Dr. Beaver and his team are consistently professional, genuinely concerned about my issues and always provide a synopsis of my condition and the best resolution. I can honestly say, he and his team always exceed my expectations!
11/11/20
This was for the nurse practitioner who spent the most time with me.
11/09/20
It is always pleasant to discuss my condition with Dr. Beaver.
10/28/20
I don't feel like I got enough explanation, just quickly scheduled for surgery. I then sought a second opinion and had a long consultation with the physician, who took new x-rays rather than relying on my week old ones and described not only the course of treatment but the recovery. These guys were nice but I felt commoditized.
10/28/20
I didn't feel like the answers for how to treat my problem at home were that definitive. I had trouble hearing the doctor clearly through his mask during the exam and felt he was a little impatient with that.

Would have preferred the Dr. to tell me which option he thought best for me, instead of giving me three choices and leaving it up to me to choose.
07/08/20
I came in with what I already knew was [...] [...] issues - not bone. I was looking for ways to address that pain - such as physical therapy or orthotics. What I was told was that the only way to find out about that would be to get an MRI. Intervention offered was injections into a joint that showed [...] on x-ray, but which was not causing pain. I did get a prescription for a new [...], but that is only because I requested it. My experience with Dr. Beaver was that he was nice enough, but very much fit into the category of "when you only have a hammer, everything looks like a nail." I was needing someone with more tools.

Completely pleased, this was my first time at your clinic and with Dr. Beaver.
05/07/20
I had to pull all the answers out of his nose. He volunteered as little information about the surgery as possible. I did not learn much more than what I learned on the internet about the surgery. He did not explain if and why this procedure would address my condition and why it is the right surgery procedure for me. I think he only knows 1 or 2 procedures and has the "one shoe fits all" approach. I am educated and have knowledge. He treated me like a [...]
