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.

Always kind, efficient, thorough & informative.

Unfortunately, I never saw Dr. Rinker. I made my appointment over the phone, gave them all my insurance information and answered all their questions. Then I waited over a month for my appointment only to be told at the front desk they don't take my insurance. I could not believe the receptionist made it sound like it was my fault. Now I have to wait two more months for a new patient visit at another doctors office. Doctor may be good, but staff is terrible!

She did listen to my skin issues but had no idea how to treat it or valid recommendations. "Interesting, looks normal but isn't to the touch... With this we just don't know. It is what it is" she said. With my skin issues having started over 6 months not healing but progressively getting worse and new symptoms arising telling me to try a new lotions after already having tried that there should've been more of an effort to help get to the route of the issue. She had me out of her office in less than 2 minutes after having driven over an hour to get to her and also having my appointment pushed back 4 hours because her office double booked and waiting in the lobby for additional 45minutes past the rescheduled appointment time. I do not recommend her unless you just want to get your cortisone prescription refilled which her office also failed to send to the pharmacy. Highly do not recommend. You better of with the PAs and nurse practioners.

Dr. Rinker is always knowledgeable and friendly. I completely trust her with every inch of my skin. Even though she moved to an office farther away, the trip is still worth it. I always get free samples of skin care products st each visit also.
