Again, couldn't have been better. I know I thanked the assistants but I wish I had thanked Dr. Beals personally for his expertise and his friendliness and consideration. The whole team made me feel at ease and encouraged.

I was very impressed by Dr. Beals. He was very knowlegable, understanding and experienced.
So impressed with Dr.Beal and his work.
I would recommend the provider, however the wait time once taken back was not great. I basically had 5 minutes with the provider because I had to be back to work at a certain time. I would have liked the appointment to not be as rushed. I gave the appointment 90 minutes before I had to be back to work and felt this was more than enough time.
Dr. Beals and his PA Eric we're both extremely helpful, took the time to evaluate my injury and answer all of my questions, provided options and recommendations for recovery and we're genuine in their care.
Dr. Biels Answered all questions and concerns, listened to questions and provided excellent advice to move forward with PT.

Dr. Saltzman is excellent, even though I will have to wait a couple months longer than I had hoped for surgery on my other foot. He explained how my right foot had to completely heal before the left foot could be operated on.
Saltman was thorough, informative, and explained why my feet were in the condition they were in.

I'm so happy with my result from surgery. Dr Saltzman was the best, great sense of humor, answered ally questions. So thankful I found him. Ryan was great to work with as well.
Dr. Saltzman, his assistant Ryan, and his entire team displayed the utmost compassion and professionalism throughout my treatment (surgery) and recovery from a badly broken ankle.
Dr. Saltzman seems to be a rare breed of doctor compared to all my years of orthopedic are elsewhere. He listens to my questions, provides informative answers, and is so compassionate and friendly in doing so, plus he has a great sense of humor. I feel so very fortunate to have ended up in his care and cannot imagine there is anyone more skilled in performing the planned surgery.
Dr Saltzman spent time in reading my records and listening to my issues. He called in Dr Kazmers for his opinion on the pain in my foot and worked together finding options which were clearly explained. I was then sent to outpatient to see if a nerve block would help diagnose a solution. Both doctors came downstairs to follow up with me person. I mentioned to the resident I have never had such an attentive doctor visit with going above and beyond to find a solution. It reminded me of what I had heard about visits to the Mayo Clinic, working to make it the least difficult for the patient and finding answers without making you come back 6 different times. I was surprised when I read in Dr Saltzman's vitae that he had done a fellowship at the Mayo Clinic! It certainly showed!! I hope the U knows they have such dedicated doctors and show appreciation.
Everyone from the receptionist to the doctor, PA and X-ray technicians was very attentive to me and my questions. I was very impressed with everyone.
Dr. Saltzman is attentive, kind and caring. He treats patients as individuals and listens carefully to concerns. He is very good at explaining the exact cause of the problem and all options. Some of the explanations are for the benefit of the resident accompanying Dr. Saltzman, but as a patient, I appreciate seeing the x-rays and hearing the anatomical descriptions, too.
Dr. Saltzman has always been amazing. I haven't worked with Ryan before but he was also great.

Hailey Vanderhill, PA stayed with me until all my concerns & questions were addressed. She involved me in the treatment plan. Very professional!
I truly feel very lucky to have Haley as my orthopedic provider. From out initial visit after I sustained the Injury, she showed such compassion and concern. She made me feel at ease, and is very genuine. She thoroughly listened to my concerns as I explained that I'm a busy mom, nurse, student and didn't know how to function with an injury. She took so much time with me during both of our visits, and provided education and answered my numerous questions. We looked at the X-rays together and she ensured I understood the treatment plan. I am so thankful for her time and expertise. She is a caring, patient, and an excellent provider and I am grateful she is overseeing my care.
