First Dr. Beazer is a phenomenal surgeon. He did my surgery it was a success. He was awesome and the majority of his staff is awesome but all it takes is a couple bad Apples to ruin the bunch unfortunately that’s what’s happened in my case. starting with a very terrible encounter I had with one...

Review for Dr. Beiser
He was quick to see my child and diagnose! He has helped with different orthopedic issues, not just a fracture. He explained everything to my child on a level they understood, not to just me, on an adult level. He’s conservative but realistic!
