Beena is very attentive and listens to I'd say every word a patient says. Notes tell all LOL but no, truthfully I love her and feel very comfortable being open and totally forth coming with Beena. As long as she stays in Arizona I will follow her. As a senior I have lost a lot of my doctors and or through clinic changes, so NO I would not be a happy camper if I could not see her.

She is NOT a doctor as is required in the office as required by law. I place the criticism for this not with zBeena, but with Optum for driving physicians from the practice. This in a pattern of practice for several years.

She was kind and listened and concluded my symptoms were due to severe allergies. She referred me to an ENT doc without explaining why. He asked me why she’d referred me as well. Further - the medications she prescribed have done very little to stop my symptoms.

I drove 45minutes to see her. She is kind, thorough, and a wonderful provider. I stay with Optum because of her. Her medical assistant, Ty? was so kind and friendly. I really enjoyed working with her as well.

Beena gave me her undivided attention. Beena's grasp of medicine extended well beyond treating respiratory problems. I have Myasthenia Gravis and she was very helpful to be sure medications would not interfere with my MG treatment. I very much appreciated the printed patient summary.

I have received various professional signals from Beena regarding my questions. We initially got off on a rocky start and have been able to regroup and we both have an understanding and respect for each other. I think it just took awhile to earn each other's trust.
