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 doctor
I was referred to her as my endocrinologist from my obgyn due to PCOS. She was very informative, didn’t rush, answered every question I’ve had. If anyone needs an endocrinologist see Dr. Becnel

The Best in Baton Rouge
Dr. Becnel has been my primary care physician for almost 9 years. I have never had a PCP who cares about her patients like she does. Easy to communicate with, doesn’t make you feel rushed, is compassionate and respectful. She’s so good it takes months to get an appointment, but if it’s urgent, she finds a way to work you into the clinic or follows you closely through her NP.

A Doctor that definitely provides excellent care
I’ve been seeing Dr Becnel for over two years, and have come to find she provides excellent care to her clients here within the Baton Rouge area. She is thorough with the different considerations a person might have involving the needs of their care. She also frequently asks the relevant questions pertaining to the administration of that person’s care. She takes the time to get to know her clients and does very well all around with regards to providing the different types of primary care that might involve the clients needs. She is a Doctor that excels in her provision of healthcare and is definitely recommended.

Dr Becnel is very personable and made me feel very comfortable. She took time to listen and is very down to earth. She’s very knowledgable and appears to use a common sense approach to address treatments. I hope she’s my Dr forever.

I really like my doctor. She listen, very people patient oriented, pleasant, polite & concern about my well being. I can go on & on about her greatness, but most of all she is a doctor who care. This something you can’t find in a lot of the young doctors today. Most of all she is knowledgeable to old & modern medicine. What else can I say except thank you for having her on your team to care for my health!

Thoughts on Dr. Michelle Becnel
I recently moved here from out of state. My previous PCP doc was very caring, and never rushed me through an appointment. I was so hesitant to get a new PCP because I was sure I wold be disappointed. Once I saw Dr. Becnel, I knew I was with the right doc. She is kind, caring, and professional. She did not rush me through my appointment; rather she spent time asking pertinent questions making sure I had appointments to specialists before I left. Would definitely recommend Dr. Michelle Becnel.

She is amazing. She is devoted to her patients and truly wants to help. I have struggled in the past finding great doctors that I trust. She gained my trust instantly and she immediately started trying to figure out what she could do to make my quality of life better.

Dr. Becnel is absolutely wonderful. She listens well and cares about what you are saying. She addresses all issues and sets up things like X- rays,scans, etc. It’s obvious that she’s extremely smart and knows what she’s doing, but she never talks down to you or makes you feel inferior. And to top it off…she has a beautiful smile and uses it often. I highly recommend Dr. Becnel! ??

Finally found my doctor. I, actually, called the Associate Director of Primary Care to tell him, personally, how good my experience with Dr. Becnel had been. I recommend her to everyone I know.
