Dr, Beach clearly focuses on the patient & the patient's health. He listens, processes and gives honest customized advice. He is up to date and analytical about medicine, including advances and controversies. He is a superb physician. A word, too, about his Nurse, Cathy, who is a perfect fit for Dr....

I saw Dr. Lenchner for a follow-up visit after he adjusted my meds. He was helpful and provided excellent care! I feel much better now and with the additional resources Dr. Lenchner shared, I look forward to maintaining control of my symptoms.
