My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
With over 25 years of experience practicing internal medicine in Northwest Arkansas, I have developed relationships with many fine specialists to help assist us with your individual care. I want to create a medical experience centered around the patient. I have found that stronger doctor-patient relationships lead to better outcomes and patient satisfaction.
My specific areas of interest are cardiovascular health, prevention and wellness medicine, prevention of cancer and men’s and women’s health.

I have been with Dr. Benson since 1994 and decided to stay with him when he joined MDVIP. He is truly a very caring physician, takes time to listen to you instead of hurrying you out of his office and has excellent staff. I would rate him well above a 5.
