This was hands down the worst doctor's experience of my life, 65 years in. I suffer from bilateral sciatica, bilateral central canal and foraminal stenosis, suffer from nerve impingement; every disc in my lumbar spine is bulging... the ones that are there, that is, as the surgeons want to replace 2 discs with rubber ones and fuse me at 3 levels. I also have a Schmorl's node. My primary has been after me for years to get an epidural and referred me to Beall. This guy comes in obviously in a hurry, has me raise & lower my legs and then asks me where it hurts most and I told him different places. He asked me no, where does it hurt most, and I told him again at different times, it's different places. I also have suffered from Deep Gluteal Syndrome, which I wish on nobody, so when that's active, it hurts more than other places. When my legs give out, that hurts more than other places. And the center of my back hurts all the dang time. I tried telling this guy these things, and all he wanted to do was interrupt me and no matter what I said, "No, no, no, where does it hurt the most?" I guess since I wouldn't answer his question the way he wanted me to, he wanted nothing to do with me, as he said, "Sorry, I cannot help you." He was focused on something other than helping me. I don't know whether it was time limitations or doing things his way or the highway or what, but it most definitely wasn't me. I have never felt more humiliated in my life, as he did this in front of his nurse and another doctor-looking guy. This kind of interaction makes me not want to go to a doctor ever again! Shame on him!

My husband was abandoned by Dr. Beall after I had a confrontation with his office staff. This has not helped my husband’s TBI at all! Dr. Beall was excellent at repairing four fractures in my husband’s back.

Good at what he does, but he's in his own little bubble and does not return calls from patients. If a person is an established patient, you'd think he would take enough interest in his/her health to at least return a phone call to try and find out what was on the patient's mind who made the call. When his treatment fails, he refers you out instead of showing a willingness to try again. He always talks to patients through his nurse rather than directly. This increases the time it take to get the information you need. You ask the nurse, she has to find him, then ask him, then call you back. In the meantime, you sit and hurt. Not recommended.

Dr. Beall's nurse does not seem to understand the fundamentals of how pain medication works and was condescending at best. Dr. Beall was impatient and made judgements without taking the time to ask for the facts. Jumped to conclusions. No thank you!

Conceded. Showed little sympathy. You would think a physician in his field would know the value of bedside manner. Non existant.

Excellent bedside manner, very knowledgeable. Takes a sincere interest in the whole person- general and specific health, family life, etc. Takes the time to do the job right. Highly recommended.
