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.

The staff and doctor were great listening and answering whatever questions I had. The doctor gave me choices on kinds of treatments I could do. The whole appointment was excellent!

There is no better choice than Dr Wingate!!
Never underestimate the difference you make and how much all of you are appreciated! From the concerned receptionist, to the nurses and PA’s to the CNP’s when you walk through the lobby to see your doctor. I have been touched with raw empathy and understanding— what a fine group of people and doctors at Orthopedic Institute!!

Dr. Wingate listened to what I told him. MRI today
He was very thorough on what steps I need to take. Scheduled an MRI after initial findings from X-rays. I feel taken care of and glad I was directed to him.

Excellent physician
I had my six week post-op appointment with Dr. Wingate this morning and I could not be more grateful for his care and dedication Dr Wingate knew that I have been struggling with pain, and assured me that we will get to the bottom of it, ordering a MRI to investigate further. He truly listens and proves that he cares about his patients. I am blessed to have Dr Wingate as my spinal orthopedic specialist and have full confidence that he will do everything in his power to help me recover. Thank you with all my heart Dr Wingate. I pray you realize how appreciated you are.

I know he was busy but you could not tell it.
He told me I had options for my stenosis and explained them all very well. He said it would have to be my decision as to which one I would need in the future. He is not a doctor who says I need an operation right away. He gave me some options to try first which seemed like a good idea. Very pleasant and accommodating.

We love Dr Wingate
We came to Orthopedic Institute from another health system after a scoliosis diagnosis for my child. Dr Wingate did a fantastic job of explaining the medical terms, my child's prognosis, and answering all our questions that were left unanswered after our diagnosis. We 'broke up with' our first doctor, and will be returning to OI for followup and treatment.
