I have a "complex" medical history. Dr. Beesley takes the time to listen, understand, and explain. He is knowledgeable and has an excellent bedside manner. He is one of the few doctors I trust.

Kara Beasley at Boulder NeroSurgical and Spinal Associates sincerely saved my life. Things were very immediate in my situation and answers were required right away. Their team of professionals were able to address the situation with the urgency that was required to bring balance into my brain. Surgery was required, which was obviously nerve wracking. However, their clarity and concise communication brought comfort to my upcoming procedure. Their team was also also available to schedule the surge

I have been a patient of Dr. Beesley for 13 years. Have never had any problems with him. He answers all your questions and if he doesn't have the answer he finds it for you.

He has been my Dr. for over 10 year and has never given up on finding the best treatment for me. I've seen a lot of doctors over the years and none cared as much as he has at what is best for me.
