He really listened to what Was going on with me

Nothing written on my intake survey was discussed. Since this was not my primary doctor, he seemed to just want to punt everything to my next visit with my primary. I was trying to get my well check in before the end of the year after my primary doctor was unavailable for the scheduled appointment, but it turned out to pretty much be a waste of time. Only good thing was that the provider suggested and ordered a shingles vaccine.

First, the Well Check' is a waste of time. Doc comes in, hadn't even looked at the concerns I had written down, asked one question about my meds, listened to my heart for 5 seconds, then tried to end our appt with "glad you're doing well." I needed some referrals for reasonable things and felt like I had to fight for them. He seemed very resistant to giving me the referrals.

I would not recommend Dr. Richard Minkner. He has no bedside manner at all and I felt very unwelcomed as a patient. Made me not want to see him again. 0/10
