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.

Experienced Professional took the time to listen.
I had seen a couple of other doctors for my medical issue and was not satisfied. Dr. Beecum took the time to listen to my concerns and she was very professional. After a clinical diagnosis she sent me for testing appropriate for my condition. A short time after treatment with her, my condition improved dramatically. I highly recommend Dr. Beecum to all my friends and family. Call her office directly - 7two7-5four4-7seven6six - M. York.

Dr. Beecum and her staff are all caring and compassionate people. Everyone makes you feel comfortable and puts you at ease from the moment you open the front door until you leave. They are all great and I would highly recommend Dr. Beecum (which I have already sent family members to her) for anyone looking for a physician whether it be for a new Dr. or if you are looking to chance Dr.'s.
