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.
I have been with Dr. Whitaker for over a year. Now the wait time in her office is over an hour. She does not bring with her paper, notebook, computer or pen when she is with you.
She was very informative and interested in solving my medical problems I brought up about myself
Thorough and seemed most patient-focused on my health considerations. Felt as though she cared about understanding my own situation and making prudent recommendations in a sensible and measured way. I prefer Doctors that are willing to discuss and explain various modalities, medications and ideas. She checked all of those boxes for me. I appreciated her style and approach very much.
She was horrible. Compared me with other patients instead of evaluating my situation and medical needs. She was dishonest and controlling. She also put me down for breastfeeding - she said I should only breast feed 6 months and it was not beneficial to breast feed after 6 months of age (which is not true at all). She only breast feed all 4 of her children 6 months each. I would NOT recommend anyone to this person.
