I used to see Dr Adkins at Duke, for chronic daily migraines. She’s really nice - that is if you actually are able to get into your appointment. She is seriously and chronically late for her appointment. Once I waited 2 1/2 hours before I finally left. It was almost 6pm, and there were still 5 of us waiting to see her - some people having driven several hours to see her as a specialist. Like another reviewer, I had a serious reaction to a treatment, and despite my calling multiple times a day for a solid week, not one call w... read more

Seven years ago, a UNC Otolaryngologist referred me to Dr. Adkins for vertigo and migraines. Surprised, since Dr. Adkins was at Duke, I asked, "Why Duke?" The answer: "Dr. Adkins is the best." My experience had been (still is) that most doctors are reluctant to take on patients with complex medical problems. And starting over at a new medical center would be a big hassle. But Dr. O convinced me, so I went. On my first visit, I arrived with a migraine. Once in the examination room, I turned off the lights. When Dr. Adkins arr... read more

Dr. Adkins is in my opinion the best neurologist to she if you have chronic migraines or headaches. She is through and does not leave any stone unturned with diagnosis and treatment. Head pain is a very tricky thing. There are no labs or test that can be ran to diagnose. Dr. Adkins takes the time and really gets to know her patients pior to treatment. I highly recommend her if you’re have any kind of chronic head pain.

I have been under Dr. Adkins's care for 9 years. She has always treated me with compassion, concern, and has a genuine desire to help me combat my chronic migraines. I'm not an easy patient to treat due to medication restrictions, but Dr. Adkins is always seeking ways to alleviate my migraines. I would highly recommend Dr. Adkins.

My experience with Dr. Adkins was phenomenal. My first visit to see her; I had recently been in a car accident and was experiencing major headaches. The ambience was amazing and I immediately felt a sense of comfort. She was very welcoming and pleasant. she knew exactly what I needed and she provided me with excellent care. For that I am greatly appreciative. I would highly recommend Dr Adkins to anyone who may be experiencing traumatic head aches. She's the best. LaVerne Grafton

I have been seeing Dr. Adkins for several years for very effective migraine treatment. Dr. Adkins listens - something many other doctors could do more. From time-to-time Dr. Adkins has tweaked my treatment to provide ever better relief. I highly recommend that anyone suffering from any type of headache or related neurological condition see Dr. Adkins.

I've been seeing Dr. Adkins now for about 6 months. I've been dealing with migraines since I was 11 years old and I've had no luck with doctor's prior to working with Dr. Adkins. She's been incredibly helpful and willing to work with me around particular medications I'd prefer to avoid. Since I've started seeing Dr. Adkins my headaches are down to less than one a week, and my migraines less than one a month. This is a huge improvement in my quality of life and couldn't be happier with her!
