Premier Surgical Cleveland is proud to present the newest member of our physician team – Dr. Shannon Beierle.
Dr. Beierle is a general surgeon. She treats a variety of conditions, from hernia to cancer.
Let’s get to know her more.
What’s your background?
“After graduating from Biometric Engineering at Texas A&M, I went to Texas Tech University for my medical degree. I completed my residency at Knoxville, Tennessee at the University of Tennessee and that’s how I fell in love with East Tennessee and decided to stay.”
Do you have a specialty or is there any area you enjoyed doing?
“I really enjoyed working with cancer patients, especially women. As a wife and mom, I feel like I can connect to them.”
What’s your philosophy in taking care of patients?
“Surgery is just one part of their whole treatment plan. I want to know my patients and where they’re coming from. I want to know their emotional, nutritional state so I can help them get the best possible outcome.
I’m a Christian so if they want to pray before surgery, I can pray with them.
What drew you to Premier Surgical Cleveland?
“I was looking for something where I can be a surgeon and a mom. I was also looking for a community and so when I was interviewing for Cleveland, I felt that it suits me.
Cleveland definitely has a small-town feel. People are very friendly and faith-oriented. That’s a big thing for me.”
