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.

If I could give no stars I would Dr. Whiting is so unprofessional. My husband is in so much pain. It is difficult for him to be standing or sitting for a long time. We had a 10:40 appointment we drove from Palm Beach to Miami Gardens we arrived at 10:05 at 11 they called him and put us in an exam room and by 12:15 she still did not come into see my husband we told them that he was in a lot of pain and that we were going to leave and all they kept saying was she will be with you in 5 minutes. If we are late to a Doctors appointment we either get charged or we lose our appointment and have to sit and wait like a walk in well shouldn't it apply to doctors also. There time is precious well so is ours and especially when a patient is in pain.

Dr. Whiting is extremely knowledgeable and confident. Her honesty and expertise were very comforting. During my visit, I felt as if I was the only patient she had all day. That is not the norm these days and I am extremely greatful that I am under her care. I am confident that the care plan she has recomended will lead to a successful outcome and improve my quality of life.
