SHC Patient, Sep 2017
Dr Basham was very friendly and answered my questions. Also provided new info which enlightened me on my future needs.
SHC Patient, Aug 2017
During my IUD consultation, I felt like the provider was very pushy about a certain brand (Mirena) over another. It made me uncomfortable since I was leaning towards the non-hormone option.
SHC Patient, Aug 2017
Dr. Bashalm seemed very thorough in her approach to my health issues.
SHC Patient, Jul 2017
Doctor was amazing! Was referred to this doctor/practice after a horrible experience with another Doctor in the area. Came here to get a second opinion and will not be going anywhere else.

First time I visited Dr. Basham in place of Dr. Silverman. She was VERY pleasant and would very likely be the doctor I go to if doctor Silverman is not available in the future.
SHC Patient, Jun 2017
I was extremely nervous about this procedure but Dr. Bashum was able to answer all of my questions and reassure me that everything would go okay. As she was performing the procedure, she walked me through step by step what she was doing. After insertion of my IUD, Dr. Bashum took appropriate measures to make me comfortable because she noticed a drop in my blood pressure which turned my face pale. I was impressed with how many times she personally came back into the room to check on me to make sure i was okay
SHC Patient, May 2017
I wish I had time to talk about how to use the birth control pills I have no idea how to use them correctly- thankfully my friend explained
SHC Patient, May 2017
I was very impressed by Dr. Basham's new patient orientation and welcome process. She took the time prior to my exam to sit in her office and get to know a bit about my history and any important health concerns that I might have. I have never had this experience before and it is a very nice touch to have an opportunity to get to know the doctor a bit prior to an exam when you are a new patient. More physician's should adopt this practice.
SHC Patient, May 2017
I had a wonderful experience with Dr. Basham. She sat with me and walked me through all of my questions and gave me very clear answers regarding care that was completely foreign to me. I cannot emphasize enough how kind, understanding, informative, and patient she was with me. She answered my questions in detail that I could understand very well, and made sure I was aware of what was happening during a small procedure at each step, and made sure that I was comfortable with everything. She made me feel like a person rather than just a patient, and I cannot tell you how much that meant to me.
SHC Patient, May 2017
everything was great
SHC Patient, May 2017
Dr Basham was great. She actually spent some time getting to know me and my concerns. I couldn't be more impressed and have already referred her to a friend

SHC Patient, Mar 2017
very nice and made me feel like I was talking to a real person very relaxed and polite and calming and concerned
SHC Patient, Mar 2017

SHC Patient, Mar 2017
LOVE Dr Basham!
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
I was very impressed with Dr. Basham. She explained the procedure fully and was concerned with any discomfort I had.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
My previous 2 doctors have left this practice so this visit was with a new one. I'm not exactly thrilled that my prior doctors left and each time I've had to establish a new relationship but so far it's been positive.
SHC Patient, Mar 2017
she is amazing
SHC Patient, Feb 2017
Helped explain birth control options well.
SHC Patient, Jan 2017
I was very impressed with Dr. Basham and grateful to have found a brilliant new doctor in a new city after moving unexpectedly, would highly recommend.
SHC Patient, Dec 2016
Dr. Basham is awesome. When she was unavailable I saw Dr. Ludwig and was equally impressed.
SHC Patient, Nov 2016
I was very impressed that I was taken to the doctor's office to discuss why I was there, as well as my medical history, before changing into a gown. The doctor spent 30-45 minutes with me before we moved into the exam room for the exam. That shows me that she cares about her patients and that she's willing to take the time to listen to us. This was a first visit, so I don't expect that to happen for every visit, but I do expect her to be a good listener since she was for this visit.
SHC Patient, Oct 2016
She had poor bedside manners and didn't empathize w/ my feelings.
SHC Patient, Sep 2016
Dr. Basham was personal...explained everything thoroughly and answered all my questions. I feel fortunate to have her as my doctor.
SHC Patient, Sep 2016
She is one of the best doctors I've ever had!!

SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Dr. Basham does a great job of striking a balance between offering advice and support and allowing me to direct my own care. She gives me options and explanations, is happy to make recommendations, and ultimately leaves me feeling empowered to make the right choice for myself. I never feel pressured, judged, or rushed through a conversation.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Dr. Basham is the best dr I've ever had, in any specialty. I'm very lucky to have found her.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Very happy with my doctor.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
The doctor left my annual exam notes on the monitor. In the notes it mentioned she discussed with me a vitamin regimen which was never discussed. On a separate visit, I asked to discuss an alternative treatment to BV which to this day, no one has called me back to discuss.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
Dr. Basham is great I truly have my trust in her skills and knowledge. I would recommend her to all my friends and family.
SHC Patient, Dec 2015
I am so lucky to have found Dr Bhashya, after moving to San Jose- Willow Glen from Fremont.
