Very helpful. Listened to my concerns & suggestions for proper treatment. Feel confident that he will be able to help me.
Very well done made me move everything check everything then did the x-rays and also now we’re gonna do a MRI so I think he did quite well. Thank you very very much for seeing me.

Dr. Hawkins was very easy to talk too.
Great service and always helpful
After seeing four other doctors, Dr. Hawkins finally acknowledged and explained what was wrong with my daughter. Very grateful.
It was my first visit and he was so nice to talk with and explain everything to me.
Takes time to answer all questions
I think he has a great connection with patients… I like his non-invasive approach. I felt that he connected with me and never felt rushed during the appointment. I would definitely recommend him for any spine related problems.
