Patient Reviews
Jan 19, 2023
Dr. Atkins is smart, funny, empathetic, kind, up-to-date, and an overall well-rounded doctor. I've been through many doctors and he's the only one who doesn't just sit there counting the money signs tick by. Not sure what happened with the other reviewers but personally he has been the best and I disagree with the comment about being bad with POC/ hardships as he has been extremely accommodating and has gone out of his way to bridge the gap between the background which he might be used to seeing or working with and mine. If you're looking for someone who actually seems to enjoy their work, cares deeply about caring, and really tries his best to get you results, here he is. His personality is very caring, smart, and a little dark humored- necessary in this line of work I'd say. Fantastic human being and a pleasure to work with. Never felt judged, he asks clear questions and makes the long journey worthwhile. tldr: Sure, I'm not cured, but I put down the gun. 10/10 best doctor ever :)
