Outside of work Dr. Basehore enjoys a wide variety of outdoor recreational activities including snowboarding, hiking, fly fishing, and golfing. He is passionate about enjoying life and dermatology allows him to provide care to his patients so they can enjoy their life in the same manner.
“Because I have suffered with eczema my entire life I truly understand the physical and emotional impact that dermatologic problems can have on patients. As an adolescent, my eczema prevented me from doing things I really enjoyed like competitive swimming because being in the pool caused me physical discomfort and I was embarrassed about my skin. I am passionate about the care I provide to patients because they deserve to be able to enjoy their own lives to the fullest without having to worry about their skin.”
