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.

My experience with Dr. Beitsch and his staff can be summed up on one word. EXCELLENT. Caring and professional. Highly recommend this practice. I am being treated for melanoma. Terri has always returned my calls in a timely manner.

Dr. Beitsch has been nothing short of amazing. He performed my melanoma surgery & worked with me on payment since I was uninsured at the time. My annual skin checks are thorough but quick & I never have issues getting an appt. Highly recommend.

My daughter and I have been patients of Dr. Beitsch for many years. Today’s visit was to discuss the best course of treatment for my new breast cancer with the least amount of risk and the best tolerable route for curative success. I am a patient with severe COPD as well as a new lung cancer that has cropped up at the same time as the breast cancer. Dr. Beitsch is direct in answering questions and concerns and I can rely on him and Terry, his nurse/assistant to always suggest what is in my best interest and to put my mind and my family’s at ease. He will be doing my upcoming breast surgery. I have an extensive cancer history and I would not entrust my care to anyone else without consultation with him.

I have had three surgeries from Dr. Beitsch and they have all been very successful. His nurse is the best. Such a great group of professionals!

Stopped my inflamatory breast cancer and saw me when no one else would! He’s short and quick to the point but his kind understanding staff more than makes up for his need to hurry to help as many people as he can as quickly as possible!!!

Dr. Beitsch took time to see me in between surgeries at 2 different hospitals even when office was closed to patients at a very low point in my life. He was very kind, understanding, and knowledgeable and put my mind at ease. I didn't have an appointment originally but he understood my situation and insisted on seeing me. He was highly recommended by my family and I would certainly do the same for anyone else. not only Dr. Beitsch but his office staff as well especially Terry the office manager.

PLEASE READ THIS REVIEW This man butchered me during my surgery and wouldn't give me the time of day afterwards. Surgery was rushed, didn't speak to my family in person afterwards like promised, Site where skin was taken for graft was sloppily smushed back together. Spot where melanoma was removed and skin added was stapled and became infected. Graft almost failed. It was VERY difficult to get an appointment with him (as opposed to his nurse) to look at the problems he created. DO NOT USE HIM

My mother died under his care.. told us and wrote it down he got all cancer. He and his associates, Dr. Walton, could never get their stories straight. He said my mother is cancer free, only to discover she had bladder cancer. She was over radiated, even though his words, "she is wired indestructible as far as cancer goes. If. No cancer, why 3 more brutal surgeries.
