Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Collins isn't the problem.... the staff is
Dr. Collins has been our family doctor for years and we love him dearly. My husband and I go once a year for our physicals, we was there on Dec. 7, 2022. Our Insurance pays 100 percent for physicals. Some one in that office made a mistake and is saying we owe our copay which is $30.00 for me and $30.00 for my husband a $60.00 mistake. Never had a problem in all these years at Dr. Collins office, makes you wonder about Atrium Health. WE DO NOT OWE THIS!!! Beware people if you are there for a physical and your Insurance pays 100 percent of your visit get it in writing from the women at the desk when you check in because they will say it was not a physical that you had.

I Love Dr Collins He is The Absolute Best But It's Sad That When Dr Virtue Came The Ladies That Makes Appointment's Switched us To Dr Virtue Without Us Wanting Them To...Me & My Spouse along With My Other Family That Goes There and When We Ask If We Can Switch Back To Doctor Collins They Always Tell Us No. I Hope That Doctor Collins Sees This Or Someone That Would Fix This Problem See's This !!!!!!!!!!!

I have been with Dr. Collins for over ten years and love him dearly. He literally saved my life in 2011 when I went to him for approval for hip surgery and he discovered heart disease. His love of people is apparent in all his transactions. I also like his nurse practitioner and Dr. Virtue.

I could not ask for a better doctor! I love that Dr. Collins was a pharmacist before he went to med school and knows possible drug interactions as well as what drugs work best for any condition. He is not only knowledgeable, but very caring and compassionate. He always takes time to find out how I am really doing, and discusses my health with me rather than just telling me what to do. He is THE BEST!

Very disappointed that your office could not provide an order for my Mother in a timely manner. She is a patient at Winthrop West. She provided a urine sample to check for a UTI. The sample was no good by the time the order was sent and there was no nurse available to collect another sample. Your office then suggested to my 88 year old Dad that it would be quicker for me to take my 87 year old Mother who uses a walker to Urgent Care where we have been for the last hour and not seen a doctor yet.
