Testimonials
Here are testimonials from patients we’ve had the privilege to serve:
“One of the finest doctors I have met in my 74 years on this rock. Excellent bedside manner and never in a rush. Always wants to know if you have any questions. Fabulous Surgeon. Explains everything in layman’s terms. Wouldn’t go anywhere else. His partner Dr Beckley is also fantastic. I highly recommend either of them if your looking for a exceptional Surgeon.”
“I had a lipoma near my right shoulder blade. Dr. Fox examined it with an ultrasound to determine its exact location and how to remove it. The lipoma was located under my muscle, which made it a bit more challenging to remove. Dr. Fox assured me that he could remove it without any issues. The operation itself went very smoothly and was short. Dr. Fox did a terrific job; he removed the entire lipoma and stitched me up without leaving a big scar. My recovery was very fast. I also want to recommend the facility where Dr. Fox works, Alpine Surgical in Boulder. The nurses, the equipment, the administrative staff, and all the electronic paperwork were top-notch.”
“I recently had the honor and privilege of treatment by Dr. Akin Beckley at Alpine Surgical. His ability to diagnose and treat a severe medical condition with superior knowledge and ability was outstanding. He is a brilliant physician combined with excellent communication skills. The entire office staff convey such a high quality of ability and make the entire experience five Star platinum”

“Dr. Fox is an absolutely amazing surgeon! I went to him several years ago for a breast lumpectomy and he did such a wonderful job at removing all the atypical cells, and he didn’t even leave a scar. His care is incredible! Recently, I had more imaging done, and he called me personally to explain the results and address any concerns. I will only go to Dr. Fox for any new surgery I may need. I trust his expert opinion and know that I am in safe hands. I highly recommend him!”

“We saw Dr. Beckley to address a small bump above my daughter’s eye. Dr. Beckley very quickly made us feel comfortable and welcome to be there. More importantly, was that he spoke very directly and intentionally to my daughter (11) instead of simply talking “around” her to me. He asked her specific questions, and also allowed for her to ask her own questions. He also sought her approval of the plan for her treatment – making her genuinely feel like she had a say in what the plan would be (which was going to possibly leave a scar – and he allowed for her to understand the options for how to approach her treatment).
Our experience with Dr. Beckley was one of the most positive short-term doctor experiences our family has had. I would readily welcome future opportunities to work with Dr. Beckley (as long as it didn’t have to involve an injury or illness for a family member!) He seemed to be an extremely competent doctor, and he was very personable and enjoyable to visit with as well. I would highly recommend Dr. Beckley and would definitely give him a 5-star rating.
Thank you so much!”

“I can’t thank you enough for how straight-forward and honest you were with me throughout my diagnosis and how patient and compassionate you’ve been throughout my treatment. It’s meant all the world to me. You are stellar at returning phone calls which, as a patient, is one of the hardest parts of this process. You’ve been very accommodating with your time on the weekends…. Humor is always a good thing… I think it’s rare to find such a caring and understanding team of outstanding doctors all under one roof.”
