About Me

I’m a primary care physician who takes a comprehensive, whole-person approach to care. I serve as a care manager and coordinator for my patients, helping them focus on prevention and wellness.

I strive to build personal connections and foster long-term relationships with patients, their families and caregivers. I believe in shared decision-making and encourage each patient to actively engage in their own health care.

In addition to general primary care, I offer specialized procedures such as joint aspirations, joint injections, and skin lesion biopsies.

  • July 11, 2026
    Dr.Beatty is a gem. He always answers questions with easily understandable wording, is always knowledgeable about anything I've ever asked him, is efficient. I've never seen him in a bad mood and I find it extraordinary he has students with him all the time. When I see him I walk out with all my questions answered. I have an extremely difficult disease that not many doctors have patience with, diagnosing, treating and working with the patient. He listens (so important) and we work out a treatment program together.
  • June 22, 2026
    I think Dr. Beatty does a super job. I think about all the personnel having to listen to and deal with peoples' problems all day long, every day and only marvel at their patience and endurance. Life has enough problems without your personnel having to listen to and deal with others' problems, even if it is their job. Keep up the good work, everybody!
