Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Adkins is simply wonderful. Kind, caring, and incredibly smart are just a few of the words I could use to describe him . He explains things in a way that is easy to understand, and he is always staying up to date on current research. He never walks into the room without a smile and makes you feel at ease. He delivered my first baby and I never doubted once that I was in the best most capable hands. During my labor and delivery he was so positive and supportive and I couldn't have had a better experience because of that. He always asked me if I had any concerns and really listened when I gave an answer. He is by far the best doctor I've ever had. I will be hard pressed to find another doctor as great as Dr. Adkins.

Went in for a routine physical. No problems. But he ordered a bunch of blood tests that weren't required and weren't covered by insurance. Never had that happen before. Could not reach him. Wrote a letter. No response. Part of informed consent is cost to the patient. He clearly didn't care.

Phenomenal doctor. He's one of the smartest people I've ever met and is extraordinary. Ask him anything and he'll be able to provide you context and information regarding it along with the most current research about that topic. He is a living, breathing encyclopedia and TRULY listens to you as a patient. I could not recommend him more!

Didn't inform that my whole appointment was being live broadcast on video chat with the "stenographer". Had trouble getting basic prescriptions. No confidence in prognosis, and changed them in between visits. Couldn't or wouldn't provide print outs for referral information (Doctor Name, Address, etc) or prescription information that I had requested. Of course, their info was incorrect and took 2 weeks and half a dozen phone calls to correct.
