Rowena Mcbeath's Online Review Report Card

I have seen everything you can imagine a a nurse with 30 years experience in critical care, trauma , military air evacuation and recovery room care. Only a handful of doctors impress me. Dr. McBeath is an angel with the skill, knowledge, passion and care that is second to none. Grace & skill with compassion are witnessed by the nurses who see everything. Other surgeons can not come close. I’ve witnessed her compassion when she explains an urgent operation to a frail little lady who broke her hand late at night on a weekend. I’ve seen her calmly and professionally explain the operation to a frustrated man who cut off many fingers only to awaken after a marathon surgery overnight that other doctors may have walked away from . I notice and other nurses notice the few ‘true heroes’ that make a difference. If my family member gets hurt, I pray that she is available and so should you!

She’s nasty!!

Dr. McBeath is one of the most knowledgeable physicians I’ve ever encountered. As soon as she saw my x-rays, she knew my diagnosis. Not only that, but she immediately recognized an underlying rare condition as well. It was so quick that I obviously had to go home and research it more, comparing my own x-rays to those online. I was SO impressed. As someone else mentioned, she did seem a bit stiff to me, but I also saw her for 10-15 minutes. I don’t expect her to cozy up and ask for my life story. She didn’t have a negative disposition. She didn’t do anything extreme my first go around, opting for a minimally invasive treatment plan. I did return for a follow up and she was completely fine. She smiled too.

Awesome experience, if visiting a doctor for surgery can be awesome. Dr. McBeath explained my all options, her plan of care and answered all questions. Visits seemed short yet she conveyed all needed information.

Extremely knowledgeable personable, caring, physician. During examination she stated exactly what she was about to do. A model physician.

being on Medicaid for the time being it's tough to find someone good, let alone some one who takes the insurance. Anyway, she was a lovely doctor, did a fantastic job on the tendon repair to my ring finger. So good even, I barely needed physical therapy. I will recommend her to anyone who asks. thank you for fixing my hand!

She was great , understood what i was trying to tell her about my pain. she took the time to answer all questions. took good care of me. trust her

Dr McBeath is an outstanding physician, excellent surgeon and very intelligent and compassionate. She repaired my thumb following a serious table saw injury and I am grateful for her work.

For someone who wrote this on an application for an award,"Empathy, so important to medicine, as in the ability to understand the feelings of others — this quality is inherent in music. By playing my violin, I am continually in touch with those around me, and provide others the same safe haven music provides for me.", I find her to have no empathy for patients. She never smiles,has no social skills. She should have stayed with the music career, this way, she doesn't have to interact with people

I was treated by two other hand surgeons before Dr McBeath for it right. She is very kind, patient, listens to your concerns and will no push any unnecessaryprocedures . Dr McBeath actually called me twice to address my concerns, very rare for a doctor. Her staff is awesome and very knowledgeable!
