Extremely comforting and professional process with a lot of positive interaction with Dr. Bassett an

My ACL was torn in August of 2021. Dr. Bassett performed my surgery late August. She was always very comforting and positive at all of my checkups and had a lot of reassurance for me. The physical therapy helped me build a stronger ACL while building strong relationships with the people there. My overall experience was very positive and I would highly recommend Dr. Bassett to anyone with my injury.

ABSOLUTELY wonderful

came to dr bassett with horrible debilitating knee pain. MCL tear & pelligrini-stedia lesion. dr bassett was meticulous in creating a relaxing atmosphere in what should have been traumatic to some patients. i went into surgery with a big smile knowing i was in perfect, capable hands! being in a complete leg brace from groin to ankle for 2 months was a bummer but to see how far I've come has made it all worth while. the follow up appointments were positive & dr bassett kept my confidence up & kept me highly motivated to get me through. i am very grateful for all she has done.

Great

In August I separated my AC joint in my shoulder. The first week of September I got surgery and have been doing better ever since. The recovery went super smooth and was easy. 4 to 5 months later everything feels great and now I can go to school and start my career. Thank you for everything!

Excellence, in patient care.

Dr. Bassett, was wonderful from my first to, last visit. I had torn my ACL and had surgery to repair it. She listened to all my concerns and answered them in away that was easy to understand. Thank you Dr. Bassett for getting me back to all the activities I enjoy doing. I would highly recommend you, without hesitation.

really good :)

I had torn my ACL and both meniscus in high school soccer my senior year. I received ACL reconstruction surgery and my meniscus was repaired as well and I believe that with Dr. Bassett, this went as smooth as it could have possibly gone. She was very good at communicating and answering my questions whenever I had any, and after I told them that I needed to be ready for College soccer by a certain time, they worked with me to get there, doing it safely and cautiously all the time. You can tell that they really care about you here and that is something that provided me comfort especially through my long recovery. Thank you! :)

Great Exerience

Dr. Bassett was fantastic. I had fractured my tibia on the right and tore my meniscus on the left, which brought me to her office. She was so caring and compassionate, and offered viable options for treatment besides surgery. Ultimately, I required surgery, but Dr. Bassett and her team were fantastic. One year later, I am back to my old self!

excellent

The procedure I had done was to repair a tear in the long head of the biceps. The diagnosis was done very quickly and accurately using the results of an mri to determine the urgency of surgery. The mri reveal the tendon was barely hanging on by a threat to its natural attachment location and there was not fear of losing the tendon and complicating surgery. The operation went very smoothly as well as the recovery. Personally I thought that the recovery would take a lot longer. The SLAP tear was also cleaned up and feels better than prior to surgery when sleeping.

good

I had a plica removal surgery in January. After a year, 5 different orthopedic specialist's opinions and several months of physical therapy Dr. Bassett finally figured out what was wrong and got rid of all of my pain! I has been 3 months since my surgery and I am completely pain free.

Rotator Cuff

From start to finish Dr. Bassett was highly involved with me and my injury. She presented the results well and made sure that I was going to be dedicated to the recovery as much as the Surgery. With multiple tears and injuries to fix, I found myself doing things i coulnt before the surgery within 12 weeks. As the healing progressed, and the Office visits as well, within 4 months I was no longer having pain or issues with the Shoulder. Within the last few visits, a plan was laid out and was fulfilled with me being released in 6 months. I coulnt have asked for a more professional Doctor or plan to fix and heal my shoulder.

Dr. Bassett was absolutely wonderful!

I came to Dr. Bassett for a second opinion about knee surgery and immediately chose her to be my doctor and surgeon. She took her time with me and really listened to my questions and concerns. She explained every step of my treatment in great detail and was patient with all my questions. She is also a lovely person, which was also nice!

Excellent

Dr. Bassett is a pro! I felt comfortable with her immediately. I could tell she had plenty of experience with knee pain as she related my experience with other patients who wanted to run. She communicates very well and we worked on a plan that we both felt comfortable with based on my goals and level of activity. During surgery I felt comfortable and had a great experience before and after. Her follow up is excellent!
