Where do I even start with this office, the staff and the surgeon. My first point of contact was with Janet. From the first interaction I felt seen and heard. She listened to my perspective and heard me out. I had a million questions and she took the time to answer each one. One by one. She didn’t rush me or make me feel less than for asking so many questions. I was having a prophylactic bilateral mastectomy and was terrified. I met Dr Beckenstein and he immediately allowed me the space to share my fears about breast cancer due to my family history. He listened to my concerns and addressed each one. He spent time in the room with me which most doctors don’t. He spent time explaining what surgery would be like; what to expect before during and after. He spent time introducing me to the nurse I would be working close with. He spent time being a human and not just a doctor. His nurse Kaitlyn went through step by step what I needed to know before my surgery. The office worked with my insurance and kept me in the loop during the process. They celebrated with me when my insurance approved my surgery. They celebrated with me when we scheduled the surgery. And they celebrated with me after my surgery during my first second and third post op appointments. Dr Beckenstein is an artist and my scars are beautiful and he made sure I was happy with my results. I cannot stress enough that I met with three surgeons and because of the front office staff and Dr. Beckenstein’s bedside manner I chose him.

Several close friends of mine used Dr B for breast reduction surgery and I am so glad I did too. He readily works with your insurance carrier and is completely and equally concerned with both the aesthetics and life quality reduction surgery can bring someone. He is a lovely man and talented surgeon and his staff makes a weird, uncomfortable experience easy and do-able. I’m thrilled with my surgical outcome, it was covered by insurance with no problems or surprises, my care at St Vincent’s was fantastic, and my recovery was so easy and fast. I have at least five friends planning on using Dr B for their own reduction surgery. ❤️❤️❤️
