Reviews from Patients

I am from a medical family, so I have high standards in evaluating doctors. Dr. Bare was amazing in every regard! My daughter and I felt so much relief from his wisdom, care, and expertise. We will recommend him to everyone. What a gift!

Dr. Bare is a great communicator, reviewed all of my concerns, examined me closely, and immediately arranged for the physiotherapy he recommended, as well as setting me up with a referral for a sports medicine orthopoedist to address my related issues. I am delighted to have discovered Northwestern Orthopoedics and would certainky recommend them.

The provider was a good example of what a person should be/do. No arrogance, didn't talk to me like I was a complete idiot; wasn't offensive in his tone, and explained what was being done each step of the way; the interaction was pleasant.

You will not get any negative comments from me...ever. I have been 100% pleased with my care and progress. Everyone in my life are amazed with how much I have improved and how well I am doing. I barely need a cane and when I started coming there I needed a wheelchair. What more can I say!!

I went there for the first time not knowing what to expect. I & my niece who was accompanying me liked the rapport established w/ both the doctor & his PA and info provided. I feel at peace w/ my decision on upcoming surgery, trusting that they will take good care of me through it. That is very important to me!

I can't say enough about Dr. Bare and his PA. They are the most professional care providers I have met. The skills and education that these men have is above and beyond any of my expectations. I feel comfortable and I walk out knowing that I have received the best care and understanding. I could go on forever about them.
