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.

More than Disappointed
Not good, when questioned Dr Whitney why had a stroke he got offended and dropped me as a patient. I had been seeing for several years found that when recently had second stroke that I hadn't received blood test to monitor for a year and a half, however he kept changing and adding medications without the blood test. Then I requested medical records October 28, 2024 to be sent to my new family Dr to find out today that Dr. Whitney had received the request but never sent my records so the Dr. who needed them could diagnose me properly. Had to constantly update my medication list every 3 months at each visit when he was the one to prescribe the medications. Unsure why but felt others should know my experience while seeking a new physician

I am 76 years old and dr Whitney is one of the best doctors I’ve ever had. Don’t let his picture fool you. He looks young but is a great doctor. I’ve recommended several people to him and this is something I don’t normally do

Dr. Whitney answers calls promptly. In the office he spends as much time as necessary talking with you and understanding your problem. A very competent and caring doctor.
