Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Wonderful doctor!
He is always through, actually sits and talks with you. He always has a great attitude and a plan for your diagnosis.

Wonderful Doctor
This was my first appointment with Dr. Beaty and he was really great. I did have to wait over 3 hours for my appointment so that was disappointing but I do not think that is the norm. Dr Beaty took time to really listen to me and discuss my situation. He has a wonderful manner and am glad to have become his patient.

I like Dr. Beaty and his nurse practitioner. However, the wait time is ridiculous. My appointment was at 1:10pm . I arrived a little be that time and it was way after 3:00pm before I was seen by his nurse practitioner. I came out waiting for bloodwork and it is 3:56 and I’m still waiting in hallway for my bloodwork.

Dr. Beatty is a very nice and professional man.
Dr. Beatty’s professionalism and concern for my health and welfare. His attitude towards health and recovery was very positive. His staff has improved, since my last visit. But his office, is the ONLY place that its is 2 and one half to 3 hours to get seen and out.

Slow
While I am pleased with my treatment, I am not happy about all the waiting. I was requested there by 12 and didn’t leave until after 3. Only 1 test done. At check in I was asked which pharmacy I am using this year. While waiting for the doc, after 2, they sent my prescriptions to two different pharmacies, but not the one I reported at check in that I am using. This building is difficult for me to get into. The giant glass doors are heavy. After being in this building for over a year there still isn’t a button for someone in a wheelchair to easily enter. Not everyone has someone to help with this. Walking TO the building is challenging enough since the parking is across the street. Not a happy camper here.
