environment was exceptionally clean

05/08/2024

Good experience every visit

05/08/2024

He has improved with regard to slowing down his speech. He often seems rushed, but that is understandable given his patient scheduling. I arrive prepared so that I can get the most out of my appointments. Really like him.

04/30/2024

Love this new Dr in the practice

04/25/2024

This doctor was excellent in all ways. Bedside manner, thoroughness of care, listening and respondinding, use of technology. I have recommended him.and this practice to my son and his family who are moving to the area at the end of May.technology

04/22/2024

He talks fast, seems rushed, but has improved with wach appointment. What I like most is that his care is collaborative. Even though he can talk fast, I feel he listens to me. Love that he is precise and organized as well. He's a new doctor for us and we are pleased so far. us

04/22/2024

Dr Tinkerhess is awesome!

04/18/2024

Dr Tinkerhess listened and and answered all questions I had

04/15/2024

Dr. Tinkerhess was thorough, but spoke at very low level (explanation was aimed well beneath me). He seemed rushed, probably because things were running behind schedule.

04/04/2024

I will go keep going to this doctor

04/03/2024

Again this Doctor is awesome!

03/27/2024

Dr TINKERHESS has been an excellent choice for my Dr. My original Dr closed. DR T, has been a better Dr than what i was used to. I really appreciate all he has done to help me.

03/26/2024

I would drive back to South Lyon just to see him! He was very kind, and knowledgeable. I felt like he listened to what I had to say, and didn鈥檛 rush me. Took the time to hear my concerns and not just write me a prescription and send me away. I feel like that is so hard to find these days. I also left, and Dr. Tinkerness called me (not his nurse or staff), to discuss a few more things he was thinking about that we talked about in my appointment. I think that shows how much he cares, and made me feel important. Highly recommend him as a physician.

03/25/2024

Dr. Tinkerhess was wonderful. I was incredibly anxious about this appointment and in a good amount of discomfort. He was professional while still managing to break the general tension and put me at ease. While I could tell he was very busy I still felt that he took time with me without rushing or dismissing my feelings as part of the appointment experience. I am incredibly grateful and would be more than happy to see him as a provider any time.

03/21/2024

Again, I am always late being seen. Everyone wants their time respected and I just don't see it with this office. I have been going to IHA now for over 10 years and I did not see this before/

03/21/2024

I have been very happy and comfortable with my treatment by staff all staff including nurses office staff and Dr Tinkerhess, he has literally been a life saver for me.

02/28/2024

02/14/2024

02/13/2024

Dr. Tinkerhess is great at explaining things thoroughly so I don't have to Google them later! Things always move quickly and efficiently, which is helpful with the temperament of an infant.

02/07/2024

12/22/2023

By far best provider i have seen.

12/21/2023

It is hard to rate a first time experience, as it is really a meet and greet. This survey should be sent out after a few visits when things have settled down

12/19/2023

Im happy Dr. T came to this location, and I feel good he will be my physician.

12/18/2023

He was able to convince me to have a tetanus shot I'd been avoiding for a long time. His concern was very sincere.
