Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Whitesides is an excellent doctor, on my first visit with him he never once rushed the visit and spent good quality time with me. He explained everything in great detail and I left knowing I had just seen the perfect doctor for me.

He is super! He really cares about his patients. Thinks outside the box. Not a pill pusher.

Waited approximately 15 minutes in waiting room. Waited approximately another 45 minutes to see the nurse. Then saw the doctor who stated my condition would require a Urologist (him) & a general surgeon. No one within the practice (doctor nor any of the nurses) were willing to identify a general surgeon from the online list available.
