We waited an hour with our newborn and still did not see Dr. Benson. Clearly it was not important to the staff that we were new parents and our kiddo was flipping out. Very disappointing !

Dr. Benson was great working with my son. Before surgery all our questions/concerns were addressed promptly. She even painted a cool soccer ball on my son's cast. Tifanee and Pam in the office were especially helpful to ensure all our insurance approvals were complete. I really appreciated all their hard work! Dr. Benson is AWESOME, I highly recommend her.

I am forever grateful for this wonderful team - Dr. Benson, Paul, Jordan, Eric, Kaitlyn... We are so lucky to have been connected with them. I can't express my appreciation enough and every interaction with this team and office has been very positive.

My experience with Dr. Benson was wonderful. For the first time in my son's life, and many many doctors later, I didn't feel like I had to explain my son's condition to her. For once a doctor who listened to my concerns and gave me the best options to move forward. I felt at a stand still for atleast 2 years and left her office with the confidence that things were finally looking up for us! We opted for surgical correction and she was great through the entire process, she took extra time to explain things, answer questions and offer support. She truly is a wonderful doctor that cares for her patients.

Dr Benson could not be a more caring, invested, knowledgeable physician. Her bedside manner is wonderful! At my son's recent appointment, she brought in one of her long time patients (a bright, lovely, thriving young lady) to alleviate my unspoken fears that my son's hand difference may hold him back. It was a touching, and kind, gesture that meant the world to me. We are grateful to have her in our lives, and as his hand surgeon.
