I had an amazing experience at Dr. Beckenstein's office. I had no wait time. The staff is kind, knowledgeable, and professional. I have no doubt they will be my advocates when dealing with my insurance company. Dr. Beckenstein was caring and genuinely interested in me, my experiences, and what I wanted. I am excited about what he will be able to do to help me.

We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience at our office, Dottie. Thank you for your kind words and for choosing Dr. Beckenstein for your care. We look forward to seeing you soon!

I had a mastopexy without augmentation with Dr Beckenstein. Throughout the time of my initial consultation to my four week postop visit, I have been extremely pleased with all of my interactions with Dr. Beckenstein and his staff. At no time was I ever uncomfortable. I explained to Dr. B how I would want my breasts to look. In the exam room, he showed me what he thought he would be able to accomplish and gave me realistic expectations. I am four weeks postop I feel like he gave me exactly what I was expecting -- and it should only get better! The office is extremely organized and everyone is very knowledgeable. At the end of my consultation, I was able to schedule not only the surgery but all of my follow up visits. The recovery beverage that Dr. B sells in his office taste great and I think it really made a difference in my recovery! If the need ever arises, I will definitely come back to this office for future procedures.

We appreciate your positive feedback, Shelia. Thank you for choosing Michael S. Beckenstein, MD for your healthcare needs.

I saw Dr Beckenstein for a breast reduction and abdominoplasty after losing about 70lbs. I was excited to have lost the weight but not at all happy with my appearance. He made me feel very comfortable. His staff were very sweet and easy to get in touch with, answering any questions I had. The surgery experience was great with excellent care over night. It was most definitely worth the first few weeks of pain in the end. A year later I don’t even recognize the person I see in the before pictures and will forever be grateful for his skilled surgical hands and my new body! Dr Beckenstein is the best!

We are thrilled to hear about your positive experience, Sharon. Thank you for choosing Dr. Beckenstein for your surgery.!!

I love Dr. B and his staff! My first visit was for an explant consult and they made me feel very at ease! Dr. B was not pushy one way or another for the procedure I want done and did not try to up-sale me on anything! He just told me it was all about me and what I wanted!! Loved him!!! Scheduled surgery for March 5th and he and his staff have been phenomenal! I am extremely please with my results!
