UofU Patient August 29, 2016
I've mentioned Dr. Beals names to 'everyone' and everyone I've spoken with that has been a patient, including myself, has been over-the-top exceptionally pleased with the care given and quality of life received. I am been very happy with the care I received. -haha except maybe those missed stitches/that was cause for concern
UofU Patient August 27, 2016Dr Beals is the the most understanding, caring physician I have ever encountered! His time spent with me was invaluable.
UofU Patient August 22, 2016I like Dr. Beals. I think he has an excellent bedside manner but the wait times at his appointments are excessive. I waited over two hours for a follow up appointment.
UofU Patient August 21, 2016Dr.. Beals and the resident that was with him and saw me first, were both so excellent. They were friendly, kind, knowledgeable and both have excellent bed side manner. I would highly recommend either one to a friend or family member.
UofU Patient August 16, 2016Dr. Beals was fabulous.
UofU Patient August 15, 2016five stars enough said!

UofU Patient June 21, 2016Dr Beals is the best.
UofU Patient June 18, 2016I would have liked to have had better explanations of wound care after the stitches were removed. When I called several times, I got different suggestions about what to do about the oozing from the wound site. Some written suggestions would have been helpful.
UofU Patient May 30, 2016Dr. Beals is incredible!!!
UofU Patient May 29, 2016Dr. Beals is one of the best doctors I have ever been to. very friendly, very knowledgable and confident in what was needed to fix my ankle.
UofU Patient May 29, 2016excellent all over..
UofU Patient May 29, 2016One of the reasons I see Dr. Beals is because of the obvious care and concern for me as an individual and understanding my particular issue as opposed to the general nature of the issue. The thoroughness of from the x-rays to physical exam of the ankle certainly makes me more confident in the information given me concerning my particular issue.
UofU Patient April 26, 2016I can't remember the last time a doctor took the time to ask me about myself, before asking me the purpose of my visit. Dr Beals spent an hour with me discussing issues about the reasons for my visit and actions necessary to resolve my problems.
UofU Patient April 25, 2016good
UofU Patient April 19, 2016Dr. Beals is incredible. He has a very good bedside manner. He spent a lot of time with me and made sure that we had covered everything pertaining to why I was there to see him before concluding our visit.
UofU Patient April 10, 2016Dr Beals is the best
UofU Patient April 10, 2016I forgot to ask a couple of questions.
UofU Patient April 05, 2016It was entirely chaotic at the clinic that day. It seemed as if everyone was new in their positions - and it took a long time to get everything coordinated and questions answered adequately.
UofU Patient April 05, 2016I would fly around the world to be treated by professional and kind Dr. Timothy Beals.
UofU Patient April 03, 2016Dr. Beals was informative, caring, and had a good sense of humor.
UofU Patient March 28, 2016i am very happy with DR BEALS.and team
UofU Patient February 29, 2016We have already told many of our friends about the exceptional competence and friendliness of Dr.Beals. We were very impressed with him on all levels.
UofU Patient February 08, 2016Dr. Beals is not your typical orthopedic surgeon. He talked with me 1:1 for quite some time and I appreciate that!
UofU Patient February 08, 2016Dr. Beals is amazing. I feel confident in his care!! He took time with me and answered all my questions.
UofU Patient February 07, 2016Very good experience with this provider
UofU Patient February 02, 2016Once I got the appointment and actually got in to see Dr. Beals, this was the most successful and helpful Dr. appointment I have had in the last 20 years. Dr. Beals took time to understand my problem, he gave understandable explanations and gave suggestions and opinions but didn't force his ideas. I felt like he really understood my situation and gave good expert advise. I would highly recommend him!!
UofU Patient February 01, 20165 stars for Dr Beals
UofU Patient February 01, 2016I got my questions answered and have a plan for the future.
UofU Patient January 18, 2016I've recommended Dr. Beals several times to others. He's the best. I appreciate the time he spends with me so when I have to wait, I know it's because he's giving the same care to someone else. That's a good thing & I'd never complain about the wait time. It's all worth it knowing Dr. Beals is the BEST! He cares and knows his medical field!.
UofU Patient January 12, 2016Dr. Beal was excellent. He spent a long time assessing my problem and explaining it to me.
UofU Patient January 06, 2016Dr. Beals is amazing and it is always worth wait to see him. He remembered me from 10 years ago and gave me s sense of confidence that fixing my ankle isn't going to be horrendous.
UofU Patient January 06, 2016Doctor Beals was exceptional with his descriptions of the problems in my ankle. He also spent a lot of time explaining the problems and options.
UofU Patient December 15, 2015Dr. Beals is one of the best physicians I have ever consulted. He was able to diagnose my condition on my first visit almost 10 years ago. It changed my understanding of a life-long problem, and that knowledge was empowering. As my condition has changed with aging, his recommendations and prescriptions give me confidence and assurance.
UofU Patient December 12, 2015All those I came in contact with were extremely nice.
UofU Patient December 11, 2015Dr. Beals is amazing!!!
UofU Patient December 06, 2015Dr. Beals was personable and spent time listening and understanding exactly what was going on. Addressed ALL my concerns. Quite thorough in his recommendations, even demonstrated several things I could do before meeting with PT.
UofU Patient December 06, 2015Everyone was friendly, professional, patient oriented. A real positive experience.
UofU Patient November 17, 2015Doctor Beals is a great provider, he takes the time to listen to everything you have to say about your condition before responding. He then gives you a total explanation not just a brief of this is what to do next, but gives the why.
UofU Patient October 23, 2015I was very pleased with everyone that I worked with during my appointment at the Orthopedic Center.
UofU Patient October 18, 2015Doctor Beals is wonderful! First doctor to give me answers!
UofU Patient October 16, 2015I would recommend Dr. Beals to anyone he is very good in knowing about anything you ask him.
UofU Patient October 12, 2015I wish more doctors followed Dr. Beals excellent example.
UofU Patient October 12, 2015Dr. Beals, as always, was interested and informative about my issues.
UofU Patient October 05, 2015They took the time and made a real difference!
UofU Patient October 02, 2015Dr.Beals makes himself available for open communication constantly. I keep in touch with him through phone calls ,text messages, & scheduled appointments. Even though I live in St. George, Utah he will respond to my inquiries, messages, & photographs of my progress and questions.He has madreturned my calls at all hours of night & from any part of the country.
UofU Patient October 02, 2015I have really come to love and appreciate Dr. Beals. This is my second surgery with him, and now that he has "fixed" both feet, I'm almost sad that I likely will not have reason to see him again! He has been awesome in every way!
UofU Patient September 22, 2015cannot say enough about how much I trust and appreciate Dr. Bills
UofU Patient September 21, 2015Dr. Beals is the only physician I feel can work with my problem right now.
UofU Patient September 14, 2015Dr. Beals was excellent. Great "bedside manner" and concerned about your welfare.
UofU Patient September 12, 2015Dr. Beals is a knowledgeable, caring physician who I have complete confidence in.
UofU Patient September 02, 2015Dr. Beals is personable and through in his explanations of what to expect. he's also encouraging.
UofU Patient August 28, 2015I have recommended Dr. Beal's and the Ortho Center to many people.
UofU Patient August 24, 2015So pleased to have a provider actually talk to me about my problem and just not say "sorry can't help you" after just looking at the x-rays. Thank You
UofU Patient August 23, 2015impressed with Dr. Beals franknesss frankness and willingness to listen
UofU Patient August 04, 2015I have a difficult problem and they really don't know what to do with me to improve it. Its not their fault I just want some other options beside pain medication.
UofU Patient August 03, 2015First visit with Dr. Beals--excellent!
UofU Patient July 31, 2015Dr. Beals is a gem and the best in his field
UofU Patient July 28, 2015Even though I had to wait for an extended time for Dr. Beals, I felt that he spent the necessary time with me -- and even had time for some personal visiting and joking. I know why he is often behind: he spends time with his patients and makes us feel important.
UofU Patient July 22, 2015It was like I was describing my problem to someone who had the exact same problem, which was wonderful. To feel like you can accurately express your precise discomfort, which is really more about them understanding what I am saying and asking the right questions back, it really makes you feel like you are in good hands,
UofU Patient July 10, 2015Dr Beals is great. And, he has a great bed side manner. But, he runs so very late because of this. Then, when I was through my 6 weeks of no weight baring I was surprised that he didn't anticipate my reconditioning more than just saying, You can do whatever you want. That in fact, was not true as for the first 2 weeks of walking I had to figure out how much I could do and couldn't do and have not been able to exercise fully yet. So, I would have liked a little bit more in depth discussion about my reconditioning since physical therapy is not indicated. I do feel really good about him as a person and about his professional skill and knowledge. I would recommend him to anyone. But, I wish if he is going to run late that he would go in depth in the post surgical visit.
UofU Patient July 04, 2015Dr Beals showed me respect and understanding. He explained clearly about the healing of my ankle; when to bear weight, drive, do ballet again. I enjoyed his willingness to share, which was very informative and left me feeling relieved. I like Dr. Beals a lot.
UofU Patient June 30, 2015best care ever
UofU Patient June 24, 2015Dr. Beals genuinely listens. I appreciate his reassuring explanations, not only as to what is going on, but what to expect.
UofU Patient June 05, 2015What I do appreciate and what sets Dr. Beals apart from other doctors is not only the positive energy but also the genuine concern for an individual's problem.
UofU Patient May 29, 2015Dr Beals always makes you feel like you are his most important patient
UofU Patient May 25, 2015As already stated - Dr Beals's bedside manner was great. I can see why he is in such high demand. I appreciate the time he took to discuss my foot problem and the fact that alternative therapies may be of benefit for my neuropathy. As a true sign of a REALLY good surgeon - he stated that any type of invasive procedure would NOT be recommended and should be avoided at all costs.
UofU Patient May 19, 2015I have told many about the Doc. & your facility.
UofU Patient May 19, 2015I've already recommended Dr. Beals to others. Just wish it didn't take so long to get in. Specially beings I'm a returning patient.
UofU Patient May 11, 2015Dr. Beals is beyond exceptional. "Very good" doesn't even begin to described him. I wish every doctor could take lessons from him. I think in addition to his medical and professional expertise it (genuine caring) is one of his "gifts".
UofU Patient May 10, 2015Long wait BUT it was worth it Dr. is very good.
UofU Patient May 05, 2015Dr. Beals is the BEST!!!!
UofU Patient May 04, 2015Dr. Beals, was great! He seemed genuinely concerned and equally passionate about getting me back to were I want to be.
UofU Patient April 20, 2015he is too busy and rushed especial later in the day.
UofU Patient April 20, 2015Follow up is always described as "get in if you need to".
UofU Patient April 13, 2015Both Dr. Beals and his assistant were very good.
UofU Patient April 13, 2015Even though the wait was frustrating, Dr. Beals is fantastic and I can see why people wait to see him
UofU Patient April 13, 2015Dr. Beals always take the time to hear my issues, to fully explain conditions and to answer all my questions.
UofU Patient April 06, 2015Great experience. Very pleased with the results
UofU Patient April 05, 2015excellent
UofU Patient March 30, 2015he is a fantastic surgeon. he always takes the time necessary so that you are informed on all levels.
UofU Patient March 23, 2015I was under the impression he really didn't have time for my case. I may have been wasting his time but when I asked him a couple questions, he brushed me off.
UofU Patient March 20, 2015This staff is very through, kind, efficient, knowledgable and helpful. They have taken care of me very well!
UofU Patient March 20, 2015Visiting with Dr. Beals gave me the first hope I have had since I hurt my foot back in 2006, and it's a wonderful feeling! In a very short period of time, he had a very viable prediction about what could be done to address the ongoing issues I have had. Curiously, the doctor who originally worked on my foot said there was nothing else he could do.
UofU Patient March 16, 2015Excellent experience overall.
UofU Patient March 16, 2015Worth the wait.
UofU Patient March 10, 2015I HAVE FELT THE ENTIRE TIME THAT BOTH DR BEALS AND HIS PA HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD FOR ME EVEN THOUGH I KNOW THEY ARE EXTREMELY BUSY.QUITE QUITE DIFFERENT TO THE LACK OF CARE BOTH IN FLORIDA AND THE UK. I CANNOT SAY ENOUGH GOOD THINGS ABOUT THIS WHOLE EXPERIENCE
UofU Patient March 10, 2015They were very good at what the do when we finally got to see them.
UofU Patient March 10, 2015we feel like office staff understand that it is a 3 plus hour trip for us and they try to get us in so we can return home safely..I80 is not a great experience in the winter
UofU Patient March 08, 2015Dr. Beals is a great listener. I appreciate his responsiveness to my many concerns and questions. I appreciate that he doesn't 'talk down' as many physicals do. He seems truly concerned and caring.
UofU Patient March 04, 2015Dr. Beals is a fantastic doctor.
UofU Patient February 23, 2015This was our first time here but it was so worth the wait. I had all my questions answered there but, I have some new ones since and want to know how to follow up with them regarding scheduling my surgery
UofU Patient February 16, 2015Dr. Beals is great! He listens and addresses your concerns. He also is just plain friendly, so the conversation can go to other places you may be interested in than just your medical concerns. I think that helps to build confidence and trust.
UofU Patient February 08, 2015Dr. Beals and his staff were amazingly friendly, efficient, knowledgeable and fostered a feeling of trust and security in moving forward with the procedure I have to have.
UofU Patient February 03, 2015I appreciated the time I had with Dr. deals, and realized that my only disappointment was that I did not ask several questions that I wish I had. Can I do this with the U of U My Health chart?
UofU Patient February 03, 2015Genuinely interested in my concerns and good diagnosis of my problems.
UofU Patient January 25, 2015Dr. Beals is efficient& excellent regardigpatient time. I have great confidence in him.
UofU Patient January 12, 2015Dr. Beals is always excellent at explaining the issues of my care and answering all of my questions.

UofU Patient December 21, 2014Once I saw the doctor, I was taken care of efficiently and expertly. i appreciate the consideration afforded to me.
UofU Patient December 15, 2014I always feel well taken care of and I know what my prognosis is and what I should do once I leave. I am treated with respect and professionalism.
UofU Patient December 08, 2014Dr. Beals communicated very well my issues and spent plenty of time discussing the procedures. He answered all my questions thoroughly.
UofU Patient November 24, 2014Dr Beals always take the time to make certain I understand ALL aspects of my issues - for that, I am greatly appreciative.
UofU Patient November 24, 2014Absolutely wonderful experience. Could not be more thrilled to be in with Dr. Tim Beals. Listened to every word, thought the explanation of what is happening made perfect sense...have complete confidence in him and know he will do the best possible to help me in any way he can.
UofU Patient November 23, 2014Dr. Beals is amazing! We will never see another doctor for our treatment with this issue. It is too bad that wait times and the nurse weren't a better experience for us. We do have the option of seeing Dr. Beals in Park City, which I think might be a better option for quality of care. Although, Nick Gibbs, who works at the reception desk was very friendly and helpful. The nursing staff could take a few pointers from him.
UofU Patient November 23, 2014Dr. Beals was very caring and informative.
UofU Patient November 06, 2014Dr. Beals always spends a lot of time with his patients (why we always wait so long to get seen). His care, explanations and treatments are always thorough so well worth the wait!
UofU Patient November 03, 2014Dr Beals took time to talk to me and did not seem rushed.
UofU Patient October 28, 2014Dr. Beals and Annabeth are both excellent to work with.

UofU Patient October 26, 2014Dr. Beals is an excellent person to be around. He always makes you feel comfortable and he is easy to trust.
UofU Patient October 19, 2014I felt that he really knew his stuff.
UofU Patient October 12, 2014I feel so confident in Dr. Bealls. Have heard only good things about his abilities.
UofU Patient October 10, 2014I appreciate Dr. Beals' concern and conservative approach to management of a progressive foot condition. I have been trying to avoid surgery and he agreed. He had several recommendations for modifying my orthotics to try before thinking about surgical correction.
UofU Patient October 09, 2014I liked the doctor's professionalism and his including my husband in the discussion. He explained my options in terms I could understand and answered my questions.
UofU Patient October 03, 2014The time spent with Dr. Beals was excellent. He is a great doctor.
UofU Patient September 28, 2014Dr Beale, and his team, were superb!
UofU Patient September 28, 2014Dr. Beals is amazing! he was so helpful and was concerned about me and what I need.
UofU Patient September 28, 2014Dr Beals is outstanding !!
UofU Patient September 16, 2014good
UofU Patient September 08, 2014I thought Dr. Beal was very thorough in my examination and I feel such confidence in his abilities. He spent a good deal of time with me going over my problems.
UofU Patient September 05, 2014I was very impressed with Dr. Beals. He was professional and carefully explained everything so I could understand. He was both kind and considerate.
UofU Patient September 04, 2014I am very impressed Tim Beals and his care. He does not make me feel hurried and answers all my questions. I have never had a doctor as good as he has been. He is very friendly, professionals and knows his profession.
UofU Patient August 29, 2014As I am an amputee, I know how to speed with distinction. I felt that the doctor appreciated my in depth knowledge of my condition.
UofU Patient August 24, 2014Dr Beals - you are truely the best! Wouldn't see anyone else.
UofU Patient August 24, 2014Dr Beals is the most skilled and intelligent surgeon I've had the pleasure of meeting. His ability to articulate concepts and make informed decisions together with his patients is incredible. He truly "practices the art of surgery" and continually improves his value as a surgeon to his organization and to his patients. Remarkable as a professional and an individual, I appreciate hi every step I take on two fused ankles. "TIM ROCKS" could be the mantra of generations of new residents.
UofU Patient August 24, 2014the experience is always exceptional, and I so appreciate the knowledge and consideration of my specific problem exhibited by the doctor. Everyone else with whom I've come in contact is friendly and considerate. Except for the wait time, which I'm willing to accept, the experience is everything a patient would want because it seems personalized.
UofU Patient August 10, 2014Dr Beals is very thorough in seeing I am cared for and wants to find answers for problems that come up.
UofU Patient August 03, 2014My experience with Dr. Beals was consistent with other's recommendations. Just need the staff to communicate delays via phone or text.
UofU Patient July 10, 2014I believe that my initial injury was handled too lightly. Even Dr. Beals told me if I would have saw you initally you wouldnt be in this situation. The sports medicine Dr. I saw should have done more ie: MRI which showed the torn tendon. Instead I am stilling dealing with this issue one year later!
UofU Patient June 16, 2014Dr. Timothy Beals is THE BEST: takes his time, spot on diagnosis, clearly states options, great sense of humor, the whole enchilada! He's the best!
UofU Patient June 05, 2014I have known Dr. Beals for years, having worked with him at the main hospital and have all the faith in the world for his knowledge, confidence and friendliness. You're very fortunate to have a doctor of his caliber.
UofU Patient May 31, 2014Everything went well.
UofU Patient May 11, 2014WOULD NOT RECOMMEND ANYONE ELSE!
UofU Patient May 06, 2014I did not think that I would need surgery for my injury so surgery was not an option for me going in to this appointment. I wish I would have asked him a few more questions. This is not Dr. Beals issue but mine.
UofU Patient April 30, 2014Always learn something new from Dr. Beals -- he's great!
UofU Patient April 28, 2014Dr. Beals an staff were great. He takes time to treat you well. I know that may delay the schedule later in the day. Therefore you try to get a morning appointment. When he has been late during the afternoon I realize it is because he has taken time to really care for the patients before me. I do not begrudge that service given to the others.
UofU Patient April 27, 2014Dr. Beals is truly the best doctor I've ever been to and I've been to more than a few. He has a gift and I appreciate his help and understanding of my condition. I feel very confident in his advice and opinion.
UofU Patient April 22, 2014Dr. Beals is great. Everybody that took care of me seemed truly interested in my well-being.
UofU Patient April 22, 2014good
UofU Patient April 21, 2014Dr. Beals is one of the most compassionate, knowledgeable doctors I know. He goes the extra mile and communicates so the patient understands the problem and what needs to be done.
UofU Patient April 11, 2014Dr. Beals spent a lot of time with me. I never felt rushed. He made sure that I understood everything.
UofU Patient April 01, 2014Even though I was a squeeze in at the end of the day, I did not feel rushed through the appt time and important discussion by anyone who was part of the team.
UofU Patient March 30, 2014Due to the nature of my injury this was almost the best outcome I could hope for.
UofU Patient March 21, 2014Dr. Beals was terrific. He will be on our list of favorite physicians if similar problem occurs in the future.
UofU Patient March 16, 2014Dr. Beals ROCKS.
UofU Patient March 16, 2014The overall experience was exceptional; I very much appreciate the "thoughtfulness," meaning amount of time considering my situation, given to my problem and the willingness to talk to others about the problem. I also felt like Dr. Beals cared about me as a person and took time to understand who I am.
UofU Patient March 13, 2014Just love Dr Beals! Very nice Dr.
UofU Patient February 23, 2014Dr Beals is a miracle worker. thanks to him and God I have my leg to get around on. An very tallented and gifted Dr.
UofU Patient February 23, 2014great!
UofU Patient February 18, 2014I always recommend Dr Beals
UofU Patient January 22, 2014Dr. Beals and his PA were very good at explaining the treatment and what I needed to do. They took time to answer my questions.
UofU Patient December 27, 2013I think Dr Beals is amazing... its some of the other staff that need work. They should take an example from Dr. Beals they just might go far....
UofU Patient December 16, 2013Dr. Beals is the best!
UofU Patient December 09, 2013In my opinion Dr. Beals is the gold standard in health care providers. If all doctors were like him the world would be a better place.
UofU Patient November 25, 2013My sincere thanks and appreciation go to Dr. Beals and his staff. Dr. Beals has helped me so much and is very professional and gifted. I had a simple complaint and Dr. Beals was very gracious in listening to it... and it was in regards to a previous appointment with NP.
UofU Patient November 25, 2013very satisfied
UofU Patient November 25, 2013Dr. Beals is always friendly and professional at the same time. He takes time to fully answer and explain the situation while allowing me to offer suggestions and opinions.
UofU Patient November 18, 2013He is great just too busy! rework the system or change the schedule.
UofU Patient November 18, 2013ok
UofU Patient November 17, 2013I'm totally grateful they were able to get me in for a CT Scan instead of waiting for one in Elko. Now I can move on to get my ankle healed.
UofU Patient November 11, 2013Dr. Beals is undoubtedly a great, caring and extremely knowledgeable physician!!! He just looked at my leg and X-rays and immediately realized what congenital disability I've had and its possible causes, and what medical procedures I have likely gone through in my life, even though this was the first time he saw him. He also described what kind of outdoor activities I can participate and where I can seek help on enjoying these activities. Dr. Beals and his PAs are truly remarkable!!
UofU Patient November 03, 2013Dr. Beals is great!
UofU Patient October 22, 2013Dr. Beals was wonderful at explaining and addressing the problem and giving me exercises to fix it. I left feeling much better and knowing what was was wrong and ways to make it better.
UofU Patient October 14, 2013DR BEALS IS THE BEST. I VALUE HIS OPINION ABOVE ANYONE ELSE.
UofU Patient October 11, 2013I would have to say overall the experience was very good. There was just one instance in which the patient, my daughter, asked, "Will it hurt? (She's afraid of much pain). And the doctor replied, "Not me." Although, quite a funny response, not very empathatic or reassuring to the patient.
UofU Patient October 09, 2013Dr. Beals is excellent in discussing my issues and spends as much time as necessary to answer all my questions. I will recommend him whenever the occasion presentsitself.
UofU Patient October 09, 2013I have known Dr. Beals for years and had worked with his patients when I worked in Same Day Surgery at the main hospital. He is very knowledgeable, dedicated and has the patients interest first and foremost.
UofU Patient September 30, 2013great experience overall. thanks!!
UofU Patient September 25, 2013Great Doctor!
UofU Patient September 03, 2013I love Dr Beals! He truly cares about me & my ankle. He even remembered my husband was on oxygen & asked him how he was doing.
UofU Patient August 20, 2013Dr. Beals and his fellow/resident were wonderful and caring in discussing my post-operative status and outcome.
UofU Patient August 19, 2013My experience with Dr. Beals was very positive. He apologized for the wait and explained he took his time with each patient--always has and always will. He did spend sufficient time with me so I have no complaints in that regard
UofU Patient August 07, 2013I had what I considered 3 separate issues that needed to be discussed. After I left the visit, I felt like I didn't have any information on one of the issues, even though I brought it up. We ended up focusing on one specific issue, but I need to make another appointment somewhere to find out what I need to do about one of the issues, because it was pretty much ignored.
UofU Patient July 27, 2013Love the care I receive from Dr Beals. It's nice having a doctor I can trust.
UofU Patient July 23, 2013Dr. Beals even addressed another issue I had the same day, with a previous appointment. He looked at my lab results & conferred with resident, then prescribed a medication to help other issue. He's great!
UofU Patient July 22, 2013Dr. Beals' excellence is worth the 5 month wait to see him
UofU Patient July 22, 2013Dr Beals was excellent and answered all my questions
UofU Patient July 22, 2013Dr. Beals is great. He really is the best doctor I've ever had. I wish he did more than just feet. He was kind, concerned, and helped me understand what was going on with my foot.
UofU Patient July 09, 2013dr Beals is grat I have been a patient for several years and I am always treated with respect
UofU Patient July 02, 2013I felt more time was spent wth the doctor talking to the residents than he did to me as the patient. I feel that I am in the same situation that I was before my appointment. nothing was resolved.
UofU Patient June 26, 2013Very wonderful when talking to you and addressing concerns. Pleasant bedside manner, and very helpful in making sure the outcomes are as you desire.
UofU Patient June 17, 2013Dr.Beals used the time to teach and made me happy I went to him for his advice
UofU Patient June 17, 2013Dr. Beals was excellent in taking the time to address all the issues
UofU Patient June 06, 2013I have trust in my doctor and that the surgery he performed is going to help in the long run and that I will be able to carry on a normal life, walking and getting around much better!
UofU Patient June 04, 2013I never received a follow-up call from a physician, but relied only on the information given to me by the technician conducting the scan.
UofU Patient June 04, 2013Dr. Beals is always courteous, friendly, and direct. He always takes time to discuss my questions and concerns, which is always why I return to him. Despite the fact that I never leave his office in less than two hours, I will return to him, and plan accordingly. He's the best.
UofU Patient May 07, 2013Issue with foot not yet resolved!
UofU Patient April 03, 2013Dr. Beals has been wonderful; he's an excellent surgeon, and a fine man. I have really appreciated his care and concern for my health. Thank you again so very much.
UofU Patient April 01, 2013Very impressive doctor - friendly and yet super knowledgeable. Solved my problem for which I'd nearly given up hope of solving.
UofU Patient March 11, 2013I have the highest regard for Dr. Beals and he was very attentive in talking to me and instructive of what I needed to do to help alleviate my foot problem.
UofU Patient February 26, 2013Even though it was a long wait we love Dr. Beals.
UofU Patient February 26, 2013Dr. Beal's really took the time with us to explain the plan for my daughter's surgery, and our concerns.
UofU Patient February 25, 2013He was great and very helpful
UofU Patient February 25, 2013Dr Beals is one of the best, knowledgeable, concerned and friendly Dr. I have ever experienced. He listens to you and determines if your symptons validate what the pictures show as the problem. If they are different, he tries to come up with a suggestion as to next steps to be taken.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013Dr. Beal's and his staff are amazing. No complaints, except for the extraordinary wait time.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013I feel very confident in my decision to choose U of U and with my Dr to perform my ankle surgery.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013Dr. Beals did a great job with my surgery. I forgot to thank him for that at this visit. If this message can be passed on to him from me, please do so.
UofU Patient February 18, 2013I really appreciate Dr. Beals' conservative approach.
UofU Patient January 14, 2013Dr. Beal's and all of the attending personnel were excelent.
UofU Patient December 31, 2012I came from another orthopedist ( not unhappy with him but a change in insurance networks contracts had eliminated him). Though I wasn't un happer with former at the time, I was really enthused by Dr Beals and resident by time and thoroughness. And a recommendation that there were possible repercussions of having surgery on adjacent joints. Dr.Beals could empathize by telling me how he treats his own osteoarthritis. He said (unlike the previous doctor) that he thought waiting rather than surgery was the better option.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012Dr. Beals is exceptional--a great physician.
UofU Patient December 10, 2012Dr. Beals made another doctor (Skip Coleman) aware of my presence as I was a former patient. I really appreciated that extra effort because it relieved some of the stress of my visit there and the procedure I am facing. Dr Beals was also making good use of a learning opportunity for the Resident Physician (James) and showed particular interest in my case and me
UofU Patient December 03, 2012Dr beals is very down to earth and easy to talk to.
UofU Patient November 19, 2012As always, I think of all the questions I want to aske AFTER I leave. I still have some questions. He said I had a strange combination of injuries. Why didn't I just say "What do you mean?" That's why I went to him was to find out specifics and then I don't ask while I was in there. There was a spot on my MRI (cuboid area-ish) my dr here wasn't sure about... wanted to ask Dr. Beal about it.
UofU Patient November 05, 2012In spite of the long wait, it was worth it to see Dr Beals and get the good news.
UofU Patient November 05, 2012Felt like we were the only thing he had going that day! Impressed with time spent and the extent of exam.
UofU Patient November 01, 2012Dr. Beals is great, the wait time is rediculous
UofU Patient October 24, 2012Really, this was excellent service.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012Dr. Beals is awesome!
UofU Patient October 15, 2012Dr. Beals took care and used good sterile technique when removing stitches. He cautioned me to wait a period of time before walking because of the placement of the incision ( stitches). It's always a good experience to see him.
UofU Patient October 09, 2012Dr. Beals has always been very attentive and listened to my concerns. He clarified the procedures and answered my questions.
UofU Patient September 29, 2012Dr. Beals is a good man
UofU Patient September 14, 2012I appreciate that Dr. Beals listens to his patients and gives them the time they need. I have always felt that way about how he has dealt with me. However, I wish I had been informed that he was delayed with another patient while I waited for over an hour for him.
UofU Patient September 04, 2012He is so good that I would place my life in his hands if need be.
UofU Patient August 06, 2012This was a very good experience from the beginning. Dr.Beals explained the process and my options to me and answered all my questions very patiently, the staff, the anesthesiologists and the nurses were very nice and made me feel very much at ease. I could not have the progress I have had without their help and support.
UofU Patient August 06, 2012Everything was most excellent. Well above my expectations!
UofU Patient July 30, 2012All care providers did their very best to accomodate my needs. The Doctor was especially great in explaining my problems and solutions. I really don't have the adequate words to describe how pleased I was with the visit.
UofU Patient July 23, 2012Dr. Beals is exceptional at what he does. He is fantastic. But, if he is going to spend a long, long time with every patient and know this is going to put him so far behind, his appts should be scheduled further apart so patients don't have to experienc
UofU Patient July 23, 2012He listened to my concerns very carefully and then reviewed the problems with my feet and ankles. He then clearly outlined the best way to try to relieve the pain. He was very thorough and spent the necessary time not hurying through the examination. [
UofU Patient July 10, 2012Dr. Beals rocks. Great bedside manner. He's one of the nicest doctors I've ever had.
UofU Patient June 28, 2012I felt confident and relieved to have such great care from Dr. Beals and staff.

UofU Patient May 18, 2012Dr. Beals is the best!!
UofU Patient April 13, 2012I would recommend Dr. Beals to anyone with foot problems
UofU Patient April 06, 2012Excellant
UofU Patient March 30, 2012Dr. Beals is great. Just wish the wait times could somehow be improved. I do appreciate that he takes extra care with patients but maybe that should be factored into scheduling. I need to make money too and staying excessively long in waiting impacts me also.
UofU Patient March 30, 2012Dr. Beal's explanation of his analysis of my problem and treatment were clear.
UofU Patient March 27, 2012excellent, caring physician
UofU Patient March 23, 2012He is kind, knowledgable, an excellent physician, I would trust him with my life.
UofU Patient March 13, 2012I felt that the dr. I saw was very current on procedures and knew what would and would not work on me. He didn't try to push me into surgery, which I appreciate.
UofU Patient March 13, 2012All Good
UofU Patient February 17, 2012I have only great things to say about Dr. Beals. He is an excellent doctor.
