Dr, Collins is hands down the BEST. I have a rare bone disease. Multiple Hereditary Extosis. I’ve been a patient of his for over 30 years. He’s done nerve decompressions. Countless other surgeries on my arms. Extosis(benign bone tumors)removal . And elbow replacement on my right elbow. I had such horrible pain. He’s fixed me up so many times over the years. I’ve lost count.
He’s so so very nice and explains everything in detail. His staff is amazing. Jarrod is the sweetest and most kind guy.
I’m going to see him today. My left arm hurts so bad. I think I may have broken it.
I would highly recommend Dr. Collins.
And I would take my kids and grandkids to him if they ever have any upper extremities issues. I trust his knowledge on referrals to any orthopedic specialist that he may recommend for and other body part.

Like many other posters here, I can’t say enough good things about Dr Collins. He is the best. I have suffered with joint pain in both thumbs for many years. I had one doctor tell me many years ago that there was nothing that could be done. I would just have to live with the pain.
I am retired military and I was searching for a hand surgeon that took Tricare insurance, for retired military. Dr Collins was one of the only doctors in the area who accepted Tricare. I had thumb surgery on my left hand in November 2022. I recently had thumb surgery on my right hand in January 2024. My left hand is so much better now. I am still in recovery on my right hand, but it is coming along nicely.
I am so grateful to Dr Collins and his wonderful staff. They are terrific!

highly recommend Dr. Evan for anyone seeking exceptional medical care. Dr. Collins exemplifies professionalism, expertise, and compassion in his practice. His thorough approach to diagnosis and treatment instills confidence in his patients, and his genuine concern for their well-being is evident in every interaction. I have been consistently impressed by his dedication to providing the highest quality of care, making him an invaluable asset to the medical community.
The staff are extremely professional and nice making scheduling appointments great and smooth.
His office is located in the Scurluk Tower at Houston Methodist Hospital.
Easy accessible, garage parking.

I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Collins. He is knowledgeable, practical and effective. I have had him help me with multiple hand and wrist issues - arthritis, De Quervain's syndrome, and a broken wrist. He does not rush into surgery but rather, discusses all the alternatives with you. His bedside manner is amazing because he really cares about his patients. His staff is also fantastic - they recognize you, remember you and are very engaged in your care. I would give him and his team 10 stars if I could!

I have been Dr Collins patient for a while and I recommend him to anyone with hand issues. I got his name from a surgeon who was having issues with his hands... a frightening issue for a highly regarded surgeon who does micro surgery. My Doctor friend's ability to do surgery was at risk. There could not have been a better recommendation, Dr Collins is the surgeon's surgeon! I have seen Dr Collins several times for painful arthritis at the base of my thumb. Though surgery would be an option, and I was told by another Hand specialist in the Medical Center, that I had to have surgery on both thumbs, I am getting pain relief from the cortisone injections that I get, on average, once a year. Dr Collins, though one of the most highly respected hand surgeons in Houston, is not scalpel happy and if possible he will help you avoid surgery. I have been so pleased with Dr Evan Collins, he is always very friendly and never rushes during his treatments. He is happy to answer any questions you might have about treatment. On top of that... his staff is wonderful. If you listen to his recommendation for treatment and follow his advice, you will do well with Dr Collins.

Took me longer to get to the doctor’s office (got lost in the parking garage elevator)
Got to my appointment on time and waited about 30 minutes to see Dr Collins. His staff is very professional and friendly
Dr Collins took enough time answering my questions and less than a minute to take care of my trigger thumb ,
I will recommend this place

Called his office on a Friday after having a bad experience elsewhere. Got in early Monday morning and had surgery scheduled for that Thursday. Staff was great, he was great, and the surgery went better than I thought it would.

I arrived at Dr Collins office this morning, the Receptionist reassured me, told me he had coffee, I was in a great deal of pain. For over a year thinking how in the world do I get better..
Dr Collins came in and told me I have Arthritis, clearly not a good case- as I wanted to get relief and said yes let’s do this he was very calm and talking to me be for I knew it I had a shot in the effected area- then repeat! For both thumbs! I’m already feeling better range of motion has increased! His assistant was wonderful, as they see you on your Worst day! Not fun for pain to dictate your life!! Thank you Dr Collins and your amazing Assistant, you made me feel welcome and reassured

My experience with Dr. Collins and his staff is always remarkable! Dr. Collins is absolutely one of the most compassionate and competent surgeons I have ever encountered. He listens intently to ones concerns and addresses them. Dr. Collins compassion and caring for his patients is amazing, making one feel comfortable in moments of need. My concern this time was chronic tennis elbow. Injection therapy had not been successful and he turned to a minor, in office procedure called TENEX. This was a super minimally invasive procedure done right there and gave almost immediate and lasting relief from a condition that has been persistent for quite some time. I am heartfully grateful for the care and treatment Dr. Collins has provided. He has also treated other members of my immediate family for various hand conditions over the years and they all concur with my glowing reviews of him.

Best experience with visiting a new physician ever. The staff especially Altrese and Victor were so incredibly supportive. Dr. Collins and his team were compassionate, efficient and very knowledgeable. A rarity these days. Thank you.

I suffered from tennis elbow after providing care for my father and Dr. Collins started treatment and after a few months he recommended the Tenex procedure and the results have been amazing!
Dr. Collins and his team are exceptional, compassionate, and professional! I would recommend them without hesitation! Bravo!

I have been working with the PA I believe to be Garrett, I had the opportunity to call Dr. Collins regarding some new and different issues and I was referred to the physicians assistant Garrett to follow up on my issues. Garrett has been outstanding in his communication, extremely professional and a man of his word. I want to ensure that Garrett is recognized for his services and timely follow-up. On a score of five out of five I’d give Garrett a tan. Extremely professional, knowledgeable yet concerned that he get exact information from Dr. Collins. I will be following up with a new appointment as a result of my contact with the PA named Garrett. Garrett is recognized for his services and timely follow-up. On a score of five out of five I give Garrett a 10. Extremely professional, knowledgeable yet concerned that he get exact information from Dr. Collins. I will be following up with a new appointment as a result of my contact with the PA named Garrett. thank you so much to Methodist with your superior service but also with Dr. Collins office and his PA named Garrett. I continue to receive outstanding support from Dr. Collins office. I would not want to do any appointments with anybody but Methodist hospital as I really appreciate the tool (MY CHART) and the availability to enter And see my most recent Appointments and test results. Methodist is the best by far I would not change my service or support to anybody else except for Methodist Hospital. Positively a 5 out of 5, I would give Garrett a score of six out of five for the way he has conducted his physicians communication and follow up. Thanks so much to Dr. Collins office and the professional assistance that the “PA” GARRET has provided.
