Dr. Beard is an excellent provider in all phases of care. I would recommend her to anyone.

Dr. Beard had zero bed-side manner and was extremely factual and not sensitive to my situation. I would 100% never recommend anyone to go see Dr. Beard. Her lack of compassion was disgusting.

Dr. Beard took her time to explain what is going on with me. She answered all my questions and concerns. I felt relieved once I left her office.

Dr. Abigail Beard was highly recommended to me by a former patient. She not only met those high expectations but she exceeded them. She listened intently understood and made notes about background. Gave me visuals and detailed explanations as I requested. I am a retired reporter who still asks many questions. She answered them all. Took time to explain and even draw illustrations. She put me at ease, was so compassionate as well as willing to answer direct questions. I am extremely blessed to have her as my surgeon.
