Dr. Starts Is great. I've gone to his expert practice for over a decade.
Nice , friendly and respectful
Very professional care! All procedures explained very well! I had injections yesterday and am seeing improvements in my hands today!!
Very professional and friendly. Great bed-side manner. Listens and hears his patient. Takes the time to listen and answer my questions that I clearly understand and know my treatment options. I always recommend him to others. Thank you
He took the time to listen to me.he
I’ve seen a few different doctors at Pinnacle and they’ve all been great (especially Burris); however Dr. Starnes has possibly the worst bedside manner out of any doctor I’ve ever had. He was rude and uncaring. He did not answer some of my questions and just stared at me like I was a nuisance for wanting an answer (or even just a best guess) as to why a certain area was in pain when he diagnosed a different area. I understand the need to poke and prod around when coming in with muscle/tendon pain but when I told him a certain area was hurting badly after he pressed it, he proceeded to press harder and continued to do so every time I said an area he was pressing hurt. It felt very sadistic. I left in more pain than when I came in and with a half-cocked diagnosis. I will fully dissuade anyone from seeing him if possible. Worst experience with any doctor ever.
Very poor bedside manners . Non-caring body language, tone of voice and even what he says. Does not foster trustworthiness.
His demeanor was a bit rough for someone like me and certain comments made me feel more uncomfortable and scared, about addressing my issues, as a new patient. Otherwise, he seems to know what he’s doing.
Excellent
