Trustworthy, easy to talk to, listens to you and tells you what your diagnosis is. Love him. Highly recommend. He's been my doctor for 7 years and treated all my family until they passed. Highly respect him. It means everything when you put your life in someone else's hands and I do WITHOUT hesitation.

My husband & I have been patients of Dr. Jenkins for almost 20 yrs. He has diagnosed problems I've had that was sometimes related to Pulmonary & sometimes to just bad reactions to meds,etc. & made sure we were referred to the proper Specialists when it was out of his field. He has always been 'right-on' with the diagnosis(s). He's about 2 hrs. ea. way from our home now & it is worht the drive to get good treament when we need it. Just wish he could also be our 'Family' physician. I don't think I'd be alive today if it weren't for Dr. Jenkins as he knows when to use "agressive" treatm't for serious lung problems & when to just let time heal with a little help from him with medication, if necessary. ps. Before his practice got so big, he use to spend more time with his patients, but do to patient increase & insurance regulations, he does have to hurry & it's up to the patient to try & have a list of questions/problems when seeing him.
