"He was not interested in me or my injuries. He spent very little time with me and was less than polite!!"
— Vitals review for Dr. John York"When I called in to ask for pain relief I was told 'we do not treat pain before surgery only after'. My PCP would not help either because I was seeing Dr. Hopkins for my pain."
— Healthgrades review for Dr. Mark Hopkins"This doctor never even looked at the medical information I gave this doctor. I am in heart failure...This doctor is frightening and I strongly advise getting second opinion."
