Dr. White was a wonderful, caring, through and very knowledgeable physician. Sadly, he passed away in December, 2014. I cannot find another physician who comes close to offering the care Dr. White provided.
Description of Work: Dr. White was my Primary Care Physician since February, 2011, for routine, annual physicals and checkups.

Dr. White is my primary physician and I highly recommend him and his practice.
Description of Work: Relocated from out of state and wanted a Family Practice physician. Loved Dr. White from my first visit at which time my complete medical history was taken, annual physical appointment scheduled and all concerns were addressed. Dr. White also referred me to a great dentist as well as all the health providers I normally see on an annual basis. I am thankful to have found such a caring, knowledgeable physician with an outstanding staff. Shame on me for taking so long to share this info by just now completing my review.

I had the ultrasound which didn't show any problems so I consulted with the referred surgeon two different times and have decided to have a diagnostic laporoscopic procedure.
Description of Work: I saw Dr White regarding pain that had been present for about 8 Months. I called for an appointment and was given one within a week. He listened to what I had to say and offered suggestions on things I could do. Since this had been going on for so long he had an ultrasound scheduled and referred me to a surgeon. His office staff called me within several days with an appointment for the surgeon and the ultrasound. His response time is very reasonable and I am never kept waiting for weeks on end for help. He listens to me and doesn't make me feel stupid or rushed. His responses are to my level and very understandable. All of his staff are very kind and friendly.
