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 needles were very painful. Dr. Collins told me what to expect but I didn't know it would be that painful.

The nurse was very friendly and cheerful. I dread coming to the Froedtert facility. The nurse had me laughing and relaxed before Dr. Collins came in for my appointment. Dr. Collins is also a very knowledgeable doctor. He makes it a point to remember discussions from my previous appointment and to update me on any ongoing clinical trials.

Awful. Ignorant, uncaring. The process to be taken seriously was painstaking and draining. Very set in ways and unwilling to listen or look for something unusual or new-goes right from the textbook without any innovative ideas or concepts. Outdated. I'd recommend any neurologist except this one.

He seemed agitated from the minute he walked in the room. Was very rude to his own staff. Because I did not know text book terms for my conditions or symptoms this seemed to frustrat and agitate him to the piont of anger.

After 10 years in MDA clinic Dr. Collins informed me I was no longer going to be seen in MDA clinic. My neurologist had moved on, and after reviewing my files, he decided the MDA was a bad fit for me. I feel he should have at least taken the time to interview me, and examine me before making this ill-informed decision. Also, I was seen by another neurologist in the MDA who insisted I have another emg done at the cost of over a thousand dollars. Having had this test done b/f, why again?
