Shawn Beck's Online Review Report Card

Not a fan. Not great bedside manner. Didn’t look at test results and his demeanor was… “ oh well, take some meds and see what happens “ Then he calls in a rx that’s been discontinued for the last 4 years due to medical side effects.

Cold and brutal man. How the hell he became a kids doctor is insane. First do no harm means absolutely nothing to him! Run anywhere else!

I had lithotripsy on a Thursday evening. The nurse at the surgical center gave me a number to call in case I had any problems. Friday I was ok, then Saturday I was doubled over in horrible pain, throwing up, couldn't keep water down, couldn't pee. I called the number. My doc was not on call. This guy was. He answered the phone in an abrupt manner and when I asked for his name, he didn't want to give it. He finally said "Shawn". I said ok Dr. Shawn I am having problems. He finally said his last name was Beck. He then told me he couldn't possibly diagnose me over the phone and why was I calling. Either go to the ER or don't. Then he said he didn't recommend going to the ER. I suffered until late that night, nearly 24 hours. By the next morning I passed 3 good sized stones and a lot of gravel and sand. He was no help at all. Made me feel bad for bothering him. I see he is a pediatric urologist. I would never take a child of mine to him.

I had a medical procedure involving a camera. I told the Dr. I couldn't take the pain. Dr. Beck yelled at me and asked me if I want the procedure done correctly. What could I say, at this time I had a out of body experience f r om the Truma and Anxiety. I ended up hospitalized in a manic episode. Dr. Beck never returned my call to see if it was normal to urinate blood wit b clots in it after 3 hours. Dr. Park returned my after hours within 15 minutes and asked if I was taking blood thinners. I said yes as he advised me to stop and follow up with my primary Doctor. I can't believe Dr. Beck treats children, I would feel bad for any parent that wo I ld have to deal with his terrible bedside manner

Dr. Beck was very direct, answered all my questions, no nonsense. He got the job done, and did it well. His style and approach may not suit some but others may prefer his frankness over friendliness.

Makes you wait a long time and then is unfathomably rude. He was straight up mean.

Considerable attention paid to diagnosis and prognosis of my issues. Willing to listen to my comments on differential treatments. Always prefer causally rude bedside manner to casually wrong diagnosis. I find such complaints, to the extent they are true, are irrelevant to treatment outcomes.

Spent time answering all my questions and explaining everything very well. I would recommend this doctor.

This guy is exactly what is wrong with our healthcare system. He told me to "chill the f**k out", recommended trying muscle relaxers, and totally disregarded my reported symptoms. I was 18 years old at the time. All he had to do was give me a simple ultrasound. One year later, because of this neglect I had to undergo a complicated surgery because my varicocele had grown so much that it made my testicular ...

To say he has poor bedside manner is the understatement of the century. He was flat out mean. My wife came home in tears after bringing our daughter to see Dr. Beck. My daughter too. He claims to be the only pediatric urologist around but we found another, thank goodness. Oh and they had to wait 45 minutes. It's like your time, your dignity, and basically nothing about you, matter, when visiting Dr. Beck.
