I think the previous reviews saying never again requires a lot more information to make a proper judgment. My wife had a hip replacement recently and dr. Bathaw's attention and care was very good to excellent. He kept us well informed and the post surgical care has been excellent also. He has a very good staff and I really don't understand the review without comment giving him only one star and saying never again.
I went to doctor Bathaw and he was great! He all but took me to medical school with his graphic explanation of what is going on with my knee. I was totally happy with my visit. I see a few reviews that referred to him as not being patient or perhaps not taking up enough time with his patients. I am glad that was not my experience and he did take as much time with me as was necessary. He was also very gentle I would like to think that matters because you will not be seeing this type of physician if you are not in some kind of pain. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. When it comes to a choice as personal and sensitive as a physician best to form your own opinion of how you feel someone cared for you. Not to bash reviews at all just saying.
