I cannot even express how thankful I am for Dr. Beg. He is not only the most professional doctor that I have met, he is truly the most kind and caring I believe I will ever meet. It couldn't be more clear that Dr. Beg loves his job and cares for his patients. I had two surgeries this year with Dr. Beg, a bilateral lumpectomy and two months later, a bilateral mastectomy. I felt safe and well taken care of under his care. In fact from the radiologist at the hospital to the nurse that pre- registered me for surgery, the hematologist that I follow with, everyone had the same reaction when they saw Dr. Beg was the surgeon caring for me. The radiologist said I had the nicest and best surgeon around, the pre-surgical nurse said she just had surgery with Dr. Beg herself and went with who everyone in the hospital OR recommended, several specialists that I have seen all smile "Manny is your doctor, he's the best". Truly an all around a great person. He is a gift to those at their most vulnerable times. His visit to my hospital bed after surgery both days was comforting and made me feel safe and well taken care of. Thank you Dr. Beg
