UofU Patient December 17, 2014I is Anna Beck how could anyone not be confident!
UofU Patient December 15, 2014I have been in Dr. Beck's care for nearly a year. I am highly confident that I am receiving the best possible care ever. God Bless Dr. Beck!!!!!
UofU Patient November 15, 2014Love Dr. Beck!
UofU Patient November 14, 2014Have always admired Anna Beck's straightforward, honest approach, her eagerness to express options and details ... and behind it all a heart of understanding and compassion. And wit.
UofU Patient November 13, 2014Dr. Beck has been amazing through my cancer journey. I can't imagine having to do this without her.
UofU Patient November 08, 2014I am made to feel that they have plenty of time to exam, instruct, and discuss my care with me. I have totally confidence in the care I receive there.
UofU Patient November 05, 2014Dr. Anna Beck is the best doctor I have ever had. She gives you complete information and is extremely caring. The University is very lucky to have her on their staff!!
UofU Patient November 03, 2014I always recommend Dr. Beck to friends. she is amazing and never rushes me, answering all questions and really cares about my health.
UofU Patient October 30, 2014Dr. Beck, her assistant Vicki, the nurse at the main radiology desk, the scheduler Pam and a neurosurgeon appeared simultaneously to explain the results of the test and reveal news that cancer had returned, this time to my bones. It was a little confusing, but everyone was kind through the overload of information.
UofU Patient October 12, 2014had good experience in the past
UofU Patient September 20, 2014excellent
UofU Patient September 20, 2014Dr Beck and her staff are very professional and caring
UofU Patient September 06, 2014I'm concerned about how dexamethasone was ordered as a pre-med for my chemo that day when in the past Dr Beck said I wasn't supposed to get it. There was no mention of giving me that drug during the visit, and we reviewed all of my drugs in detail.
UofU Patient September 02, 2014I am so grateful for Dr Beck.
UofU Patient September 01, 2014Dr. Beck is the best!
UofU Patient August 07, 2014I would recommend Dr. Beck to anyone who needs care.
UofU Patient July 12, 2014Dr. Beck emailed me the day following my appointment regarding some new research she had just seen that morning that was pertinent to the conversation we had had at my appointment. I really appreciated that.
UofU Patient July 10, 2014Dr. Beck is an amazing Dr and a great person. I feel she has helped keep me alive longer that has been expected. She is great.
UofU Patient July 07, 2014Dr. Beck and her staff were extremely kind and compasionate. They were very good at listening to my issues and helping me resolve my concerns. After receiving a "second opinion" about treatment last year, I chose to return to Dr. Beck for my ongoing care. She was much more proactive, knowledgeable, involved and concerned than the local oncologist I used for the last year. The five hour drive to Salt Lake is worth the care that Dr. Beck provides.
UofU Patient July 05, 2014I did want to mention that the Medical Student that talked with me before Dr. Beck, I don't remember his name. But when I mentioned some concerns, he seemed to brush them off and was condescending as he explained some things. I know I am not a Dr., but no one likes to be made to feel stupid, and that was how he made me feel. He maybe just needs a little work on his bedside manner and how he talks to people. No problems at all with Dr. Beck or nursing staff, we love coming there, it is a peaceful place to come and get cancer treatment and except for the experience with the med student this time, we have never had a complaint. thank you for listening.
UofU Patient July 04, 2014I loved the attention that I received
UofU Patient June 30, 2014Great experience! It would be even better if you could get rid of these Hot Flashes :)
UofU Patient June 19, 2014Dr Beck is awesome.
UofU Patient June 15, 2014Dr. Beck is the best!
UofU Patient June 14, 2014DR Anna Beck is the greatest!!
UofU Patient June 06, 2014I have seen Dr. Beck before she came to the Huntsman. I am so glad to be under her care again. She saved my life after my bone marrow transplant years ago.
UofU Patient May 18, 2014Due to my current diagnosis, it isn't possible to give a full explanation of all the variables and unknowns; however, Dr. Beck has spent a considerable amount of time helping me understand the range of potential outcomes. I am very confident in her as my oncologist. I especially appreciated how she has empowered me to be a part of the decision making process, and the amount of time she always spends with me. It seems it would be rare to find an individual with such advanced professional skills, empathy and understanding, but I am blown away at each visit because that is what I experience from Dr. Beck, Vickie, and the entire staff at Huntsman. Dr. Beck and Vicky serve as role models that will help many women feel comforted as they offer them greater education and professional advice. This is so important as women with cancer, who are walking the tight rope between life and death.
UofU Patient May 17, 2014I have complete confidence in the care provider and I do recommend her every time I have a chance.
UofU Patient May 16, 2014DR Beck was so good at Explaining things that she left on questions!
UofU Patient May 16, 2014The information that I attain each time I go is very good. Both my husband and I are very pleased with this facility and have had the opportunity toexperience other topo grande institutions which cannot hold a candle to you.
UofU Patient May 06, 2014We were blown away with the amount of time Dr. Beck took with us. Her computer graphic program was a big help in understanding the outcomes of various treatment plans. She spent a lot of time just listening to my mother tell her experience and addressed each and every concern. She is amazing!

UofU Patient April 28, 2014Dr Anna Beck is a knowlegable, and caring physician. She answered all my questions and gave me probably more information than I really wanted! She was willing to spend time with me to make sure I understand what's happening to me. I think I'm in good hands!
UofU Patient April 26, 2014Dr. Beck addressed my emotional concerns initially which made it easier to discuss the medical situation.
UofU Patient April 20, 2014As I commented in the previous question, I was able to relate to Dr. Beck. She put the situation in prospective manner in such a way, that I fully understand my cancer and how to deal with it.
UofU Patient April 14, 2014Dr. Beck is a wonderful provider. She is adept at balancing clinical expertise with much empathy and grace. I look forward to a long term relationship with her. I would absolutely recommend her to all.
UofU Patient April 12, 2014Dr. Beck is very supportive through all stages of the process of cancer.
UofU Patient April 09, 2014At this point, I don't really have too much knowledge to provide concerning my future treatment until we get test results back.

UofU Patient March 04, 2014I have 100% confidence in Dr. Beck. She makes me feels like we make team decisions and she is not there to just tell me what I have to do.
UofU Patient February 07, 2014I would recommend Dr. Anna Beck to everyone I know with cancer.symtoms

UofU Patient July 17, 2013I was so impressed that Dr. Beck knew more about my situation than I did. She had obviously studied my records and remembered important facts. I was very flattered. I felt a good connection. The thought did cross my mind that they (the dr and nurse) probably needed to get on to other patients - but they didn't rush me and made me feel like I was their main concern.

UofU Patient July 15, 2013Dr. Anna Beck is the very best in her field, in my opinion.

UofU Patient April 01, 2013We are still a bit confused about my sessions i thought from start to finsh it would be 6 on my last session i found out by the chemo nurse i only had 1 more session total of 4.
UofU Patient April 01, 2013Dr. Beck is an excellent doctor. She is a good listener, is responsive to problems and treats patients in a very caring manner. She gives you her full attention when she is with you and she returns phone calls promptly. I would highly recommend her to anyone going through breast cancer.

UofU Patient February 25, 2013I just wish that my care provider was listed as a PPO with my insurance. The insurance says that other providers at Huntsman are on my PPO, but I am very pleased with Dr. Beck and want to remain with her!

UofU Patient December 10, 2012Dr. Beck was very helpful and she helped all of us very much. She asked questions about how I was feeling and other questions. I would recommend her.
UofU Patient November 26, 2012I was very satisfied with the entire visit.
UofU Patient November 22, 2012First experience was with Dr. Beck whom I respect and love as a provider. Second was with accupuncture which went well. I am excited about the ideal of the services offered for survivors since we still have so much to deal with still. It so goes beyond treatment; it is post treatment services that hopefully will address my on going needs.
UofU Patient November 20, 2012Dr.Beck is one of the finest oncologists we have ever seen, including all the doctors we saw in Washington, DC in 2008/2009.
UofU Patient October 23, 2012I was a little concerned about the side effects of medication because I do not remember talking about them but it was a very long visit so we could have and I do not remember. The follow-up care was to go to the Wellness center and they were going to call me be it has been a week and I haven't heard from them so I did call them and leave a message. I am not sure exactly what they need to know about my care. I thought the nurse had to talk to them first but once again maybe I misunderstood. Very possible with my state of mind...
UofU Patient October 22, 2012I truly had a great experience in this Clinic.... Dr. Beck was very attentive and gave me great advice on things I needed to do to regain my strength and rebuild my life. Love her...
UofU Patient October 20, 2012This was my first visit to Dr. Beck and I found her very likable and informative and concerned about my condition. I really enjoyed my office visit with her.
UofU Patient October 15, 2012Dr. Beck is the best. I would follow her to any medical facility, no matter what.
