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.

Healthcare yes politics no
I liked Dr. Hilton I had many questions about my stroke migraines and other things the only thing that I didn’t like was he spoke about was politics… politics and health care doesn’t mix but in all honesty he is super caring and I love how much time he spent talking about my diagnosis and the staff is always super friendly

Dr Hinton is a wonderful doctor. Professional, caring, smart, intuitive, taking time to explain and inform you what you need to know about your issue. He has meant so much to me because he know what he is talking about. He’s honest and respectful. I could not have chosen a better doctor and am so grateful he is my doctor.

This has been the worst experience I have ever had with a doctor. I was referred to him and it took 4 months to get in. He seemed ok but called the next day after I had a problem with my medicine with no return call. I kept calling for a month and they finally said don’t take that medicine and prescribed a new one and I had a bad reaction to that medicine too. I don’t think I will be calling to say anything and just try another dr, and like someone else said maybe another state. I have had problems since moving to Alabama this is ridiculous and actually life threatening after reading other reviews. I have no clue how this dr could be that busy or is it really because he is playing golf 4 days a week? This is your health please reconsider this dr.

Don't expect help from him or staff. I have suffered for years with seizures. And he discriminated against me for my disability during the pandemic he even told he not to come out. Because I'm high risk lung damaged. Went to my appointment that took 5 months to get. Nurse came to waiting room told me he refuses to see me. Now I CANNOT see any of my Dr.s affiliated with infirmary... Running out of life threatening medicine that I can't stop. With no notice from Hinton. Now looks like I'm going to go to another state

I felt stupid for going and like I basically wasted my time. Waited for an hour in the exam room too. Took two months for appointment. After he said he wanted to see me in May. When I got to appointment desk the earliest appointment was the end of July!

When my husband was very ill Dr Hinton told us he should have a feeding tube.He had gone the hospital up walking and eating, but he had been unaware of anything for several days, because he had a seizure. Nurses had told us he may be asleep because of meds. We ask if he could be eased off the meds so that we could tell the real condition he was in. He said Do you want to take over this case, if you do you can have it because its just a job to me. Hospital said we had to retaine him any way.

After seeing Dr. Hinton, my life has changed! He listens to everything I have to say and is so well versed in his medical knowledge, he knows the best treatment and it is always the best route for me. He has never steered me in the wrong direction. I don't know where I would be without him. Since moving to his new location, wait times are better than ever and he always spends the appropriate amount of time with you. You never feel rushed out of the appointment. He's always prepared & a great Dr.
