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. Brinker and his staff have been my doctor since moving to Florida in the summer of 2018 and I have been very pleased with all aspects of my health care. Having Type II Diabetes, I visit the office 4 times/year and I've always had prompt and friendly service. They are very accommodating when changing my prescription provider. At the end of each visit, I'm provided a complete record of the results.

Terrible doctor. Doesn't care at all about patients. Also very dishonest billing practices. Requires the scheduling of multiple different appointments when one is appropriate in order to increase billing to insurance.

Dr Brinker is the best doctor I have ever been associated with. He is not like most doctors, he actually cares about his patients. He is very knowledgeable, gives great advice and will answer all your questions. He explains his plans in great detail and he will listen to your concerns. I would recommend Dr Brinker to anyone who wants a quality doctor with a great attitude and compassion for his patients.
