May 30, 2018Linh W.Verified patient
Dr Besinger's office is very old school but that gave me confidence that he has been practicing for a very long time. He really listened to my situation and took into consideration my own thoughts and opinions and didn't dismiss me. It was easy to communicate with him and I got what I needed out of the appointment. Super easy to book with too, he had multiple openings for the week and I even managed to book one for a same day appointment
December 9, 2025Leah D.Verified patient
I was late. I was a bad patient. Sorry, doctor. The doctor was very quick to look at my issue and tell me to keep doing what I was doing. He was not proactive in suggesting longterm ways to reduce the risk of recurrence of my issue.

Dr. Bensinger quickly diagnosed my issue and had me on the mend right away. He was prompt, kind, and asked all the right questions.
