Dr. Westerhausen literally scoffed at all of my questions and didn't explain things well. Showed no compassion and provided no useful information.

The one star reviews say what was my expience.
My doctor for 22 years we have wonderful repoire and competence is high he has a dry wit and always explained what was going on. I find these negative reviews to be not the person I know. I have trusted this man with my life for almost 1/4 of a century
Several years ago after going through three different doctors at Northpointe I finally ended up with Dr. Westerhausen. It was the best thing that happened to me. I have been going to him since2004 I attribute still being here at age 83 to his care and treatment. He is no nonsense probably due to being very busy with his patients. Him leaving Beacon is a huge loss for me and the cardiology department.
Dr. Westerhausen may not have the best beside manner, but I'm not going to a tea party with him! This man knows the heart and explains what is happening. When new medications are added or taken away he completely explains the reasoning. Also, the doctor has nothing to do with the billing process in most facilities nor do they force DNR's on patients! Some of the other reviews here are just ridiculous!
FANTASTIC. I have read the reviews and must say i never met the person they describe.DR.W. IS THE BEST
I only had a brief interaction with Dr. Westerhausen (thank goodness). He had no bedside manor whatsoever. By far the rudest physician I have ever talked to especially considering the circumstances. I was in extreme distress. He made me feel like I was an inconvenience for seeking help. If you feel like your patient is an inconvenience, maybe you should consider another career.
My mom was to have fluids taken off her lungs and have draining ports installed. Dr. W talked my mom into signing a DNR paper but my mom didn't want to be on life support; she wanted other efforts made. When the nurse called to get the order in, he yelled at the nurse, then yelled at me because he didn't feel that was the right thing for my mm to do, even though it was her wish. He dropped my mom as a patient because he didn't get his way. Now she can't have any NorthCentral Card Group doc.`
Run as fast as you can from this doctor. He is the most heartless, which I find ironic, person I have met. He will talk down to you and become irritated by your questions. I will be telling everyone that I know about how much pain he has caused my family in a time when caring words and explanations would go a long way in helping us except the Inevitable. Beacon you are better then this doctor!
