List of Howard B. Baum's Reviews
I had the chance to visit with Dr. Baum yesterday for the first time. I originally had an appointment in January but they had to push it out 3 MONTHS because he was out. First red flag. Secondly I walked in and explained my story. I have had a thyroid nodule for over a year and not a single doctor has biopsied it after it was found on the ultrasound. When I said that he said, "well yeah they shouldn't, it's not a big deal." I am 23. Then I went on to explain how this nodule has caused issues to my energy level, weight gain, anxiety and depression, and stomach issues. He blew that off and said that not of that was related. He told me that my nodule was mildly suspicious but just said, "we'll do blood work but I won't biopsy. sorry" I was crying because I felt hopeless then he proceeded to say "can you stop crying so that when you walk into the lobby, it doesn't give a bad look to other patients?" DO NOT COME TO THIS DOCTOR IF YOU ACTUALLY WANT HELP. EXTREMELY INVALIDATING AND HORRIBLE.

Ridiculous experience. Over Christmas, I had tested positive on a rapid test for Covid. I had already been vaccinated. I felt sick and isolated for the required time and recovered. In January and February, I was able to go to Vanderbilt for other appointments as I was well out of the quarantine period. Last week (also February), because of an upcoming surgery, I had to take a PCR test and was positive due to having Covid in December. I was told the PCR would possibly be positive for MONTHS but I was no longer contagious. I went to other appointments at Vanderbilt and the providers understood. I went for my first appointment today with Dr. Baum, I was told by the front desk that Dr. Baum "felt uncomfortable" seeing me. I was not able to even check in. No one even called to warn me. In the patient portal, I state when exactly I tested positive in December and when I recovered. The PCR test is also there. I was probably the least-risky person in the entire office.

Followup for acromegaly, hyperparathyroidism, and surgical hypothyroidism. Dr Baum is intelligent, well informed, and an excellent communicator. I feel fortunate to be his patient.

Really seems to be interested in my general well-being, as well as my diabetes. Takes the time to analyze potential problems, and discusses how to solve them. All-around great doctor!

I’ve known him for just a short time, and he seems to be very knowledgeable, and has excellent bedside manners.

Selection Criteria
All the information you see here is based on our analysis of internet reviews across the seven major review platforms most used by consumers during their healthcare provider selection. The platforms we selected are Google, WebMD, Yelp, HealthGrades, Facebook, RateMDs, and Vitals. The analysis algorithm uses the compiled data of average score, recency of reviews, number of reviews, and the sentiment expressed in the written comments. It then assigns weight to each parameter based on the available research on how consumers use reviews in their doctor selection process. This report is designed to help identify the doctors with the best overall review score in an area and does not reflect the doctors' competence.
