I started with weight management counseling and was really impressed with Dr Baxter's practical approach. He explained things clearly and I felt supported every step of the way. Gympie is lucky to have a surgeon who takes time to listen.
Had a laparoscopic surgery consultation with Dr Baxter and felt at ease from the first chat. He broke down the procedure, risks, and recovery honestly. I appreciated the follow-up and his team in Gympie.
After years of trying diets, I finally spoke to Dr Baxter about weight management. His nutrition assessment was spot on and his plan is realistic for living in the Mary Valley. Highly recommended.
Great experience in Gympie. Dr Baxter listened to my concerns about hernia symptoms and offered clear options. The consultation was thorough but not overwhelming, which I really appreciated.
Was nervous about surgery, but Dr Baxter explained everything during the laparoscopic surgery consultation and made the whole process feel manageable. Friendly staff and comfortable clinic environment.
I needed a weight management plan that fit with my work in Noosa hinterland, and Dr Baxter delivered. Realistic targets, steady progress, and a reassuring approach. Thanks for keeping me motivated.
From the first appointment at 71 Channon Street, I felt in capable hands. Dr Baxter discussed hernia repair options and suggested a plan that worked for my lifestyle. Felt supported every step of the way.
