Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 09/30/2024, Dr. Collins has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
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
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.
Dr Collins was AWESOME!!!! As I said I was quite nervous at 1st but as soon as she walked in the room & introduced herself I felt at ease! She has a PRESENCE about her that made me feel I could talk to her about ANYTHING! She's so down to earth yet very professional and you can tell she's serious about what she does! She explained to me, the best she could, what the surgery may entail and the possible complications IF I don't do MY PART afterwards! I feel comfortable with her doing the surgery & believe she will do EVERYTHING she possibly can to make sure It a success! I feel blessed that I was sent to her! She's probably the "coolest" surgeon I've ever met!!! Not cocky yet confident.
Good
To the point and good listener
DrCollins and her nurse were both excellent
Good
Thank you.
I liked her the minute she walked in. She made me feel very comfortable and explained everything that needed to be done. She listened when I had questions and even asked my husband if he had any questions.
Outstanding nice.
Good listener & knowledgeable.
Doctor was excellent, couldn't have been any better! Spent the time to explain everything, answer all questions, never felt rushed. very impressed!
Very knowledgeable & helpful & not trying to "sell" me on something - cut right to the point which I like.
