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.

Dr. Beneke offers LINX ®, a new laparoscopic procedure to treat GERD. This procedure involves a string of metal beads that are drawn together by a magnet. When this string is placed around the lower esophagus, the magnet pulls the beads together and closes off the esophagus from the stomach.

GERD - Anti Reflux – Feb 09, 2021
×Post a ResponseAre you Dr. Beneke?
Dr. Beneke was the surgeon who preformed my total thyroidectomy when I was diagnosed with stage two cancer. Initially, he completely blew me off. Stating he thought it was ridiculous, that I was being hormonal, that I didn't need surgery at all. Well, lo and behold, the surgery took more than twice as long as he had previously boasted (because he was oh so skilled) because not only was the cancer actually there, but it was spreading like mad all in and around the thyroid bed, infecting dozens of lymph nodes. 24 hours after my discharge from the hospital, I was back in the ER, almost going into cardiac arrest due to major hypocalcemia. Why? Because our master surgeon here botched my surgery and accidentally removed 3 of my 4 parathyroid glands, badly mangling the 4th. I was in the ICU for a week. Then, a week later, he told me on Christmas Eve that the radioactive iodine treatment I "definitely wouldn't need" was now necessary. Because my cancer was so bad. Never did he apologize.

Amazing surgeon and staff. I live in Chicago and am here for 1 month, I needed hernia surgery and decided to have it here in Sacramento. His office worked very hard to get me in on short notice. I have never dealt with such a great doctor, nurses, and office staff. Thank you for everything.
