Dec 17, 2024
Have had a breathing problem most of my 72 years and all other drs treated as asthma and it never worked. Saw Dr Hinkle and did pulmonary test same day. He Dx me with Sigh syndrome that can be treated with medication. It worked and my breathing is back, can breathe without gasping for air. He is awesome and I highly recommend him.
