GOOD
She was personally understanding and cheerful
Love Dr. Collins to pieces. She took very great care and was very passionate for what I previously been through. She also informed me that if I ever needed or had a question not to hesitate to call even with me being 2 1/2 hrs away from there. I will highly recommend her!
Physician listened, made eye contact, very kind, thorough, answered my questions.

Excelente
Was sympathetic and quick to examine once able to have time
Dr. Collins is very personable as well as knowledgeable.
Knowledgeable
Dr. Collins had my records from 5 years ago and continued where we left off, knowledgeable, friendly and efficient.
I think, the Care Provider, listened to what I had to say, & was either soo confident with her surgery,upon I,that the issues I was speaking about, didn't relate,/ as most care providers, DON'T REALLY PROCESS THE ISSUE AT HAND,IN RELATION TO THE SURGERY/IES AT HAND,& STAGNATE WITH TEXTBOOK HYPOTHESIS, IN LIEU OF HOW ISSUE/S CAN CO~RELATE!!!
I totally connected with Dr. Collins. I love her kindness, compassion and personality.
She was fabulous! I felt heard
Dr. Collins was respectful, engaging, and forthright about the risks and benefits of my proposed treatment.
The doctor did an excellent job of explaining upcoming surgery and answering our questions.

I have liked Dr Colllins from the beginning of her career. I trust her. She is so positive & encouraging.
Had me shipped in an ambulance over an hour and a half away just to tell me when I got there that she was going to send me home with a partial blockage (& Tons of scar tissue in my intestines) And three hernias pushing and causing the blockage.

Dr Collins is exceptional'
Dr.Collins, made me feel comfortable from the moment she entered the exam room, by the way she addressed not only me-"the patient " but my husband. Our concerns/questions were addressed & we walked out feeling like my medical issue was throughly addressed.

Good: Helpful & encouraging
Didn't listen and difficult to understand, very fast talking
All excellent
Very attentive and did what was necessary to figure out what was going on. I particularly appreciated the fact that she said she didn't know what it was but she knew how to figure it out. It was nice to have someone be honest and not just try to tell you what they thought it was
The caregiver has given me the necessary care for my appointments
Professional, confident, discreet
Such a nice person and very thoughtful
Dr Collins is wonderful! She explains everything and answers all my questions.
