I think Dr. Becher is the best. I feel like I lucked out that he was available when I was in the ER and was able to do my surgery. He did a great job and his follow-up has been excellent.

Dr. Becher addressed 2 additional problems, issues the hospital missed during the patient's ICU stay after an accident. He took additional x-rays, answered all our questions, and treated us like people. He was refreshingly transparent in every way. He did nothing to justify needing to wash his hands on entry to the room, and he may well have disinfected his hands prior to entry and upon exit, which we would not have seen. The facility was clean & the physician knew his stuff. We have NO complaints, only praise for the practice.

I appreciate Dr Becher and his staff. I have never had orthopedic surgery before so really didn't know what to expect. It is a long recovery time. When I had questions Dr Becher or his MA, Alicia were prompt in responding to my questions. I followed all instructions as advised and had a good outcome. Thank you for the care and good work. I totally would recommend Dr Becher and this practice.

I've been very disappointed with my experience at this orthopedic doctor. I was told I would need surgery and because of my age, they will not do it. They thought I was there for an elbow for a full 12 weeks ago, when it was, in fact, a wrist, they mistakenly took a bunch of X-rays of my elbow and then I had to go back in because that was a mistake, it was supposed to be my wrist. Just altogether, no confidence at all in this practice.
