My wife didn't get past the phone call for an appointment because we currently do not have insurance. She has been having pains for almost week now and having one emergency room visit and being rushed through with little help she was referred to another gastroenterologist who has been blowing us off. They thought it would be a gall bladder . She went to another emergency room who did better but still found nothing and referred her to the same docs, who happen to be closed today. Being in pain we looked to this doctor but the receptionist said they don't take people without insurance which is illegal. These people are breaking the law by refusing help to a person with a potential life threatening condition.

I also had to sit for 2 hours before my name was called. The nurses were very nice and understanding. Dr. Collins is very understanding with everthing of my past history. The test that I need was set up in a timely manner. He in concerned with what he can do to help the patient. I'm very impressed with him and his staff.
