I saw Dr. Jones at the residence clinic the other day, and I think that she was very nice. She was very personable. She was very helpful. She explained everything to me. She was really interested in hearing what I had to say. So I would definitely recommend her to other people, and hopefully I'll see her in the future.

Dr. Bauer was very professional and explained everything about my issue and it's resolution very thoroughly in a way I could understand. He has a special personality that truly touched me in a way that was incredibly positive and encouraging. He made me know that I'm in very good hands and that he is going to take good care of me. I felt so good about my meeting him. My mother who was with me felt the exact same about Dr Bauer as I do. He is wonderful and I'm so grateful I found him.

As this is likely the last time I will meet with Dr Bauer, I just want to say how appreciative I am of his care and expertise. It has not been an easy year for me, but it has been made easier by the doctors and nurses and staff who have been involved with me all along the way. Dr Bauer has been kind, forthright, never condescending or paternalistic, able to reassure me when needed, educate me, and be clear about his knowledge, expertise and authority in his field. I have the greatest respect for him and how he works and how he communicates and responds.

I want to thank the entire Cooper Trauma ER team. They were kind, friendly and compassionate in the care they provided to my daughter. To say that they are all exceptional does not do them justice. One can only imagine what the team must see and experience so to be able to make the patient and their family feel like you are the only patient they are attending to is a skill. We were lucky that day that our daughter's injuries were minor but the treatment provided was first class. May the angels watch over you all as you all have a special gift that you share with all your patients by working in the specialty that you do.
