with my kids, helping them feel comfortable and relaxed as he worked with them. Hopefully we won't need to go back to him. But, if we do, I would definitely go to him again.
