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.

Intelligent and kind
Dr. Hinchman is very kind and personable. He and his staff have been extraordinarily responsive. He has a very good relationship with my daughter and treats her with respect.

I would not recommend. I was a long time patient. He was always just ready to prescribe another medication if the last one wasn’t working. Not enough testing to get to the cause of your problem. He had put me on a anxiety medication which only should be used short term ( I was on it for 5 years) and now I am struggling with withdrawal.

My experience with Dr. Hinchman was not a good one. He called me back 15 minutes after my scheduled appointment, he was not personable, he did not listen to me, and he was rude. I could say more, but I will leave it at that. I do not recommend that you see Dr. Hinchman.

I highly recommend not using Dr. Hinchman. Absolutely the worst medical provider I've ever been associated with. My wife suffers with major depression. During her worst hours of need Dr. Hinchman was uncaring, rude, unprofessional and was unable to provide any direction or help.

Dr. Hinchman is incredibly well-informed, insightful, and personable. He explains well every recommendation he makes, and above all treats patients with understanding and respect. I have recommended and will continue to recommend Dr. Hinchman to friends and family.
