5.0 star star star star starGynecological visits can be awkward. Truthfully, nobody looks forward to it. Heaven forbid you are having an issue that you need to ask about. I would reccomend Dr.Beall because she has seen it all. She makes me feel comfortable and she's easy to talk to. She has always treated me respectfully and given me the best care. I no longer dread going in for any reason. That's why I would recommend her to everyone. 100% (....I never fill out surveys, so this says a lot).

0.0 star_border star_border star_border star_border star_borderI’ll will not see Dr. Beall again. I did not have a very good experience with her. I believe that I could have received more empathy for what needed to be discussed instead of the dismissive attitude she had.

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderI felt that I was rushed through the appointment. It was as if she had better things to do and/or patients to see. She knew the concern that I wanted to talk about and she suggested surgery. She responded (paraphrased) "I'm a surgeon I'm known for my surgery." and I told her that I prefer not to go down that route, that I knew of a another surgical procedure that was less invasive and at this point she made no effort to ask me what the surgery was. I was not questioning her surgery abilities. Also, I thought she got a bit snarky with me when she told me that she would set up a follow-up appointment via telehealth within "X" amount weeks to talk about a test that needed to be done that was discussed. I told her that I needed "X" more time for said appointment. She responded (paraphrased) "Well, I don't know how busy you are." I felt if has asked me first what my time frame was this discussion would not have happened. Overall, I was not impressed.

5.0 star star star star starI’ve gone to her for a long time. Since Women to Women became a NWM site, the “personal care†feeling has ended. It’s all about the numbers of patients, the $ and how quickly can a patient be seen.

5.0 star star star star starDr. Beall is the absolute best. Honestly I’ve never ever had a dr care as much as she does, listen as well as she does, and a actually include me in the decision making process. She’s always answering my questions and making sure I’m good with our plan!

5.0 star star star star starNot only is Dr. Beall a great doctor who I have now been seeing since I was just 15 years old, she also is very personable and makes sure I am comfortable each visit. She answers all my questions with clarity and detail so I know what’s going on at all times. I will be going to Dr. Beall for as long as I possibly can and refuse to see anyone else!

5.0 star star star star starDr. Beall is knowledgeable, honest, and direct. I appreciate that she's to the point and honest with her patients. She takes time to answer questions and explain things thoroughly. When I had an emergency situation with my pregnancy, she was calm and put me at ease.

5.0 star star star star starI first met Dr. Beall in the delivery room. I was impressed by her bedside manner and the attention she devoted to me, my husband and then finally our baby girl. That first impression brought me to her office for my annual exam. She is very genuine, easy talk to and I feel as though she is truly listening to what my concerns are. Looking forward to calling her my regular!

0.0 star_border star_border star_border star_border star_borderShe told me that my boyfriend would cheat on me, it was just a matter of time. She has shamed me for why I was there and made me feel gross and embarrassed. It felt like there were way too many personal opinions going into what she was saying and it made me feel very uncomfortable and when I left I cried in the car. I will never see her again.

5.0 star star star star starIt is important to feel comfortable with your gynecologist-Dr. Beall does not rush, always listens, & actually chats about family & makes you feel at ease. That makes the exam much more tolerable!

2.0 star star star_border star_border star_borderShe gives the impression that she is in a rush. Beall seems competent as a surgeon, but has been dismissive of my pain levels. Her in office bedside manner is lacking. She conducts exams and treatments as if I’m just a bio mechanical entity without feelings.

External Professional Relationships
Pharmaceutical, device, and biotechnology companies frequently collaborate with basic scientists and physicians within an academic medical center to help advance science and improve patient care. These relationships are important in achieving scientific breakthroughs and in establishing the effectiveness and safety of promising new therapies. In order to assure objectivity in clinical research and patient care, the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (Feinberg), Northwestern Memorial HealthCare, Children's Hospital of Chicago Medical Center, and the Shirley Ryan AbilityLab have adopted integrity policies that require research and clinical faculty (in full-time, part-time, and unpaid/voluntary categories) to report compensated and uncompensated external industry relationships. Patients are encouraged to discuss these disclosures with their physician as well as to inquire as to how these relationships are overseen by Feinberg.
