Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Before 2019 I would have given a 5 star review. But the practice has quickly gone down hill. Doc had some issues but instead, for the patients, he chose to stay on part time instead of retiring. I have multiple serious issues & Doc prefers to see me personally. 4 times I have scheduled appts for Doc, show up only to find I'm scheduled for the PA & had to reschedule. They are now some type of group. They went fully computerized & immediately removed all patient records. They never asked for a list of scripts, never asked for ins cards, bill as cash & then I've had to go around with then to bill the ins. Almost every time I call for script refills, they either don't get sent or go to the wrong pharmacy who says they are getting a bad rep for the screw ups. I hate to say it Doc, but by making these changes, you are doing a disservice to your patients, I'm only hanging on because your are such a very good doctor, but your staff is some of the worst, they just don't know what they are doing

He is one of the most knowledgeable Doctor I know. He has worked long hours over the years 5 in the morning till 530 at night taking care of his private practice and patients at the hospital. He is not like most doctors when your punch clock ends, your gone and don't have the personal touch. Dr. Mienk is just the opposite, he is always available when needed and saved my life a few weeks ago with a fully obstructed airway. He enjoys his wife, family and hunting. God bless Dr. Mienk

Awful. Was told he didn't want me as a patient after I had come for a scheduled appt. No reason stated. He is a duck doctor - a quack
