I have been seeing Dr. Beattie for many years now. I had 2 heart conditions that he monitored for many years. When the time came that necessitated open heart surgery his delivery of the news was professional and calming. He referred me to one of the top heart surgeons for my conditions. My surgery went well and I recovered nicely while following Dr. Beattie's post-op advice. I still continue to see Dr. Beattie and I attribute my excellent recovery in part to him!

Dr. Beattie?s care has been right on target but his office, staff and records are stuck in another era. There is no way to check labs or outside tests. No way to send an email or ask a question other than hoping you get through by phone as they don?t have enough lines or people to answer them. I don?t think their portal even meets regulation standards as used. So many calls can be avoided and records updated not just by them but co-treating HCPs. Anonymous - April 05, 2023

I have been receiving care from Dr. Beattie for many years now for a heart condition that will inevitably require surgery. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable, respectful, and witty. The time has come for my surgery and he recommended an excellent surgeon who is the best surgeon for my condition. I spoke to another cardiologist who practices in Boston and teaches at Harvard Medical and he coincidentally knows Dr. Beattie! He spoke very highly of Dr. Beattie and assured me that I was with the best! After surgery I will need to... read more

The service and diagnostics they did to me were driven by simple greed and incompetence. The diagnoses turned out to be wrong, unfortunately the damages were done. After I told them they were wrong instead of helping to correct their mistakes they insisted on trying to prevent me from getting the care I needed and the tests to conclusively prove that they were flat out wrong, but they knowingly did it, they know they are protected class. Please go to another qualified doctor to save your life

Dr. Beattie spends the time to fully explain his thoughts and recommendations for treatment in a way that is understandable. I always feel comfortable during visits and leave with the feeling that the doctor is carefully monitoring my health.

Dr. Beattie is a phenomenal physician. He listens and coordinates your plan of care realistically based on your history and expectations. As a younger patient, he is realistic about sustainable changes that can be made to improve your cardiac health. He coordinates with primary care physicians and truly cares about his patients. His staff is genuine and works hard to make appointments that meet your needs. A great practice for cardiac health.

Dr. Beattie is extremely knowledgeable. He takes time to explain whatever diagnosis he is giving. He takes time to listen. He is so kind with ALL his patients and will go the extra mile to make his patients comfortable and understand everything. He is truly the best cardiologist ever.
