Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Summary created using AI
Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
Patients appreciate
The overwhelming majority of patients describe Dr. Christopher Trinh as friendly, professional, and highly knowledgeable, with excellent bedside manner that puts patients at ease even during uncomfortable procedures like injections. Reviewers consistently praise his clear communication style, noting that he explains diagnoses, X-ray findings, and treatment plans in an understandable way and takes time to answer questions without making patients feel rushed. Many patients also highlight his efficiency and punctuality, often mentioning short wait times and quick, well-organized visits from check-in through treatment. His skill with injections and procedures, along with a warm, personable demeanor that makes patients feel comfortable and genuinely cared for, are frequently cited as standout qualities, with numerous reviewers stating they would recommend him to friends and family.
Patients also share
A smaller number of reviews point to areas for improvement. Several patients noted that Dr. Trinh sometimes speaks quickly, which made it harder for them to fully follow explanations during the visit. One review described an appointment as feeling rushed and confusing, with the patient feeling like the doctor wanted to be elsewhere and offering an MRI that seemed inconsistent with the stated diagnosis. Another patient reported that a knee aspiration procedure was more painful than expected because no numbing agent was used beforehand, and they felt he lacked empathy in that moment. A few other reviews mentioned minor issues, such as one visit summary not fully reflecting what was discussed, and inconsistent experiences with front-office staff.
