My impression of Dr. Winkle was that he was very brusque, impatient, and rushed. He seemed to want to get out of the exam room as quickly as possible. That isn't really the mentality I want for someone treating my child. If at all possible, we will not be seeing him again.
I wish specialist choices in Alaska were not so limited. Maybe we will try to see one of his partners and hope for better.

Alaska Children's EYE & Strabismus exemplifies many of the problems that vex our health care system in the United States.
1. Deceptive/Incoherent billing: They don't work with certain insurance companies but will fail to disclose this before scheduling an appointment or performing service.
2. Exorbitant pricing: A cursory survey of pricing around Anchorage reveals that there are wildly differing prices for the same services. This office is one of the most expensive but they don't do anything different than anyone else. Rather, they have certain types of professionals there who may or may not be involved with your service but the very fact that they work there inflates prices.
3. Charges without consent: This office placed a $97.00 charge on my bill and claimed it was part of a different service. No consent was given to any other services.
It's time the public held medical professionals to account for their shady business practices. There are plenty of other places in Anchorage to visit. Do not give them your business.

Dr. Winkle is the best. The kids love him. He knows his stuff and has been very helpful working with our kids and their rare eye disorders. The entire office is great, but Winkle is #1

My 8 year old daughter recently had eye surgery with Dr. Winkle to correct double vision (crossed eyes) that she was having issues with. After a few visits, they determined that surgery was the only option to correct her vision. We are so THANKFUL she had the surgery done. It was quick and she bounced back to normal the next day! She is happier, more confident and like a new kid after her surgery!
Everyone at the surgery center was amazing as well. Dr. Winkle made her comfortable at each visit and was very thorough!
We were seen quickly and all of our questions answered in the office and over the phone. So happy to have been referred to this office!
