Dr. Robins is compassionate, knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and helpful in every way. He is a very good listener and somehow remembers many of the details of my fairly extensive medical history. I consider myself very fortunate to have him as my primary care provider. Nothing but good things to say about him!

Dr Robins is great. I've seen him for years and recommended him to my grandmother. She likes him too. He's a patient, kind doctor who listens and when he doesn't know an answer he figures out who does. (Rare tho. He knows most answers!)

Dr. Robins is a gem...kind, interested, direct and patient. He always takes whatever time is needed to address issues and never makes me feel rushed. All the staff at that clinic are friendly and respectful. I would have no concerns referring anyone to this provider and I HOPE HE NEVER LEAVES!!!

Dr Robins and his team are extremely friendly, knowledgeable, and thoughtful. My visits are always efficient but I never feel rushed or hurried. I feel like Dr. Robins is especially keyed into my specific health picture and his guidance has led me to lose weight and improve my blood pressure in a way that was nonjudgmental and supportive. The front desk staff is especially friendly and warm and it is a pleasure to come to the office.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
I enjoy Dr. Robins more with each visit and have come to respect him quite a bit. I am new to him, about 18 months. To form a relationship that is truly beneficial to both parties takes time an attention by both parties. I have never had an appt with Dr Robins that I have not made him late for his next appointment and where we have left things unsaid. I feel it is acutely unfair to pressure Dr Robins to perform under this type of pressure. It is, of course, also potentially unsafe as well as unnerving to me as the patient. I feel that this is mostly unfair to Dr. Robins. I have been with this clinic I think for 40+ years and this is only my 4th physician. Thank You for giving me the opportunity to comment.

The visit was great.

Dr. Robins is an exceptional PCP that took time to thoroughly investigate symptoms, medications, and pharmacological alternatives that offer potential efficacy. In addition to effective evaluation of the micro/acute physical symptoms that resulted in my visit, he was also able to make accurate observations and assess my macro emotional affect as well.

Dr. Robins is warm and affable while being knowledgeable and efficient (and not paternalistic).I tried to make an appointment on my phone with the Legacy lab near his office and the website hung. I couldn't do in in the app either. I just walked there. Luckily, they were not busy.

Dr. Robins has a wonderful bed side manner - calm, thoughtful, personable - and a breadth of knowledge about how medicine, medications and testing Impact the human body in specific age related terms. I appreciate his professionalism as much as I do his subtle and charming sense of humor. Dr. Robins is my third GP with Legacy Clinic and my first male GP. He's exactly what I need as a [age removed] year old but because of his empathy and compassion he'd be amazing with anyone identifying with any pronoun. I have recommended him to friends and acquaintances. Thanks.

This was a last minute appointment I made. The staff got me in very quickly. This was the first time I met with this doctor. He was professional, friendly, and easy to understand. Most importantly, I trusted his prognosis and recommendations for my situation.

My negative experiences deal with legacy laboratory services. It is frustrating that they are unable to do throat and rectal swabs for STIs and instead I am required to see my PCP for this

I reported to Dr Robins about the origin and impact of my recent calf muscle injury and he was well informed about the way to diagnose the type and severity of the condition and to provide guidance for the means to obtain a timely and complete recovery. I am confident if I follow his instructions I will return to normal good health.

My husband and I are completely pleased with Dr. Robins. My daughter now goes to him too. She always accompanies us to see him.
Please comment on good or bad experiences related to your visit.
The medical assistant took my blood pressure only, no temp, heart rate, or SpO2. At the end of the visit on my summary the numbers were entered as if they were taken, including a heart rate of "80", when my resting heart rate is actually 50.I am always very hesitant to seek medical care because my insurance plan Regence BCBS does not cover much at all. I was referred to counseling but do not know how much it will cost and it is hard to get an answer. I did discuss thisWith Dr Robins who said he would look into it, then I got a call from someone today to try to schedule an appointment with counseling but no information on the exploration of financing. I had to decline.
