Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Baldes misdiagnosed PTSD and traumatized my...
… my family, who is a military family. I am twenty-three years as a Drill Sergeant in the US Army and watched my comrades lose limbs in Vietnam. I come from a military family, as my father and grandfather served in the US Air Force and have extensive knowledge on the performance of psychiatrists. Dr. Baldes neglected to perform the necessary duties in the event that PTSD was concerned. Misdiagnosed me and overcharged for practices. A complete negligence. I will be reporting Dr. Baldes to the Minnesota Medical Board. I have already spoken with Dr. Balde’s boss, and this doctor here, Dr. Baldes, will be reprimanded.My family puts integrity first before anything, and will continue to press charges on the scam that Dr. Baldes operates.

He and the staff ignore the fact that I want my girlfriend released to me. They want to force her to do what they want and not what she wants. SHE wants to come home to me & they aren't making that happen.

Dr. Baldes has exhibited a level of knowledge regarding fibromyalgia that allowed me to trust his judgement and medication choices for me. I suffer from several conditions and he knows the regimens for incorporating multiple medications to optimize the effectiveness. When I have a set back, he is alert to reacting to it medically as well as taking his time to provide psychiatric level therapy.
