    "Dr Jenkins is actually very well-rounded in listening and everything he gets very concerned when things are out of order and when you need help and he points it out and even when you realize that yourself so I'm very happy with that"

    Dr Jenkins had done several tangible things to make my life better. Off the top of my head I can think of four. I mean things that made a difference in my and consequently my families life and relationships. Not too mention my own health.

    Dr Jenkins is awesome. I’ve never had a more observant, caring psychiatrist. He treats me like a person, not a number in a long line of other, faceless numbers. That’s incredibly important and I’ve never had a psychiatrist like that! I completely dread his retirement!!!

    "Even though the medication my other doc had given me before I saw this doc had side effects, it seemed strange that this doctor asked to look at my medication bottle, then when I handed it to him, he said he wouldn't give it back. (After I/ my insurance paid for it) and he kept it. It wasn't a big deal but it bothered me later because 1) When I mentioned this to someone else, they said I should call the cops because it was a controlled substance and I (only) should have it. And 2) I try to keep old medicine bottles from prescriptions that dont work so I know what to avoid next if the issue returns time. It's the best system I've found, and I've never seen a doctor do this. He said it was because he didn't want me taking both meds together. I would have done that anyway, because I know it's dangerous... It just really bothered me after someone said it's probably illegal and I should call the cops."

    I’ve been coming for 35 years so obviously I think Dr. Jenkins is the best! I drive 2 hours from Lubbock, which is not convenient, because I trust him and know I will always be taken care of in the best possible way. There are doctors I could see here, but he has always been there when I need him and I believe he really cares. That is worth the drive!

    Dr Jenkins should be xeroxed and spread all over. At least in Amarillo. He’s caring, a good listener and very smart. I’ve never had a psychiatrist actually spend time with me, which I find very odd. I’ve been to 5 other local psychiatrists over the years and never experienced compassion until I met Dr Jenkins. I’m staying.
