I have been a patient of Dr. Benson's for a few years now, and have always found him to be very understanding and helpful. He is compassionate, and often draws pictures to help you understand what is happening in your body, or how the medication will work. Very kind, and very knowledgeable. I strongly recommend him.

My brother and I once had a heated argument about who has the best doctor. "My doctor does this..." "yeah? Well my doctor does that too and he does this..." This went on for about 15 minutes... until we figured out we were talking about the same doctor.
Dr.Benson always takes time to sit down and talk to me. I have never once felt rushed while under his care. He always listens to everything I say. He always makes sure I am comfortable and that I understand everything. He answers all the questions I have. There have been times when I went to him for 2 different things at the same time and he still took time with each issue I was having. I recommend him to all of my family and friends. I have never left his office confused or unsure about anything he has told me. He is by far the best doctor I have even been to and the people that I have suggested him to always say the same thing.
Dr. Benson and nurse Krista are absolutely wonderful! I have had many bad experiences with other doctors, but Dr. Benson more than made up for that. He was kind, caring, helpful and made me feel like I was important. He has a happy-go-lucky attitude that makes you feel good about being there. I was worried about some tests, but he told me not to and things would be ok...very reassuring! He gives awesome advice and makes things easy to understand. I honestly felt I was talking more to a friend than a doctor who just sees you as patient number 40 or 50...that can be very comforting. I am definitely recommending him to everyone that's looking.

Dr. Benson and his nurse Krista are a wonderfull team. They instantly immediately make you feel comfortable. My teenage daughter loves them. She saw them for an illness and I ended up switching my entire family to Dr. Benson's care. Never before has a doctor explained in detail her diagnoses and treatment to me. He even provided me with samples of the medication instead of a prescription. Very down to earth, very warm, excellent with kids teenagers,and adults. The nurse even called me later to check on my daughter. Very one on one with his patients. I've recommeded him to lot of my friends and coworkers. they said the same things after their visits

I have had a problem for many years, all the dr's have ignored symptoms. said anxiety attacks. Dr benson listened and found the problem it was my heart!
Very nice doctor. Seems like he really cares about his patients. Told me that he would take a call at any time if I had anything I needed to speak with him about.
