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.

Great Bariatric Dr.
Dr. McBean has treated me twice. He performed a Gastric Bypass surgery on me in 2017. As of this day, I have managed to keep my weight off. He also performed a hernia repair in July of 2023. It was during my follow up visit that unrelated concerns that I expressed to him resulted in me discovering that i had Bile Duct cancer which was not only found in time, it was removed 100%. If Dr. McBean had not pursued answers even though they were unrelated to his services, my cancer would have been discovered at a late stage. Thank You Dr. McBeanDexter J. Hansford

Best Surgeon in the DMV
When looking for a doctor they’re certain characteristics that you’re looking for: knowledge, specialties, tenure, location, communication and positive reviews. Well Dr. McBean embodies all those characteristics. He’s very pleasant and makes you comfortable when addressing your medical issues. He’s thorough and fully transparent even with the tough decisions. He’ll explore other avenues to provide you with the best care that’s suited for you. With his boyish looks don’t get swayed he has over 20 years in the business. So if you’re looking for a surgeon that would provide you with the right/best medical care….You’re in good hands with Dr. McBean.

He is a phenomenal surgeon which includes his bedside manners, his knowledge the way he explains information and his sincerity. He cares about his patients. I trust him. No doubt one of the best! I wish i had done this sooner. Thanks Dr. McBean!

Im the oldest son Andre, my mom just got out of surgery, felt very grateful that she arrived back home, I've wouldn't known what To do if she went south... To her she is my everything, my mother,father,aunt,uncle, and even my brother. She always tells me "As a black man you have to work for your goals 20 times harder compared to other people," and I take that to notice but just never taken it seriously. We've moved alot just for my mom to give us a better life, from the time when I was born, I always see my mom fight to get us food on our plates, without depending on my biological father, there was one moment when she went out for a job and, my brother and I would go out to look for her, which the neighbor spotted us and called the cops, which im very grateful for for that. Now that I am 18 I get more understanding on how the system works in USA. All I want to do now is to make my mom proud and become someone that she can brag out. Thank you, she being home provides motivation for me.
