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.

Dr. Pinkert is the smart guy in the room, and a true problem solver with a keen insight into the human psyche.

Practice is a JOKE. Make "appt" times and have you waiting for hours after your supposed "time" They are the most uncompassionate people I have ever met, except for the front desk ladies. THEY ARE GREAT, HAVE TO GET THAT OUT THERE!!! The DR. booted me from the clinic over some B.S. technicality. The DR and his loser tough guy assistant don't remember the specific conversations about this particular technicality and then booted me with no notice or chance to taper off medication. HORRIBLE!!!
