Dr Baxter is a phenomenal man. I have used him for both my children and my husband and I are very pleased with our experience's. Wait time is extremely short. The visits were brief but he would always take any time to answer any and all questions we had. He and the staff were all very helpful. I had a vaginal birth, which I feel he did very well with and kept me well informed on my progress. I will certainly go back to him and would recommend him to any woman.

Dr. Baxter was very punctual for pregnancy check-ups, which I loved!! During those check-ups he kept things brief, but was always willing to answer any questions I had. If I were rating him on check-ups, he'd get 5 stars--awesome. The delivery though. . . awful. I was induced, which was fine, but when he came in to check on me, he broke my water before I knew what was going on, while my husband was across the room on the phone--I was so bewildered by what was happening, and hated that he didn't even ask if that was okay. Then I mostly delivered my baby with a nurse present, and he barely made it in by the very end. I felt that his priority was punctuality/moving things along quickly as opposed to taking into consideration the feelings/desires of the patient. My sister-in-law had a c-section with him and had nothing but good things to say about him, but for vaginal births, I'd recommend someone else.

Dr. Baxter is very respectful and nice. He is busy it seems, but never to the point where I feel slighted. He has always given me whatever information I need and does a great job. Me, a couple of my friends and family members all use him and we all feel the same, he is great.

Showed up at the last minute (literally) for my delivery. The nurse kept trying to find him, but couldn't. I had to stop pushing and wait through several contractions so the baby didn't come while he wasn't there. During the delivery and while he was stitching me up, he didn't explain anything he was doing and then the next day forgot to check me as he made his rounds at the hospital. His partner did it later that night.

I had a baby with a serous problem that was not caught before delivery. At the end of my pregnancy Dr. Baxter keep ask me when I was due, and I keep think to myself I don't know your the doctor. I was measuring bigger then I should have been and Dr. Baxter didn't bother to order an ultrasound. Had he order another ultrasound the problem could have been caught and maybe my baby could have lived. Dr Baxter also didn't bother to look at my hips and due to how small I am the baby got caught in my hips. It was a horrible delivery on top of all the other problems this baby had, she also had cerebral palsy. I was full term 35 weeks and 5 days, so almost 36 weeks. I never got a call for Dr. Baxter after the baby passed away. I did however have the baby on a Wednesday, and she passed away on Thursday, and his office called on Friday to confirm my appointment for Monday. What horrible communication skills he must have with his office staff. I would never recommend this doctor.

I''ve heard a few comments from others about Dr. Baxter that imply they don''t like him. I think mostly because he is an in and out kind of doctor... I have always found that he answers my questions appropriately and makes sure everything is going well at my appointments. I NEVER have had to wait long which is a major plus. I don''t know what kind of relationship people expaect to have with their OB, but he is great, fast but personable, friendly and nice. I would recommend him to friends.

He was o.k. I thought he was always in a hurry, also didn't like that fact that he wanted to do a c-section, when it was not even necessary.

Dr. Baxter is a nice person. He did a great job treating me in my teens for problems I had. He did a great job with fertility issues I had when trying to become pregnant. However he was very unsupportive of my wanting a natural/drug free childbirth. (I'm not one of those fanatic freaks, I just wanted to do it without drugs.) He told me I would not be able to do it, that I would fail and ask for an epidural. In my last appointment before having my child he stripped my membranes without asking me or telling me. I bled a lot. It hurt like crazy but it was my first child and I didn't know what he was doing. He broke my water in the hospital without asking/telling me. (We had talked earlier about not breaking my water.) I did go on to have a natural birth. He showed up as I was pushing. If you aren't bothered by a doctor not talking to you about what they're doing then he's great for you. For me he was a great Gyno, (he is also good at being on time), but NOT a good OB.
