She listens carefully to the patient and shares her thoughts on what she thinks is going on and what the best options are to deal with it. I've been seeing her for 18 years and think she is one of the best Doctors I've ever seen. I don't know if she is accepting new patients ( she's very well liked) - but if she is - consider yourself very lucky to get in and see her.

My entire family has been long time patients of Br. Benedict…read more Two stars because he's an amazing provider, however the front desk staff, billing, and scheduling has ALWAYS been terrible. Now with the Kadlec takeover, if you can believe it, they're EVEN WORSE. Forcing patients to schedule annual exams 1-2 years in advance is ridiculous. Putting someone on hold for 30 minutes with an automated message telling them they are last in a que of 50 people is absurd.

At my 1st appt to establish care, he looks over my previous chart and promptly says he's eliminating all unnecessary meds, no antidepressants, (it was verified 16 yrs ago I would benefit from a low dosage) no thyroid Rx (I have no thyroid as it was removed 2001) I was not on any opiates or anxiety meds so no issue or attitude there. Nothing. Blood tests. Yes, that's the norm but even after I explained my Rx protocols had changed my life/were necessary he didn't budge. He's just irrelevant as a physician. I researched better & found a primary w/out narcissistic tendencies.
