    Dr. Hankins saw me on an emergency visit for a broken finger. I had a terrible fall and I went in…read morethere five days later. He came in and assessed the kind of break it was and gave me information. I was very glad that I don't need surgery. I was very impressed that they got me in for an appointment so fast .

    It's the season for Thanks, so this review is long overdue…read more No one wants to have a problem with your hand, wrist, or elbow. We rely so much on our limbs and we don't give them a second thought until we have an injury, illness, or problem. I found myself in quite a bad way for over two years with my left arm. I had originally been seen and diagnosed with lateral epicondylitis (aka tennis elbow) by an orthopedic doctor I had been referred to by my then-pcp at Dignity Health. After a successful but short-lived response to a cortisone shot, I had an MRI. Surgery was recommended during COVID times which was rather complex as elective surgeries weren't even being scheduled. I was told it would be an open approach with a 6-8 week recovery period and additional weeks of physical therapy. I had never had surgery before and was frankly concerned. I then sought a second opinion from a hand and elbow surgeon in LA. He recommended a PRP injection. Then my insurance stoped contracting with Dignity Health and the orthopedic doctor. I then experienced a crisis with my arm resulting in an ER visit. My new Sutter primary care doctor recommended Dr. Hankins and said he was the only hand and elbow orthopedic surgeon in the Sacramento area. I saw Dr. Hankins and felt immediately at ease. He is a man of few words and lots of knowledge and experience. He knows how to assess and examine a patient without causing more pain. He advised more shots and perhaps surgery, although he said it was an option and could not guarantee a specific outcome. I was lured by the hype job of PRP and had the treatment in LA a few months later. When it did not go according to plan, and even resulted in an ER visit (it's not called experimental without reason), I hoped Dr. Hankins would see me again. Much to my relief, Dr. Hankins scheduled the surgery at my request, and never said a word about my PRP "experiment." I was hopeful that the disabling and crippling pain and immobility I'd been dealing with for three years had a chance of improving. I was also very scared of surgery (my first!) but I felt finally it had to be done. Almost 2.5 years after my surgery I can say it was the best decision ever, and Dr. Hankins gave me my arm back. He did an arthroscopic approach which meant my recovery was much quicker and my post surgical ace bandages and sling were off in a short time. Whenever I needed follow up care or PT referrals Dr. Hankins and his excellent medical assistant were there to help. Professional and caring. I highly recommend this practice and doctor. I would hope you wouldn't have a hand or elbow condition and need surgery, but if you do, there could not be a better doctor.

    Dr. Nguyentat is incredible! She is knowledgeable, kind, and extremely helpful. I have been seeing…read moreher for plantar fasciitis and heel spurs, and I had surgery with her about a week and a half ago. I am very grateful that I chose her as my surgeon. My follow-up appointment never felt rushed. She took the time to answer all of my questions, and we were even able to discuss when it might be appropriate to schedule surgery for my other foot. She is very informative and makes sure you understand what to expect throughout the process. A HUGE plus is how quickly Dr. Nguyentat and her assistant, James, handle work-related paperwork. When I requested paperwork, I received it the same day! I've had paperwork for another condition take months through a different doctor's office, so I really appreciate that they understand how important it is to get these forms completed quickly so your time away from work is protected. The ladies at the front desk are also extremely helpful and genuinely go above and beyond. My husband mentioned that we needed an EDD form and thought we would have to drive all the way to Sacramento to get a copy. One of the ladies searched through her drawer, found an extra copy, and gave it to him. It wasn't something she had to do, but that small act of kindness saved us a trip and meant a lot.Overall, I've had such a positive experience with Dr. Nguyentat and the entire office. From my surgery and follow-up care to the paperwork and front desk staff, everyone has been helpful, responsive, and caring. I truly appreciate the level of care I've received!

    Worst place. Receptionists are all rude and transfer you before you even get to finish your…read moresentence. Been trying to reach the doctor I saw "McClintock" and that's basically impossible. Saw him the first time a couple months ago when the office was in Folsom. The scheduled me for a follow up appointment. During that time they moved to Roseville. Did not bother to mention to me that they were moving. Service has been terrible from the get go. There is a reason these reviews are as low as they are. Do yourself a favor and find a different doctor. One that actually pays attention to patients. Or you'll just end up changing down the line when you can't get a hold of them or they don't return your calls after you leave messages. Complete waste of time by McClintock and his fly by night outfit.
