Eye issues? Dr. Hinkle, the most caring doctor you will ever meet.My 82 yr old husband couldn't see out of his right eye, the lense on his left eye from a previous surgery was also foggy. After a consult and testing, Dr. Hinkle and staff took outstanding care of my husband. Surgery was fast and without issues, recovery was extremely fast and my husband is now back to enjoying life, he is so happy to be able to see again. Surgery involved a lense being cleaned from a previous surgery, which took all of a couple of minute's and a cataract removed from the other eye. I have never seen a team so meticulous and caring. They were all on top of everything from start to finish. A great office, great surgery center and great people all through, which is hard to find these day's. We thank you Dr. Hinkle and Staff, we appreciate the great care. 5 stars and an A+ from our family. The Quill's of Shalimar
