Dr Masden was very personable and kind. He gave me lots of information and things to try before surgery will become necessary. He made me feel very comfortable and was very thorough with the medical history as well as the examination.

The entire visit felt rushed The doctor lacked concern of your questions and concerns. He was just too in a hurry to move on which leaves you to think he was disgusted my the view and in a hurry to move on to the next patient

As always, Dr. Masden was professional and patiently answered all of my questions and has an action plan for my health. I never feel rushed during my visits. He actually listens. I highly recommend him. He is the best!!
December 31, 2016Kimberly G.Verified patient
Always professional, compassionate and patient. Always takes his time and explaining answers to whatever questions I have and making sure I am comfortable in the course of recommended treatment - often times including an illustration in the explanation. Provides pros and cons, risks and benefits. He is not quick to rush to having a surgical procedure but allowing the body to do its work and monitoring progress. I feel that he listens to me and my concerns. He is excellent doctor and I would highly recommend him.
February 26, 2016Kimberly G.Verified patient
Dr. Masden did reconstructive surgery on me after a surgical wound (by a different surgeon) opened up. He listened to my unique needs, and though my recovery will be long, he's made it possible to live a life in the meantime. He is also down to earth but confident and professional. I highly recommend Dr. Masden.
