When I arrived as a new patient, the practice was very busy. The staff told me they had responded to an emergency earlier in the day, but that they would very soon catch up. I was impressed by the efficiency of the operation and my issue was dealt with quickly and professionally. Thank you, Dr. Hines and staff.

Dr. Hines quickly assessed my needs. He explained clearly the results of a recent biopsy and outlined what steps needed to be raken and will have the surgeon’s office call me to schedule. He had his nurse clean my biopsy wound, treat it, and bandage it. Dr. Hines had s prescription transmitted electronically to a local pharmacy so I could continue to care for the wound. I was very impressed with the scope of his services performed in such a short period of time.
