I had a very good experience visiting Dr. Beckenstein‘s office yesterday. His staff is very nice and made me feel very comfortable, and he has a wonderful bedside manner. Presented my options and then pre-scheduled a teleconference in two weeks so we can talk it over which I really appreciated because it was a lot of information at once.

Thank you for your review! We appreciate your kind words about our staff and experience.
Dr. Beckenstein is the #1 surgeon in the world to me! He truly is one in a million, and I’m so blessed to have found him and his wonderful staff. Everyone associated with Dr. Beckenstein’s office has treated me with care, compassion, and respect from day one and I have never felt unheard or lost in the breast reconstruction process. After my traumatic experience at a different Alabama hospital where I had a failed double mastectomy w/ reconstruction that was performed by a different surgeon in December of 2024 I was left feeling lost and alone and not knowing what to do. I was mentally and emotionally wrecked and couldn’t stand to see myself in the mirror, I felt as though I had been butchered. It was definitely not a pleasant sight and several things were done unprofessionally and without care. I am blessed that I was led to Dr. B and his staff for a revision. Dr. Beckenstein genuinely cares for each of his patients, my results are amazing and I couldn’t ask for anything better. The surgery process was super easy and there was minimal pain. I’m forever grateful for Dr. B and I can never thank him enough for the way he restored my confidence and turned my traumatic experience into something positive.
