Dr. Beigi is the best physician I have on my team. He is caring, knowledgeable, and is an excellent diagnostician.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/28/2025
I was amazed at the amount of time that Dr. Beigi he took with me and truly probed to try to determine the source of the pain I've been experiencing. He was extremely thorough and identified a couple of possibilities, which we are following up on with two different approaches.

He is very thorough
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/27/2024
I felt that this probably was the one time that I felt I was heard and he explained tests ordered and why what it will tell him etc we discussed the initial plan and what comes next in detail. He explained everything clearly and I felt like he was invested in getting answers and the answers allowing him to treat me appropriately with long term success.

Dr. Beigi saved my life when I was extremely I'll. He said he would stay with my care and not drop me as a patient when other doctors threw their hands in the air and gave up because they didnt know what to do. Thank God for Dr. Beigi

Dr. Beigi always takes the time to listen to all of the things goi.g on. I have seen him for many years for multiple conditions. He always suggests multiple options and includes me in my treatment plan. He is always well informed on new treatments and ensures they will not conflict with my multiple other heath issues and medications

Dr Begi is an Exceptional Doctor
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 7/24/2023
Dr. Beigi is an exceptional doctor. He reviewed my past reports assessed my current condition, and proposed a course of action pending results of blood tests. He is a great communicator. We had a two way dialog and her was interested in what I had to say. I have only seen such a detailed assessment of my conditions and proposed plan of action just a few times in my life. The other two doctors were both Hillman physicians. I will definitely be a patient of the practice that Dr. Beigi is a member for a very long time. Job well done.

Dr. Beigi is the best doctor/diagnostician. I have ever had in my life. He is extremely knowledgeable, sharp, kind, caring and will not stop until he gets to the root of your problem. In some of my instances, through his tests for something, he often discovered problems in other areas and referred me to other specialists. In one case, it saved my life. He catches things other doctors miss because he listens to me. In 2021, he saved my life again from a rare illness that my rheumatologist didn't want to face the truth. Dr. Beigi started me on high doses of steroids that saved me. After I started to get better, after 5 days, even the rheumatologist had to admit doctor Beigi was correct in his diagnosis. Doctor Beigi is not only a brilliant doctor/diagnostician but my champion, hero and a shining gem in the medical community. He should be celebrated!!

Doctor took a lot of time with me I didn't feel rushed at all.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/18/2023
We came prepared with about 10 pages of hand written records of everything that has been going on for the past 6 years. Dr. Beigi went through it with us, answered each concern, and pointed us towards a resolution for the concerns. He is also the first doctor EVER to really address my mouth ulcers. They've been such a constant problem in my life and not even my dentist treats them.

I recommend him to everyone

The whole staff was great. They treated me like a friend and not a number. They displayed good bedside manners that isn't always displayed in today's world.
