I almost never write reviews, although I know it is my civic duty to do so. In this case, I felt compelled to protect others from this doctor by revealing my experience. I came to this doctor for a second opinion on many GI issues, including Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth (SIBO). I was experiencing bloating, constipation, nausea, fatigue, trouble thinking clearly, and dizziness. I was on a restrictive diet, having tried various types, had had many medical tests, and taken many medications and supplements. I had even tried, under the direction of a physician, fecal transplants. I would get better, then regress. There was a piece of the puzzle that was missing, and I thought Dr. Basuk might be able to help with that. First off, he had a very brisk, harried manner to him and seemed quite distracted and indifferent. He took a look at the records I had brought from other doctors and said things like, "You don't have SIBO. SIBO doesn't exist in people like you." He disagreed with everything the other doctors had expressed was wrong with me and the treatments they had prescribed. When I told him about the fecal transplants, that's when he really let loose. He said they were dangerous and I was very foolish to have done them. The FDA has approved fecal transplants for use in people with C-Difficile Toxin, and while they haven't yet been approved for use in other illnesses, there have been no serious outcomes among those who have had them done. They have helped to treat and cure thousands of people suffering from Ulcerative Colitis, Crohn's, and other gut disorders. At the end of his rampage, his advice for me was to do a low FODMAP diet (WHICH I WAS ALREADY ON) and see a therapist. If I had not had other doctors I trusted to fall back on, this visit would have devastated me. To be suffering and putting in the work to try to get better, wanting to get your life back, and to be given such trivial advice by someone in a position of power like a doctor, is egregious and unethical. It's a harkening back to the old times when doctors thought all gut complaints were in people's heads. Turns out, the gut and head (brain) are connected, so if you heal the gut, you heal the brain. The missing piece of the puzzle for me was undiagnosed Hashimoto's. Once I got this under control, all of my issues improved dramatically, and I am miles better today than I was with a much more diverse diet. Thank goodness for doctors like the one who diagnosed me who think outside the box, keep up with the current research, and who are still in the profession to do no harm. read more
