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.

I want to see him today to talk to him about surgery and a total knee replacement. I want with my sister and sister in law and we had an lot of questions and he answer them and he was honest with me about it the total knee replacement and after the knee replacement what sports I can do and can’t do. So it was hopefully for me because me being a special Olympic athlete and young a patient that need one done . He was very hopefully and honest with me. I like that about him he takes time to explain everything to us.

Two new joints in two months
Second total joint replacement by Dr. Beal in two months (hip then knee). He did a great job on my hip allowing me the ability to have a much needed knee replacement two months later without difficulty. He is patient and thoroughly explains the surgical and follow-up process. He even sent me to a physical therapist before hip surgery to learn how to use a walker, cane, and get into and out of bed. The physical therapist I saw had never had a patient come in before their hip replacement surgery. She thought it was a great idea and stated she was going to suggest it to the surgeons that are her regular referral sources. I would highly recommend Dr. Beal. His demeanor will put you at ease.

A rare find
I was extremely nervous going in to see Dr Beal…I had been to many other physicians who made it seem as if each visit was a waste of my time and left me discouraged. As soon as walked into Dr Beal’s office, I felt welcomed, at ease and valued. The staff was wonderful and took the time to make me feel comfortable. Dr Beal was warm, funny and genuinely interested in how I felt, attending to all the questions I had with complete honesty. His experience is apparent and his passion for orthopedics is evident. I am grateful for this experience and would recommend him and his staff to anyone!

Dr. Beal At Centennial
I injured my leg in a fall in September of 2021 and have had 6 surgeries since. Each surgery was for a different issue that was directly caused from the fall. I feel blessed that I did not lose my leg, but also have had quite the journey trying to regain full use of it. After the 5th surgery I could walk some with a cane but my leg was turned out/foot facing away from body. I couldn't put much weight on it because of pain below the knee. Dr. Beal was the 6th surgeon. He replaced my knee and straightened my leg! That was such a blessing, because we weren't sure if it could be fixed. Dr. Beal was up front with all the information he gave me. I think he's the best and would recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thank You Dr. Beal!

Dr Beal is wonderful. Very thorough, listens to what you say and answers all questions. He is very personable and has a sense of humor. We fell in love with him and Becca. We were blessed he was the doctor on call the day I broke my hip. Can't say enough good things about him and appreciate him so much. The Reeds

Wonderful doctor!
I have to replace both of my knees and just finished the first, Dr. Beal and his staff (especially Becca) made my surgery easy. Checkups we’re in place before I left the building. This is the second surgery that Hughston Clinic has been responsible for and it’s been great each time.

Dr. Beal is undoubtedly skilled at what he does. However, nothing makes up for the fact that he is arrogant, doesn't interact, refuses to listen to anything negative about his staff (and there ARE negative things to say), and fails to explain anything. No thanks, never again. One hip replacement was one too many with this guy.

I first saw Dr. Beal after being hospitalised with pain but no idea of the ailment. Meeting him, he was very calm and attentive which offered reassurance. After listening to the pain inexperienced and its location, he performed an exam and recommended a CT scan. Thanks to his assessment, it was discovered I had/have a labral tear. Although this isn’t Dr. Beal’s area of treatment, I appreciate that through his assessment, I was able to receive a diagnosis.

I had surgery 11 days ago. I am using a cane and doing my regular routine, excluding driving.. The pain is minimal. My bandage was taking off yesterday, and my PT commented on how amazing the stitching is. One negative...the swelling is ridiculous (can't wear a shoe) and I don't have an appetite. Regardless, I will be going back to Dr. Beal for my left knee.

My Full knee replacement was caused by a car accident this wasn’t your regular knee replacement . Included with surgery was building structure of the tibia plateau. Dr. Beal’s confidence in his skills and knowledge of what he would need to do to repair my knee I knew he was the one that I wanted to do my knee . 10 days after surgery I walked 2 miles I would say it’s A miracle but I know it was the doctors skills.
