Scott Mckinstry's Online Review Report Card

Dr. Scott Mckinstry was very rude and impatient. We drove 3 hours for him to scream at my father for simply following orders from another Dr. (His associate). They didn't have their notes together and both doctors did not seem to be on the same page regarding my father's care. Drove for nothing but to hear him yelling since they did nothing to him at his office. He cancelled future appointments because of my father's poor English even after I offered to translate(certified interpreter) since his assistant was incapable of doing so. Should've read the reviews before bothering to drive to Corpus for this bs.

Went on December 10th for a Stress Test my results came back 3 weeks later. All this time I thought there was nothing wrong. I received a call from is cardiologist saying you have 3 blood blockages and a large one leading to your HEART and that I needed to have a HEART CATHETERIZATION to see were they are located. He also said the side effects of that is a stroke , heart attack or death. I went into shock and handed the phone to my Husband. They called me to scheduled the surgery I told them to hold off because I was still in SHOCK because of what he told me. I decided to go and get a second opinion. Then I remember my Dad saying if you ever have HEART problems go get a second opinion with who was my Dad cardiologist for over 25 years. Thank God I did At 5pm today the reviewed my CD his Nurse called and said that there is nothing wrong that everything looked good and your are OK. Please if you feel good and don't feel sick . Seek 2nd opinio

He placed stents in my dad's heart after heart attack and my dad is still alive 15-20 years later w no problems. His hands and expertise are very gifted.

Worst bedside manner you will ever see. You would be better off going to the County than seeing this doctor. I honestly think there’s something wrong with him. Trust me...don’t waste your time with Dr. McKinstry.

Absolutely the worst Dr. anyone could ever go to. He talks to you like you are not important he's rude, arrogant and disrespectful RUN, RUN....HURRY away from him.

Worst experience I ever had with a so-called "medical professional". Arrogant, condescending, and unprofessional. I nearly died waiting on him to make a decision even after he knew exactly what my condition was. He cannot even make eye contact when he is talking with you. Fails to provide information in a timely manner and would not return calls or respond to messages. Go elsewhere. Wishing I could award about 5 negative stars.

Went with my mother and I agree with previous posters. No bedside manners, would cut my mom off when she was speaking, rolled his eyes when she would speak, did not believe there was anything wrong and could not leave the room fast enough.

No bedside manners! He made me feel like I was waiting his time in being there and his rude mannerisms caused a spike in my blood pressure. I would NEVER recommend him as he unprofessional in every aspect. (1 star is an exaggeration....he deserves no stars!)

Don't ever go to this doctor if think he's going to be honest with you. He he's a self-centered doctor connected to your main doctor that recommends you to him. I went to visit him 2 months ago under recommendation of my doctor Jorge from Portland, yes you know who he is. I got results from a sonogram that showed that I had Plaque on both arteries on my neck. Finally I got a recommendation to the specialist mckingstry.👍-- so I thought! Upon arriving to his office, the nurse finally put me in the back room waiting for the doctor to see me. As soon as he entered he said" You are good to go" I have never seen him and he has never seen me. Without doing any test he said they based on the reports from my famiy doctor and lab results, i was ok! I showed him the lab report that showed that I have partial blokage on my neck arteries, he said I don't treat patients like you-- you come back to me when you have a stroke. I told him I'm here because I don't want to have a stroke, and I'm hoping you can help me prevent it. They told me it was good to go and let's go and told me to go the main desk to get paperwork finalized. I told my wife that if I do have a stroke due you to his failureto give me a proper examination, to sue him-- and she will

Was very rude. Treated me as though nothing was wrong without even checking me out. My doctor sent me to him for numerous reasons and he acted as though I was faking being sick. No bedside manners at all. Really acted as though he could care less. Will not go back and I will be calling my dr to let her know she shouldnt refer her patients to him again.
