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.

This Man saved my life ! he is a treasure & someone that was in trenches & is seamless with his job performance. pure excellence.

Dr. Beekley is far and away one of the best Doctors I've ever dealt with. Had a surgery done by him and the process was incredible. Best recovery I've ever had and the results are beyond expectations. His level of service is honorable and not only is he great at what he does, he makes you feel like you're talking to a close friend every visit. Would HIGHLY recommend. Invaluable experience and incredible results. I can't possibly express how much I appreciate and respect him!

Dr. Beekley is the kindest Doctor I ever dealt with. Very caring & considerate of my feelings and my progress. He explained everything before surgery, no surprises. Very attentive and listened to everything I had to say. At the time of surgery, I had no questions or surprises and everything went very smooth.

Dr Beekley MD, is an excellent surgeon. I would highly recommend Dr Beekley to anyone seeking surgery. I was in poor health in need of bariatric surgery. Due to gastroparesis my Gastroenterologist had recommended that I have this surgery, so that it could aid my digestion. I am spinal cord injuried, unable to do exercises, with a bleeding disorder. My hematologist was not to excited for this type of surgery. I picked Dr Beekley, because of his experience in bariatrics, and truma surgery.

Dr Beekley is an extraordinary surgeon. He performed a sleeve gastrectomy on me in August 2014, and removed a scrotal mass in September of this year. When the pathology report showed that the mass included a liposarcoma - he acted quickly to get me in to see a urological oncologist for follow up surgery. On the morning of that surgery he stopped by pre-op to tell me he wouldn’t be there - after a stressful night of trauma surgery involving two teenage shooting victims! Always responds to emails.

Dr. Beekley performed my Gastric Bypass 4/28/2015 and he removed 2 Lipomas this year (2016). He explains everything in laymen terms before the procedure, answers all questions. His bedside manner is very professional & his entire staff is AWESOME. Some doctors forget there patients name, not him he is the BEST hands down. I am pleased with the procedures performed by him and I've proudly told others of his work etc.
