Dr. Pinkston did a great job in the appointment. She listened well, gave great medical advice and even had time at the end to ask about me personally. She is a great addition to the St. Joseph Medical Group.

I recently moved to SA and had to undergo the unnerving process of finding a new doctor by randomly selecting from a list of approved providers that accept my insurance and hoping that I choose correctly. Well, just one visit with Dr Pinkston and I'm SO relieved. She was fantastic! She was calmn, well-informed, listened intently to each of my concerns and gave me competent guidance. I never felt rushed or pushed aside, and I have every faith in her abilities as a doctor and bedside manner. I absolutely will be making her my Primary Physician and will be recommending her to anyone in the market for a new doc!
