Erinn E. Beagin, MD

on more than one occasion I called Dr. Beagin for one ailment or another, she diagnosis something that includes a further visit by someone else. This happened with me feeling terrible. I call her and she talks with me and says come and see me right away. It turns out I have Lyme's. She sends me to Princeton Hospital but they cant see me right away. I call Dr. Beagin and let her know. Five minutes later her office calls and says they'll see me right away!
More recently she recommended I see a sleep specialist for severe sleep apnea. That office doesn't have an opening for 3 months. I let Dr. Beagin know. An hour later they somehow found me an appointment three days out.
She clearly advocates for her patients!!!

Dr Beagin is a careful practitioner who follows her patients closely. She has a cheerful manner and is uplifting as a person. However she’s actually very observant and conscientious. She once insisted on my having several tick-borne illness tests after I was bitten by ticks in Virginia and was dizzy sometimes. By the time I had my physical the dizziness was much better, so I wasn’t concerned and didn’t want the tests. After she insisted, I had the recommended blood tests and it turned out I had Rocky Mountain spotted tick fever, which can be fatal if not caught quickly. The next year I was out of town in Virginia and got another bite for which she prescribed an antibiotic because she suspected Lyme—I sent her a picture of that odd rash which I snapped on my cell phone. Recently she diagnosed my sore and swollen ankle as a vascular issue. It seemed to me to be an injury and probably bone-related, but she said to follow it up with a vascular surgeon. Indeed I had a blocked vein. I feel as if she saved my life a couple of times just by being cautious and following things up. She’s a very smart doctor but a very humble and friendly person with a great sense of humor. I love having her as my physician; she has gone out of her way to make my life easier by allowing me do blood tests prescribed by my cardiologist at her office when I’m in town, because it’s otherwise hard for me to schedule these tests. She’s very understanding about my travel schedule. Overall Dr Beagin is a blessing and so is her staff.

One of the best decisions I made in my life was retaining Dr. Erinn Beagin as my primary physician. Not only is she one of the finest professionals I have ever know, but she is such a great human being. I look forward to my visits with her. It is like visiting a best friend who you adore, can trust, confide in and know that she "has your back" not only for your health and wellness but for your life. There are numerous occasions that come to mind when I think of why she is so special, but I will always remember the morning of Sunday, December 3, 2023 preparing to go to a church service when I experienced an excruciating pain and cough. Although a Sunday morning and not wanting to disturb her, I remembered she always told me, " I am here if you need me." I called her office immediately and she returned my call in less than 10 minutes. Although I was frightened and in pain, her calm voice on the phone provided me much comfort and reassurance that I did the right thing in calling her. She then proceeded to assess the situation, listened intently, offered me guidance and specific measures to take and as they say,"the rest is history". She monitored my health the entire day, and once she recognized the situation was deteriorating, she strongly advised I go to the hospital. I was admitted soon thereafter to the hospital where I was diagnosed with pneumonia. She remained in contact with me, and the team of doctors the entire time I was in the hospital and throughout my recovery.

As a Broadway veteran, professional tap dancer, and choreographer, Dr. Beagin understands what I do, appreciates the importance of my physical well being especially as a performing artist, my lifestyle and my great joy of dance. She is interested in the wellness of my life and all that is uniquely me. She is an integral part of my life, a blessing and a life saver. Dr. Beagin keeps me on my feet!

I simply love Dr. Beagin‘s care. Regardless of whether I’m on her schedule or not, I can always get a question answered within a few hours. During our regular appointments, she takes the time to clearly explain everything to me. Her bedside matter is amazing.

But the story that stands out was when I was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease by a local neurologist. This neurologist is technically competent, but really poor at making the patient feel comfortable with the diagnosis. When Dr. Beagin learned of this diagnosis, she called my phone and spent at least 30 minutes with my wife and myself, talking through the diagnosis and the implications. I don’t know how else I would’ve gotten comfortable with my diagnosis.

I have 100% trust in her assessment of my health and associated recommendations. I hope I never have to switch physicians, but if I did, I’ll be deeply disappointed. Dr. Beagin is simply the best.
