Dr. Pinnock grew up in the beautiful parish of St. Ann on the island of Jamaica, moving to New Jersey when she was a teen. In her free time, she loves spending time outdoors, going on walks with her husband, and gardening. Dr. Pinnock also enjoys music – both singing and dancing. Being relatively new to the Central Texas area, she looks forward to exploring the area – and enjoying Texas barbeque!
Dr. Pinnock performs screenings and procedures at:
I have always been interested in medicine, even as a child, but I really decided to become a doctor after my grandmother passed away due to complications of colon cancer. Unfortunately, as sometimes happens in Jamaica, she did not fully understand the implications of her diagnosis and treatment, nor did her family have the information to help make decisions about her care. That experience motivated me to go on to medical school and a Gastroenterology specialty. My practice is centered around communication and care, providing my patients with information to make an informed decision as I listen to their concerns. I treat each patient with the care and attention I would want for my family.
