Steven Beanes's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Beanes was very professional, great communicator, very kind and understanding.

My GP recommended Dr. Beanes along with a couple of other Dr.s. Once I picked Dr. Beanes, I was quickly impressed, not only with his schooling and background but with his experience. From the first day I met him, he took as much time as I needed to go over the procedure, and what to expect before and after the surgery. He made me feel important and comfortable every time we talked. A few days after the surgery, I had a questions about some minor pain etc. When I called and left a message, I was expecting to hear form a nurse on the return call, that was not the case. In fact Dr. Beanes called me himself and not only answered my question but wanted to make sure all and any other questions I had were answered. He was genuinely concerned as to my wellbeing! He impressed my from day 1. I can tell what a great job he did as I have been recovering perfectly and feel great and it has been three weeks. If you have any questions as to what Dr. to pick for Hernia Surgery, you do not need to look any further than Dr. Beanes. I have been so happy with him, and I highly recommend him! Todd Macfarland

Excellent surgeon and very caring human being.

Dr. Beanes is by far the best surgeon... I had 6 hernia surgeries at Hoag, all by different doctors. The first five use the direct method and each repair didnt take. I dont know if it was the surgeon or bad mesh, but it didnt take. The last repair was done by Dr. Beanes thru the arthroscopic method: a couple small holes, not a 5 hole in my gut. I had very little pain, compared to my previous hernia repairs using the arthroscopic method, and recovered much faster, by a long shot. Dr. Beanes was outstanding. He fixed me!! I cant tell you how debilitating a hernia is for an active adult: job, family, sports, etc. Dr. Beanes gave me my life back. The surgery was done about 8 years ago and I have had not reoccurrences. He is amazing!! I would recommend him again and again. Thank You, Dr. Beanes.

Had a nice experience with Dr. Beanes, and a great recovery. Overall great doctor.

From presurgery through surgery and follow up Dr. Beanes is top notch. He answers all questions and one doesnt feel like hes waiting to move on to the next patient. Hes your guy.

About 2 weeks ago Dr. Beanes repaired my right hernia and the results were identical to my first hernia operation on the left side 10 years ago, excellent. This time he operated arthroscopically and my recovery was faster and without any complications or problems of any kind, like my first hernia repair. I appreciatively recommend him as a excellent doctor and surgeon with the skills, demeanor, education and experience patients can trust.

Dr. Beanes was great. He was very through in explaining my condition. He interpeted the Imaging results for me and explained the significance of each test. His staff was very professional and friendly. He clearly explained the risks accoatied with surgery. Fortunately I do not need surgery at this time. I would feel very confident going back to Dr. Beanes if I did need surgery.

I could not be happier with the experience that I had with Dr. Beanes, for a hernia surgery. From the initial consultation, to the actual surgery (including preop and postop), to the followup examination, my expectations were entirely met and even exceeded. The explanation from Dr. Beanes was thorough, and his expertise allowed me to be able to resume most all activities well before the original suggestion of 46 weeks.

At age 79, I developed an umbilical hernia at the site of a previous surgical incision. I was referred to Dr. Beanes because of his reputation as a fine surgeon. I couldnt be more pleased. Other then the anesthetic during surgery, I did not need any pain medication during my recovery. I did have to be careful getting in and out of bed for the first 2 or 3 days, otherwise I feel great. He really seems to know his business and explains what to expect in detail. His office staff as well as the staff at the surgical center are all friendly and very helpful. Just a great bunch of professional people. I would not hesitate to use Dr. Beanes services again.

I was more than satisfied with the treatment I received from Dr Beanes regarding my hernia. Both the presurgery and postsurgery experience was excellent. I liked their followups too. There were no problems when I had to reschedule the date of the procedure thanks to the superfriendly and efficient staff at his 510 Superior Avenue offices and at the Newport Plaza Surgical Center.

Could not express enough how impressed and happy I was with Dr Beanes. He is professional, caring, and has a great bedside manner I had a hernia repair and he, his staff, and the surgery center were wonderful. Dr Beanes took time with me and answered all my questions and concerns, his staff was friendly, helpful and very responsive. I would highly recommend him to anyone!

Just had surgery and needed to comment on how professional and nice the entire staff was! They made a difficult day for me a lot better ! Explained,answered questions and made it as comfortable as possible. Dr Beanes gave me a lot of confidence by just saying Im going to take good care of you just before going in. Thanks,Bruce Loman

I met Dr. Beanes as a second opinion for a hernia, my perspective from him was his professionalism, very knowledgeable, and super kind. He explain everything in detail answer all my questions, and he made me feel like he cared. So I decided that he will be the surgeon to fix me. His scheduler: Nelly was very sufficient, she got me in for surgery right away before going on my trip to Europe, my post op recovery went great with no issues. I will definitely recommend him to my family and friends. His such a blessing, couldn’t be any happier (:

Dr. Beanes is one of the most kindest, caring and responsible surgeons that I have ever met! I have nothing but positive things to say about him. He is very passionate about what he does and is also very prompt on everything! He takes his time to answer all questions and concerns and never makes you feel rushed. The most important thing I like is his honesty. If surgery is not required he will tell you , and if it is especially urgently him and his staff work diligently to accommodate you! I highly recommend Dr. Beanes to anyone I couldnt be happier with him and the results of my surgery. I give him 5 stars!!!!

This guy is a butcher. I went in for a simple procedure to repair a hernia and never healed from the surgery. Turns out he didnt use a large enough piece of mess so the existing hernia just pushed out the edge. The only thing worse than Dr Beanes is his staff and the only thing worse than them is Newport Plaza Surgical Center. These are Hoag affiliates and Hoag is only in it for the money not quality patient care.

I was actually BEOYND impressed with this Doctor! I had to see him for an embarrassing hemorrhoid issue and he made me feel comfortable and spent all the time in world with me answering questions in a calm manner, He was very caring and impressive. One of best doctors I have ever met.

He saved my life

A very good surgeon. Had 2 surgeries under his care and both were excellent experiences.

Wonderful doctor, highly recommend!
