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.

Doctor Beckhardt was very professional and took care of the wax in my ears for myself and 2 kids.

Dr. Beckhardt has helped my teenager twice for severe painful ear infections which closed her ear canal. He listened closely and patiently to details of what had been going on and diagnosed her based on both what was described and results of various tests. His thoroughness is much appreciated!

I really liked Dr. Beckhardt. He was really patient with my 5 year old that tends to get very nervous at doctor visits. He was very understanding and thorough. Waiting time is the negative part of the visit. First time there i waited 2hrs and the second time a bit over an hour. Staff was kind amd professional.

Dr. Beckhardt is one of the most dedicated doctors I have met. He and staff are very kind and efficient; they listened and spoke with me in a way that I could understand and feel safe. After my inicial medical examination, I called the doctor's office a few times with questions; Dr. Beckhardt quickly called me back each time to answer my questions and ease my concerns. I am very grateful for such an excellent service.

I have no doubt the Dr. is competent. I have seen him a few times. My problem is with spending my entire evening in the waiting room waiting to be seen. So, if you don't mind waiting hours to be seen by the Dr., by all means use this physician. I left my last appointment after I asked the receptionist how much longer it would be and she said there were 6 people ahead of me. I had a 5.50pm appointment and this was 6.30pm. This is the rule rather than the exception in this office.
