January 10, 2023Tom S.Verified patient
I was able to get in very fast to my appointment. Front desk staff was patient and helpful. The assistant took me back and made me feel very relaxed and welcome. Doctor was very nice and did a great job listening to what concerns I had. He followed up with a few questions to really try to find the root of some problems instead of just jumping to write a prescription. Didn’t pressure me into getting any shots etc. Check out process was easy and quick. I would recommend Dr. Stinson and his staff to anyone looking around.

My first visit to Dr Stinson, my new family practitioner
He is excellent, very knowledgeable. He listens and discusses solutions. He gave me some advice about a product I was taking that may have caused me problems with a newer drug. Gave me an alternative.
Very easy to work with. Very confident.

October 21, 2022Michelle F.Verified patient
Always a chill and great time when I have to go. I very much appreciate Doc S. and all the staff. Everyone is so wonderful when I’m there.
September 22, 2022Nicolas B.Verified patient
I relocated to the area a few years ago-changing doctors was a chore. The PCP I went to first didn’t take the time listen, or check my chart!, she tried to prescribe a medication I was already on which would have doubled my dosage ?????, the office staff was less than ideal, getting an appointment was a hassle.
I was hesitant about establishing with a male PCP but Dr Stinson’s positive reviews won me over.
Booking the appointment was super easy, the new patient pre app ppwk was easy to get through online.
Everyone was prompt, friendly & efficient. Seems to be a well run office!
Dr. Stinson was engaging, asked questions, listened to my concerns/history, made recommendations, gave me a referral for a specialist & -most importantly-took the time to establish a rapport with me, all of which helped alleviate my initial hesitations.
5 stars across the board. I’m happy to be partnered with Dr Stinson, I feel confident that I’ll get excellent medical care & advice from him & his team.

May 10, 2022Gerard S.Verified patient
Dr Stinson was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. The staff also spoke highly of him and it was clear they enjoyed working there. He covered all of my questions and concerns for the appointment. Based on this very positive experience, that was also validated by other reviews, I decided to make him my primary care physician after the visit.
February 5, 2022Jon B.Verified patient
I was hoping to get prescription for medical condition I have. I presented the recommendations from the specialist on my condition. They dud not prescribe any of them & now I have to find another dr.
December 8, 2021April Elizabeth B.Verified patient
Dr. Stinson has the three best qualities that I look for in a doctor. He is caring, highly knowledgeable and highly personable. Staff were efficient and friendly and I was seen immediately.
November 27, 2021John S.Verified patient
It is always a little more difficult for someone who has worked in health care with advanced degrees to find a physician, mainly due to high standards and expectations. Dr. Stinson did not disappoint. He has an incredible bedside manner; he is friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and empathetic. I think I found my long term primary care doc!
November 19, 2021Christopher G.Verified patient
Dr. Stinson is a fantastic PCP with a professional and kind manner. Easy going and friendly. However, if you have specific mental health needs, you should take on a specialist.
November 16, 2021Jack S.Verified patient
I am so happy to be back with Dr Stinson - I was his patient in Ft Lauderdale for about 20 years - he moved to St Petersburg last year and I just moved here also . He is the most caring and thorough Dr I have ever been to -I would highly recommend him and his entire very efficient office staff !
