  • “Dr. Dunn is attentive, listens to patient concerns, and works to resolve the problem using the least invasive approach that will get results. I've been his patient for 20+ years, and after five surgeries the quality of life I have is a testament to his judgment and skills. I couldn't be more satisfied or happy. ”

  • “Dr. Bassewitz has performed two major surgeries on me. The care I have received from both the doctor and his entire staff as well as everyone working in all areas of this practice has been exceptional. Not to mention the outcome of both surgeries has far exceeded any hope I had. I only wish I could express my gratitude more eloquently.”

  • “I can’t say enough about Dr. Dunn, and the entire DOC staff! They’re amazing! These people genuinely care about you and do whatever they can to help you. It’s hard to find doctors and healthcare staff like the ones at DOC. I’ve referred several friends, and they all had great experiences with them as well.”
