Patient Reviews
Sep 28, 2023
Dr. Beeser was booked out to November. His staff asked if I'd like to be placed on the waiting list. I accepted (I always do) and was called back within a few days and ended up with an appointment less than a week from my initial contact.At no time did I feel rushed while meeting with Dr. Besser. He discussed the x-rays with me and had a clear plan of action. He physically examined my knee and ran me through a few tests. Based on his examination and what the x-rays showed, we decided to go with a Cortisone injection and a follow up with their Joint PT group.Dr. Beeser took the time to layout how the injection would be given and carefully explained each step as he was proceeding. I was given a Cortisone injection in the knee with absolutely zero pain and was in and out of his office within 45 minutes.This guy knows exactly what he is doing, and his years of experience clearly showed.I would easily recommend Dr. Besser to anyone I know.
