Mark Bessette has been my Dr for over 20 yrs and has always been honest, patient, kind and even warm and friendly! His relationship with his healing work is ethical, knowledge based and encompasses standard MD as well as alternative and more natural pathways. I have only high praise for him and will miss him as he moves away from Tucson.

Dr. Bessette has been my (and our) family doctor for 25 years. He always takes time to listen, is flexible in diagnostic approaches, and always explains thoroughly.

Dr. Bessette has been my Primary Care doctor for years. The word “care” in Primary Care embodies everything about Dr. Bessette. He really cares and as a long-time patient, I appreciate his knowledge, knowledge and manner very much.

Dr. Bessette has been my trusted primary care physician for many years. I think so highly of him that I recommended him to my elderly Mother and she is now receiving excellent care from him, as well.

Dr Bessette is a good doctor.some of his staff really sucks they are not that good. I am a little disappointed he can't solve some of my medical issues in some of the other reviews, they brag about his knowledge I am sure they are right. I have a lot of complicated issues that are hard to solve. I would still recommend him he is a very professional doctor. As for distancing in the waiting room, you don't have to worry about it. I asked Dr Bessette about that and he said people with the symptoms or people that are very sick, they have them waiting on another area for their appointments

My experience with doctor visit has been excellent. Very easy to talk to, willing to listen to my complaints and understand them from my view, willing to order necessary labs and prescriptions, very thorough and careful in his medical approach and recommendations.Overall a pleasure to have as my personal physician. Office staff is also very organized and helpful as well. So glad I found this group with Humana here in Tucson back in June of 2019.
