It was an ideal that I had to wait three months to see your provider. But I get it because I'm also in the medical field. It was one of my best doctor experiences I've ever had.

Providence Patient
Dr Beckerman was extremely caring and knowledgeable. He was so warm and took the time to answer questions and explain things.
Providence Patient
Dr Beckerman seemed like he had a preconceived notion of my health before I sat in his chair. He placated all my concerns by saying "that happens in 100% of healthy people, in my experience," or "everyone I've seen with that condition grows out of it." Instead of actually hearing my concerns and understanding my current health situation. As a patient, hearing a doctor's anecdotal experience without any further explanation felt like a waste of my time.
Providence Patient
Dr. Beckerman is wonderful. I have referred a number of friends to him. His staff has been wonderful too. My only issue is that when I went to schedule my annual exam, his only availability was 4 months later. I wish I knew when and how to schedule the appointment so that it occurs every year in the same month. Thank you.

I have been a patient of Providence Heart Clinic, and have been seeing Dr Beckerman for over 20 years now. Dr Beckerman (and his team) literally set the benchmark for providers. He is the most caring, understanding, knowledgeable doctor that I have ever seen. And his staff are right there with him. I have had a few health scares over the years. They have been the best through those times, and the times of routine visits as well. They are accommodating and never make you feel like you are a burden. Providence is so blessed to have him and his staff.
