Dr. Bauman spent a long time patiently answering all my questions. I was planning on getting a second opinion but after meeting w Dr. Bauman I concluded he explained everything so well....there is no need for a 2nd opinion.

I've been patient of dr Bauman for several years and 2 surgeries. I can't say enough about how highly I regard him and have passed his name along to others when it came up. One patient he has now is because I gave person his name. She had already seen 2 neurosurgeons but when she saw dr Bauman she switched to him and has been delighted with how her life has improved at his skilled hands.
