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.

If there was a minus sign I would give him -1!!!
Worst doctor ever!!! He remembered me from 2yrs ago and treated me with such heartless feeling!! I will call Medicare for he was trying to rush me out and only spoke to him for less then 5min!!! Horrible old guy with no compassion for patients.

This doctor is horrible. He doesn’t even deserve the one star that I gave him. He treated me and my daughter horribly. I would never want anyone to go to him. He’s rude and doesn’t even spend enough time with you to treat you as a doctor should. He broke the Hippa law(a patient privacy right), he openly discussed information about another patient in front of us. He was arrogant and impatienct

Dr. Hinson was fine in person, and I felt treated me well for the 15-20 mins he spent with me. But then I received a bill for $1700, which the paperwork said would be discounted to $1200 if I paid right away as a courtesy because I had no insurance. I called and said I do, in fact, have insurance. So they said to throw away that bill and they would go through the insurance. Weeks later, I find out they billed my insurance the $1700 (not the $1200) and I now owe $1450 of that. For 15-min consult.
