Patient Story

” Hinkapin Health helped my family afford a knee replacement my mother had been needing for years. She lives in another county and did not have a good option for knee replacement there. We had previously tried a few times to get her knee replaced here but prices at the hospitals were thousands of dollars more than we could afford. My family is so grateful for this cash price that we could afford and now my mom is walking on her own again. Thank you Hinkapin Health! ” 

Patient Story

” For years I have had stomach pain and was told I needed hernia surgery. After scheduling a consultation with Hinkapin Health the doctor told me I did not have a hernia and sent me to see another specialist.  This doctor discovered I had very large fibroids and told me they would need to be surgically removed. After my surgery I immediately felt so much relief from the pain I had been having for years. I cannot say thank you enough to these two doctors and Hinkapin Health for taking such great care of me. ”
