Dr. Whitaker is a very smart and caring doctor. She always greets you with a smile and hug. I have been her patient for over 2 years. She listens to your concerns, she is thorough, explains your health issues and makes recommendations of how to treat you. I have many allergies and health problems and she will refer you to specialists when necessary. I’ve never had a doctor that is so concerned about me, as an individual, like Dr. Whitaker. She goes the extra mile. She truly is a jewel!!!
I have been a patient for a few years and feel like Dr. Whitaker and her staff have gotten sloppy with their promptness. It takes many days to get prescription refills and it took 2 weeks to get my results for an echocardiogram which she had the results the day after i had the test. I feel there is much room for improvement on their patient communications and promtness.
SHE IS VERY PRECISE AND CARING
I have been dr. Whitaker's patient for almost three years. She is very compassionate, warm dr., who excels in the field of medicine. I am grateful to have her as my primary care dr. RCFS
The office is nice, but the nurses are rude. The nurse who comes in with the computer is very rude and doesn't listen. The minimum wait time to see the doctor is 1 hour - always. I have waited two hours before. When she finally comes in, she's very rushed and does not listen to your questions. She will tell you that you are wrong and act like you're being a hypochondriac. By doing that, she misdiagnosed a serious illness I had. Her PA also incorrectly diagnosed me twice. Don't risk your health.
Love Dr Whitaker and her staff. She is warm and greets with a smile and a hug. I feel she is very thorough and feel very confident as her patient! Waiting time is short and you will be seen pretty quickly. The only time you will be there for a couple hours if usually on the first visit.
I had to change doctors after Dr. Whitaker refused to accept clear test results indicating that I do not have stage 4 kidney disease according to a specialist in kidney disease, blood work, and a sonogram! This is important because it affects the medicine I can or cannot take. . . namely Metformin for Type 2 diabetes, which I need. Not only was she very rude, but embarrassed me by leaving the "private" room's door open for everyone to hear her loud scolding. Big ego in my opinion!
Best dr ever, actually cares, prescribe the right meds to help me! Staff is incredible!
The office itself is nice. The wait time for her is horrible. She is does many unnecessary tests for conditions you already see a specialist for. I didn't think it was appropriate to compare my heath concerns with the people she just got back from treating in( Afghanistan! !). Her number 1 person that comes in with the computer is worthless. Several things get lost in translation by the time the Dr. Even comes in the room. I wasn't impressed with her bedside manor.
