On Friday March 17,2023 I saw Dr. Bauwens he is one of the worst doctors I've ever dealt with. He was recommended by my family doctor after an X-ray showed I had arthritis in my hip. On my first meeting with doctor Bauwens I should have listened to my gut that this guy was very none caring and aloof. I had to ask to see the X-ray and he show it to me not on a clear screen but on a print out that wasn't very clear. He didn't explain anything. Very unprofessional! He was quick to have me make an appointment for a robotic cortisone shot in the hip.When he performed the robotic shot I screamed out in excruciating pain and kept yelling it felt like he was going into my muscles. He said nothing and just continued using his unskilled technique on me. when he had finished there was no apology for the pain or stress I had been put through. He just waltzed out of the room. Still very much in pain ,a week later ,I called his office and was told to give it another week and call back which I did. Now I was told to have physical therapy. I had a consultation with a physical therapist and was told by the therapist that I might have inflamed muscles and that I should go to another orthopedic doctor to find out what is going on before she treats me so as to not do anymore harm.Today I'm making that appointment. Today a month later I still have pain in my hip.My experience is that Dr. Bauwems doesn't know his business or have any empathy for his patients . I'd like to call it QUACKERY!!!! read more
