Dr. Hinton was always nice to me. She is definitely a blunt person though. I do feel she gave me some false hope as she told me after my laparascopy I should have no problem getting pregnant but that was not the case. I think she is very knowledgeable though but it's probably very tough to compete with fertility clinics.... We then tried two IUI's with clomid with Dr. Hinton. It was difficult to coordinate everything because she is the only doctor and the lab is offsite. It was not a very smooth process and hard to schedule everything.
If you're looking for a one-stop-shop for fertility treatment this is not it [Endrika Hinton, MD]. They are not open 7 days a week and blood work, specimens, etc. take place offsite.... My biggest issue was that the labs are not on site and it takes a lot to arrange for your IUI because you have to make sure it meshes with her schedule since she is the only doctor. Trying to conceive is stressful enough without trying to coordinate different times and places.

What's one piece of advice would you give a prospective patient of Endrika Hinton at Endrika Hinton, MD?

Describe the protocols Endrika Hinton used in your cycles at Endrika Hinton, MD and their degree of success.
Dr. Hinton performed by laparascopy. After having that she told me to try to conceive on my own for 6 months to a year. We were unsuccessful.
We then tried two IUI's with clomid with Dr. Hinton. It was difficult to coordinate everything because she is the only doctor and the lab is offsite. It was not a very smooth process and hard to schedule everything.
Describe your experience with the nursing staff at Endrika Hinton, MD.
There really wasn't much of a nursing staff. I think she had one MA who worked with her.
Describe your experience with Endrika Hinton, MD.
Dr. Hinton is knowledgeable and seems very capable. My biggest issue was that the labs are not on site and it takes a lot to arrange for your IUI because you have to make sure it meshes with her schedule since she is the only doctor. Trying to conceive is stressful enough without trying to coordinate different times and places. If Dr. Hinton had been in a clinic setting I would have continued my care with her.

My IUI's were covered by my insurance. I believe I had to pay a minimal amount to hit my deductible.

I suspect she [Dr. Endrika Hinton] committed malpractice with my care, and completely missed a diagnosis that she should have made. She also made mistakes with the very basics of infertility treatment -- for instance, having me trigger for a date when I knew ovulation had already passed. She could never recall where in the cycle I was, so I was always needing to try and compensate.

[Dr. Hinton] knew my name and I didn’t have to go through 20 underlings to talk to her and get an answer or set up a special appointment...I had access to her all the time...She is blunt but I needed that...I had a long history of pcos and infertility and had tried everything and been to tons of doctors...dr Hinton discovered I also had insulin resistance we repaired my body then proceeded with ivf with icsi as planned and I can say after 18 years infertility I have twin boys thanks to her help
Julie [nurse at Endrika Hinton's office] is an angel...she did everything for us...always there to help...she was reliable we love her...The lab is in the building next door so I would go there get my blood draw...go next door to the office sonogram...ivf patients are seen first so I was usually one of the first 2 patients...If you want to interact with your actual doctor and not be just a number this is your place you see dr Hinton every visit and she meets you to do all surgery’s and procedures I loved that if you book to late of an appointment you may wait longer because your doctor is seeing patients and performing surgery’s I love it here and can’t imagine going back to a big clinic after being here
