Beamsley was my third attempt at finding a primary care doctor who didn't make me want to strangle…read morethem. I'm in my mid-20s and have some medical issues that require management by a hematologist; I'm also a graduate student and very invested in my own care. Previous primary care docs had treated me like an idiot and given me info that I strongly suspected was erroneous. I tried Beamsley on the advice of another grad student (who is also, like me, female), and I am so glad I did. During my first physical, I mentioned that friends of mine in Missouri had been required to discontinue Depo Provera (the birth control shot) because physicians there told them that no one should be on it for than five years. Beamsley, who is also an ob-gyn (I see someone else for that), told me he had never heard anything about such a limit, but he would check the literature. I sort of assumed that was the end of it, but two days later, HE CALLED ME AT HOME to tell me that he had looked into it and found nothing in the medical journals about such a limit. He has always taken the time to answer any questions I've had and he obviously respects my intelligence. He's a little socially awkward, but not obnoxious or insensitive. I rarely like doctors even when I have to deal with them, but I like Beamsley a lot, and I feel lucky to have found such a good PC.

My husband and I have been going to him for years and now we have a daughter who also sees him too! We are just very please with Dr. Beamsley. He is compassionate, friendly, he LISTENS and excellent bedside manners; meaning, when I was in the hospital after delivering my daughter, he would sit next to the bed to talk instead of standing. As for the earlier review about Dr. Beamsley issuing fake absences, I truly find that hard to believe. I hope that individual who made those accusations really look hard at themselves and realize he/she is really wrong about Dr. Beamsley.

August 2016 I just…read morecame back from a visit with Dr. Sheila Kredit and could not be more DISSATISFIED with my service from beginning to end. First off, I'm new to Madison and had to find a doctor that would see me in time in order to get a physical for teaching which consists of a physical fitness test and a tuberculin (TB) test. I had asked the receptionist on the phone that I needed a tuberculin test, but after Dr. Kredit saw me she said that needed to schedule an appointment a separate day. This is just the first complaint I have. Not only did they not listen they CHARGED me for a separate visit only to be told that I have good insurance and that I don't pay anything. Well, I pay a good ever increasing dollar for my healthcare and for them to tell me that insurance will cover just made me feel taken advantage of. Second, it may be everywhere nowadays but I had to fill out a non healthcare Obamacare questionnaire asking me about smoke detectors and if I own a gun and how many and where they are kept. I asked them to treat me like a person and not pry into my personal life. This wasn't received well. They told me unless they knew everything that it would be difficult helping me. Third, my visit took four and a half hours. That is just for a blood panel test (which actually took 3 minutes to draw my blood) and an intense questioning which I feel was punishment for not answering the Obamacare questionnaire. My appointment was at 8:15, which they were on time (my only positive experience) and I left the phlebotomist at 12:45. Quite awful to have to fast for 12 hours and then have a four in half hour appointment. Fourth, I was told that in order to get my physical statement, in order to teach, I needed to have a behavioral assessment. I told Dr. Sheila Kredit that the Illinois state law describes the physical statement to be an affirmation that I'm able to be physically fit an free of communicable disease. Dr. Sheila Kredit said her interpretation is that physical also means mental. I was flabbergasted. It's like saying up is down. They refused to sign my form after I went for my follow up to my second appointment for my tuberculin test came up negative. I'm physically fit and free of communicable diseases but they won't sign my form. The takeaway should be that: Wingra Family Medical Center is unethical by using my healthcare to extort money out of my insurance company; Dr. Sheila Kredit is inept at her job because she can't listen to her patient's needs. Do not go to Wingra Family Medical Center for your healthcare. You will be disappointed.

I had an amazing appointment with Dr. Sheila Kredit. She listened carefully to my concerns and was…read morehonest about what diagnostic tests were possible and reasonable. She carefully and sensitively listened to my symptoms. I was especially appreciative at how respectfully she treated me. Dr. Kredit is a resident at UW Madison and it is expected and anticipated that she touch base about treatment with her more experienced colleagues if necessary. As it turned out, it was not necessary. She diagnosed my medical issue and made appropriate recommendations as to addressing my issues. I am hopeful that Dr. Kredit stay in Madison where I am raising my children so that she can take care of my whole family. I love Dr. Kredit.

There…read moreare a few staff members that are great, however overall I do not feel that Patient Care and Experience are important to the staff at this location. Two years ago three members of our family were given a new diagnosis that required some navigating of the health care system (laws, paperwork, additional appts, etc.) The staff at this facility is often unhelpful in aiding us with questions or navigating our care plan. They do not help patients understand processes, guidelines or care schedule. We've had lost paperwork, missed medications, and more. I've mentioned before that I do not understand our care plan, but no one offers to help talk through it or kindly and patiently explain things to me. I'm often met with curt responses and just dead-end "good luck with that" kind of attitude. I feel that the staff finds me difficult. Im sure. But I'm a mother advocating for my child, and when my healthcare team is not helping me help my child then I will continue to advocate for them. I don't think it's too much to ask for people to tell us if things are coming up due. I understand the staff have limitations and guidelines to follow. However, if you're the type of person looking for healthcare team who are ON YOUR SIDE, who advocate and look out for you, then this is not the facility for you. I've called the patient complaint department before and unfortunately not had any resolution. Another message left today. We will see.

The whole staff is very nice, in fact, and the place is almost kind of cozy - sounds weird for a gyn office, but so it is. I'll spare the gory details, but I first came to her in tears of fear, due mostly to what ultimately was the incompetence of another provider, and she made me feel very quickly that she would figure out what was going on and that she would know what to do about it. I've sent friends to her with their own problems that were overlooked by other doctors and we all say the same thing: why can't they all be like her?! When I think about what I went through before I got to her, and how many women are going through the same things without a proper diagnosis by an attentive, competent provider, well, I wish every woman had a doctor like her. (She certainly was the first gynecologist to tell me that a pap/pelvic need not be uncomfortable - what?! - and that doctors routinely use a speculum that's too big.) I probably couldn't say enough good things about her. I just feel grateful I got to her and want other women to know about her.

It gives patients something to look forward to because she assures you that there are always more options. The MAs are really lovely too and have a great sense of humor. It's a truly beautiful facility too, Kind checkout staff, decent billing experiences. Only recommendation is to get on the cancelation list because they are an in-demand clinic. The wait can be 6 months but if you're determined in calling or answering cancelation notices, I've gotten appointments moved up by 4-5 months. They're never openly annoyed with my calls!

The front office staff and doctors talk at you like you've just wasted their time and love to contradict your own experience or dismiss you outright. Rude and discouraging. And then, when you do find a provider you like she leaves (no fault to her for that) but as a patient at the clinic you have to go back on the "waiting list" because the other providers aren't taking "new patients"....even when you aren't a new patient to the clinic. I wanted to like this place, I wanted the small clinic feel where I thought it would be warm and welcoming, not the busy rushed atmosphere of the large mega clinics in the area. I tried for almost 10 years; Not worth it. As I get older I am going to need a place that listens to me and treats me politely. Unless they overhaul the staff I don't see that happening here so I'm doing something I should have done years ago. Leave.
