Love Dr. Goins! I am new to this area, and being a nurse, I am skeptical and cautious when selecting a provider. Very down to earth, personable, and seeks to get to the bottom of the issues.

I met Dr Goins for the first time. I normally dread going to the doctor. He was easy to talk to. It surprised me. He listened and gave me good advice. He explained things to where I understood and could give feed back. I appreciated his candidness and professional demeanor! I will be following up and referring more people to Heart and Vascular.

I really like a doctor who is no-nonsense. Just give me the facts and tell me what I need to do. This is what Dr Goins did and I appreciate it. In fact, my wife, who was with me, made an appointment as well for a follow up to some testing she had done elsewhere.

Very kind and humorous doctor. We all need more laughter! The best medicine! Personable and knowledgeable. I wish he was my regular doctor but he is in a good specialty to help others in need. (I would probably have to see a NP because he would be so busy as a GP)
