Dr. Akinlolu Sunmolu Beckley JR., MD

This man should be wearing a superhero cape as my life was saved by his skillful hands and mind. I was diagnosed with Triple Negative Breast Cancer (highly aggressive and invasive) in November of `23. Akin Beckley, MD was the only breast oncology surgeon in the region that I came across who was willing to modify a tight surgical schedule to get me in before my prognosis would have worsened. I told him that I was "desperate" to have the tumor removed and kept getting the neoadjuvant chemo run-around from other practices as well as "We can see about getting you in January of `24". January?! He remarked that I am being REASONABLE in wanting immediate excision. His semi-soliloquy to himself: "I am going to help this woman" " and he did exactly that, operating on me before Christmas, with a superb bedside manner and a winning smile. He made sure my parents understood what was to happen during the double mastectomy and he even made an effort to speak with my 10-year-old about her… thoughts on the matter. He does not rush questions nor behave all pompous or authoritarian like an "MDeity". His character archetype is the same as my favorite former boss who also saved me, just differently, in 2002. If you want a doctor who does NOT treat you like another number, this man may be your surgeon. He is well-respected at the hospitals and he has great energy, plus precision in surgical technique. He sure knows how to facilitate smiles and singing from the hills by this formerly downtrodden cancer patient. Do your due diligence and place Dr Beckley at the top of your surgical investigation. Best of luck navigating your journey.

As an employee at BCH and a nurse, I have a 'bird's eye' view of surgeons and their work. I chose Akin Beckley for my surgical experience because I knew, first hand, how well his patients do post operatively. He has a great partner for any back-up needs. Having confidence in your provider and their team is key in recovery. I have that whole-heartedly for Dr. Beckley.

I have a huge appreciaton for Dr. Beckley and his skill and care of my health throughout the process. He explained everything and saved space for me to ask questons. He is an amazing physician and surgeon. Thank you, Dr. Beckley!

My husband and I both had procedures done by Dr. Beckley: hernia surgery and a gall bladder removal. Both procedures went extremely well, recovery from both was swift. Dr. Beckley made us feel very comfortable and confident in the process. Thank you Dr. Beckley!

Attitude and most importantly character is caring and nurturing Knowledgeable and motivated. I recommend Dr. Beckley without reservation.

I went in for Hernia surgery and Dr Beckley did a great job. Very courteous and professional. I would recommend him.

to be brief, this was a far better experience than the last hernia operation I had some twenty years ago

I am a surgeon who was visiting near Boulder when I discovered a concerning skin lesion. Dr. Beckley was able to see me the next day. He was knowledgable, articulate, and reassuring. He explained the options and possibilities. I chose for him to excise the lesion and he did so without delay, in the office, that day. He was at all times professional and skilled. He followed up with me by telephone when the path report was available. I would recommend him without reservation based upon my experience with him.

Dr Beckley explained my surgery and answered all my questions. He is both a skilled surgeon and compassionate person.

Dr.Beckley was amazing. I was more than pleased with my visit. He made me very comfortable during my procedure . Cares about his patients.
