- August 29, 2023 Dr. Sprinkle is the best podiatrist I’ve ever seen. Not only is he professional and thorough , he is friendly and caring . When Dr. Sprinkle closed his practice Kernersville , I tried another Kernersville podiatrist with Novant Health. Very disappointing visit . I decided Dr. Sprinkle was definitely worth the extra driving to Winston-Salem!
- August 24, 2023 Best doctor ever!!!! Other doctors should take lessons from him for caring and understanding. Regretfully he is a dieing breed.
- August 23, 2023 He rally took the time to listen to me and assess my issue. He checked back on me several times while I was waiting for a brace and prescription. Made me feel very comfortable and well taken care of.
- August 23, 2023 Dr. Sprinkle is a nice, friendly guy. And yes, I am sure he has seen Plantar Fasciitis a thousand times. However, the appointment (same as last time) with Dr. Sprinkle was extremely quick. I was disappointed to pay the specialist copay only for maybe 5 minutes of rushed time with the doctor. In addition, the nurses/assistants did not document or follow up with the recommended next action for care. I had to request the next action of PT scheduling.

- August 21, 2023 He had a pleasant demeanor but didn’t take the necessary time for a diabetic foot examination, I told him what I was doing to take care of my feet and the continued toenail thickness/fungus and the painful calluses under my feet. He did attempt to shave under my left foot but there wasn’t much there because of my foot soaks and scraping them, and applying creams to moisturize.
- August 18, 2023 Dr. Sprinkle is a WONDERFUL Doctor he listen's and he cares not only does he care about the the reason for my visit to him I think he is concerned about my visits to all of my Doctor's at Baptist we have very nice talks I leave his office feeling cared about

- April 16, 2023 The doctor spent less than 10 minutes with me. It was the first time I'd ever met him, and I had to wait 3 weeks to see him.
