When my previous doctor retired, she recommended Dr. Backens. I had never even heard of him, but I am so glad she referred me. I'm very discriminating and careful about the doctors I pick; and honestly, there's nothing that I don't like about Dr. Backens or his genuinely caring, cheerful, accommodating staff. He is gracious, very knowledgeable, friendly, and humble. He has a gentle bedside manner and really listens to you with no 'airs'. He acts on your suggestions and is very thorough in making sure everything is done that ... read more

Dr. Matthew Backens failed to find two kidneys stones I had. I went to him several times in the time frame of two months complaining of abdominal pains and he did several labs (over a period of those two months), there was blood in my urine and he was mystified of why. Yet he did not do the appropriate testing to find out what was causing this pain I was having. His PA didn't' impress me either and missed it too, ordering a pelvic ultrasound which showed nothing wrong, while I still was having horrible pain. I called his off... read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Bakens for several years. He is patient kind and always takes as much time as needed to answer any questions or concerns. He even calls you to go over tests results personally. Would highly recommend him .

Wait time on hold to notify office I had arrived was very long. After that fine.
