Dr. Zachary Jenkins, MD

This Dr. spent 10 to 15 minutes and instead of transferring me to a hospital that could provide the necessary care he said that there was nothing they could do and had the ambulance take me back home where I was chair bound, unable to get up for almost 6 days before my husband could schedule an ambulance to transport me to Vanderbilt University Medical Center where I underwent more than 5 hours of surgery to remove my broken femur, which required replacement of my hip. He is by all means the absolute Worst Dr I’ve ever seen. If he’s working in the ER demand a patient advocate and get sent somewhere else!!

I think this doctor is unprofessional,terrible bedside manner. He misses too many things. So much so that it is harmful for the patient.

Dr Jenkins saw my husband in the ER. He was attentive, asking probing questions about my husband’s recent health episode, reporting thatEKG was normal & no physical exam issues.Shortly, he was back with the report that the blood works& chest xray were also normal. He discharged my husband with instructions to make sure to alert his primary care physician of the episode & ER visit. He stressed that if the issue returns, seek medical attention again.Overall, we were pleased with Dr. Jenkins attention & care.

I spent seven hours in the ER for a finger injury. I saw this doctor for a grand total of maybe 20 minutes, and yet somehow he billed me 1400 dollars for his time. That's an effective rate of 4200 per hour. Absurd.
