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. Basala is very understanding and listened to what I had to say. When ordering a prescription he checked what my copay would be and if I could afford it be before he sent it to the pharmacy. Highly recommend Dr. Basala.

Dr. Basala saved my life when I delivered my first child in October of 1987 and I was hemorrhaging because my cervix tore. I am thankful to be alive, just wanted to give him credit here. I also went on to work as an OB/GYN RN after that. Thank you, Dr. Basala ??

I have been a patient of Dr Basala’s for 12 years or so. I recommend him highly. He and his staff are all very caring and professional. I travel 2 1/2 hours to get to Somerset from State College and he is always willing to listen and help. Not the typical in and out in 5 minutes. He takes plenty of time and treats you like a real person, not a medical ID number. I would travel 6 hours if I had to to continue my treatment with he and his staff. I highly recommend him.
