Dr. Basil Rashad Besh, MD

Absolutely worst experience ever with a doctor! My 15-year-old daughter was having wrist pain(only). Our first appointment, he asked us many questions and did a one-minute exam on her wrist and concluded that she had an auto immune disease and needed to see an auto immune doctor. He told her that she has rheumatoid arthritis at the age of 15 with only wrist pain and no other symptoms. I made an appointment with the auto immune doctor, but it was 3 months out. My daughter was having anxiety over this diagnosis, so I asked her pediatrician for advice. The pediatrician immediately ran a full blood panel INCLUDING ALL auto immune and rheumatoid markers. My daughter had a thorough exam as well and the pediatrician said that there is no reason to believe that she has an auto immune disease with perfect bloodwork, perfect exam and only wrist pain. We went back to our 6 weeks follow up appointment with Dr. Besh and I explained to him the homework that we have done on her health while we… waited for auto immune specialist appointment. He was OUTRAGED that we saw her female pediatrician and looked for some answers. He said to my daughter, you have an auto immune disease and by your mom not taking you to the auto immune doctor, your disease will not go away. Broadway (she is a performer) doesn’t care that you have a disease. My daughter started to cry. Dr. Besh then says, why are you crying? She says, because I am scared to have an auto immune disease. Dr. Besh says, crying won’t make it go away. You mother needs to take you to an auto immune doctor. He then says, as he slams the folder on the desk…I cannot help you until you see the auto immune doctor and I would be happy to sign your file to another doctor. While all of this was happening 3 nurses came in the calm/observe his behavior. The staff and nurses are nice, and I could tell that they were appalled at his behavior…at this point, we were both in tears. I could not believe the way we were being treated. Especially a child. It was a horrible, ugly, disrespectful experience that my daughter will never forget. We went to another wrist specialist who didn’t believe that it was an auto immune disease. He sent us to a neurologist who did a complete nerve and tendon test and confirmed that she had Carpal Tunnel syndrome. She recommends vitamin B6 300mg a day, wrist braces, rest and to set up an ergonomic distance learning desk. With 3 weeks, (after months of pain and many tests, doctor visits) she was feeling much better. In closing, Dr. Besh treated me and my 15-year-old daughter in the worst manner possible. He did not care for her wellness, pain and refused to listen to her. He was cruel and mean to a child and disrespectful to me who was trying to advocate for my daughter. That is not acceptable behavior for anyone let alone a doctor!! I feel like he let his ego get in the way of doing what’s best for my daughter. We never received an apology.

Did a great job with my hand surgery. Compassionate and Profession all along the way. Office well run.

Informed me of all options of treat and best possible avenues. Allowed me to make my own choices in treatment and help facilitate these choices

Dr Besh operated on my finger and I am pain free now. Operating facility and staff were great. Everything his office does is well organized, on time and done with warmth and attention to people. I am very impressed with their Physical Therapy compared to some other places I have used in the past. There are so many gadgets, exercise machines and the therapists are very knowledgeable and attentive. It is a great package, built around this wonderful surgeon.

I' been to doctor offices before. But never ever to 1 where all the staff was too nice and very friendly. I kept getting offered coffe, water and juice. Like 3 times every time with the most friendliest smile that made me smile. Doctor Besh was quick. Didn't make me wait long. He is one great Doctor! He said something too me that change my life. It clicked on my head and now I own a business. I'll never forget him. I'm glad I went here.

The employees Veronica and chasity are very sweet and hard working .. and help me in everything that I need necessary because I don’t know English well but they are always very positive always smiling and always giving great service & ive also notices they treat all patients of different races great .

How do you thank someone, for giving you a second chance? I had two hands that were crippled and disfigured, and now they’re restored to perfection . Dr. Besh, is a confident and caring surgeon! Who expects perfection, and delivers. Every member of his staff is a true professional. From start to finish I had total confidence! I would highly recommend Dr. Besh to my family and friends!

Dr.Besh was recommended to me and I would recommend him to those who have problems with their arms, hands & shoulders.

He is very experienced in his field. Able to explain the plan of care in a very clear manner.

The entire staff, from those at the front desk to the entire therapy staff to the nursing staff, are all outstanding! I received so many helpful tips on how to best recover post surgery and what exercises would help strengthen my thumb, along with positive support! Thank you Team Besh!!
