She continues, “Finding quality comprehensive care has been a challenge and my struggle has left me empathetic to the struggles of those searching for their health again, their quality of life and longevity. I am extremely passionate about providing the right answers to patients about their medical care. Each patient is like a son or a daughter or a mom or dad or a sister or brother to me. No one seen is left to feel alone in their struggle.” Voted “Super Doc” by her peers, voted “Most Compassionate Doctor” by patients, voted “Top Doc” as seen in San Antonio Magazine, Dr. Pinkston combines caring, empathy and knowledge in one package.
