Patient Reviews

Aug 08, 2023

I have been a patient of Dr Sara Pinkel for 17 years!! I am asymptomatic, which makes diagnosis very difficult. Dr Pinkel has diagnosed my health issues in timely manner so I am alive today. She cares for each of her patients whether she just started assisting them with their medical needs or a long time. She is a great rarity of a fantastic doctor!
