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.

She is the best doctor I have ever had. You can tell she genuinely cares about her patients. She is one in a million!!!!

I have just started seeing her. She's attentive. Asked me about my health history. Was very kind and nice. I've suffered from many chronic health problems for years. It's nice to have a Dr that listens. Those of us that have chronic illiness. Know how hard it is to switch to a new provider.

Far and above the best visit to a doctor's office I've ever had! Dr Baumgart not only took the time to listen to my medical history as a new patient of hers, but also answered all my questions in a way that I could understand them. I'd highly recommend her as a primary care physician.

Dr. Baumgart is the best doctor that Illinois has ever had the privilege of having as a physician. Dr. Baumgart is caring, loving and knows what she is doing when is comes to patient care. Dr. Baumgart saved my life when I thought that know one would ever figure out what was wrong with me she listened to my every word did all the right test and got the answers. I have been dealing with this illness for at least 7 years and be misdiagnosed several times, God gave me the best in Dr. Baumgart.

I was looking for a new provider and after much thought I decided to give her a try. I liked her, she listened and inquired about what I was telling her-showed real interest in the conversation. She is pleasant and seems knowledgeable and sincere. I needed medication refills and I followed through with the labs she ordered and visited her a second time for the refills. I will probably return. Although I didn't find the staff overly friendly or welcoming, not rude just kind of cold.

She seemed very precise. I am a new patient with her, and was surprised when I didn't have to fill out a medical history. To my surprise, she asked me specifically about my medical history every question and wrote it down in her notes. Like I said, this was my first visit, but I am already in relief from the prescribed medicines. We are hoping to make her my family's primary.
