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.

Process has been very simple.
Once I've had the initial visit to discuss if a labral reconstruction was needed, which that visit was very simple to understand and every step involved was fully explained, to the beginnings of my recovery, I've felt what could and maybe should be a difficult procedure to prepare for and begin recovering from has been extremely simple feeling with very little stress from the medical side of this adventure. I have been given so much support and information that answers many of my questions; I don't think I've really have any.

Loved him so much I had both hips done!
I felt like a person not a number. Dr White listened and answered all my questions and concerns honestly. His entire team took such great care of me with my first surgery in October I came back from NC to do the second hip in April! I strongly believe he is the best so why go anywhere else.

Good Surgeon, Bad Bedside Manner
Great surgeon, not a great doctor. God complex, rude, judgmental and LATE! He 'fired' me for calling him out on his wait times, as if his time was more important than mine and in fact shared with me that his time WAS more important than my own and told me to never come back.

Experienced, caring and attentive
I would recommend Dr. White to anyone who has hip issues. He had a great understanding and a lot of experience with my genetic connective tissue disorder that required me to have a labral reconstruction and teres ligament reconstruction. He is very knowledgeable, attentive and experienced, and the only person I trusted to do this surgery for me. I will be seeing him again to do my other hip again in the future. He and his team were very informative, and gave me a lot of information and support pre and post op. Dr. White is very well spoken, has a great bedside manner, is most importantly, is very knowledgeable in his expertise. I felt like I was in great hands. He is giving me hope for a better future, and I am so grateful.

Hip Problems - Must see Dr. White!
Dr. White has a very comforting manner, explains procedures thoroughly. From my first appointment to 2 weeks post-op the communication and patient education far exceeded any I had experienced from past doctors. He and his staff work together be ensure you are prepared for your procedure as well as what to expect afterwards. Would definitely recommend Dr. White to anyone experiencing hip pain!

Kind, Organized, Efficient
Dr. White preformed my hip scope surgery and I am so grateful for his kindness, organization, and efficiency. Dr. White made everything incredibly easy to understand even before my procedure and was very communicative with my family during. After my procedure, he came with binder and explained everything that he found, what he did during the surgery, and how it all turned out. Both before and after the surgery, he uses a system that helps to prepare you in detail and then follow up with you on discharge instructions. This is so nice, since it can be easy to forget some of the many details. Above and beyond this, Dr. White is so kind and truly shows that he genuinely cares about his work and helping you feel better!

Skilled and caring
Dr. White is the most caring surgeon I have met and is the best at what he does. I’m early in the rehab process, but at 2 weeks after labral reconstruction and LT reconstruction, I’m already able to ride in cars and sit in chairs which used to be painful. I’m very hopeful for the progress to come.

He Gave Me My Life Back
Dr white and his team was exceptionally wonderful. They all have an vast understanding of the process and procedures. There was not once I was ill informed about anything happening. Dr white took my case even though it’s not the worse, I was not an easy fix. I’m only 2 weeks post op, off pain meds and for the first time in 5 years…my hip doesn’t hurt. Sure my leg is sore but my hip itself feels great!! I’m beyond excited of the possibility I can not only return to paramedic but pursue my dream of Firefighter and ER Physician down the road. I am beyond thankful for Dr White and quite frankly all of his amazing crew.

Outstanding orthopedic surgeon
In the past few years, I experienced severe hip, groin, knee & shooting pain into my foot, with both hips. I had the first R hip labral reconstruction performed by Dr. White in 2022. I was stunned that after severe groin & knee pain, the surgery totally removed ALL of it. This past year, after shredding my L meniscus, I also had 6 mos. of relentless & intense pain in the L groin, charging thru my knee & into my foot. I hoped that surgery would help, but suspected it wouldn't resolve all of my pain. However, I was wrong. Following Dr. White's L labral reconstruction surgery this past week, the pain is gone...all of it. I can't recommend Dr. White enough.

Exceptional Surgeon, Exceptional Support
Dr. White is exceptionally skilled but also exceptionally professional and caring, a rarity in a surgeon of his caliber. He never rushed me at any of our appointments, took extra time to address my concerns and answer all my questions. He has an excellent support staff that are very responsive and knowledgeable. He does everything possible to set you up for success with his surgery. He even has a check in system in place that makes sure you have all you need leading up to and after surgery and that you know what you need to look out for and what to do. I never once felt alone or unsupported before or after my surgery with him. I went home with a professional binder of all my surgical info and images and physical therapy protocols(which he personally went over with me in detail the day after my surgery in the hospital). Very grateful to have had my surgery with such a skilled and caring surgeon. Could not recommend him enough!

Dr. Is dedicated to his profession. He is very thorough in explaining the procedure and everything that the process entails. Not only is he professional with patients, all the nurses speak highly of his professionalism, dedication and demeanor. If there is a doctor to choose, it would be Dr. White. I don't typically do reviews, but this one is well deserved. Thank you Dr. White!

Love Dr. White
I have had 2 hip surgeries done by Dr. White and he is meticulous about his work and very thorough. He explains what he is going to do and after surgery gives you a notebook with everything you need in it for post surgery, even photos and a flash drive of your procedure. His office staff for surgery scheduling was great and his website is very informative and helpful. I highly recommend Dr. White.

Amazing Doctor
Dr. White is a very meticulous doctor, striving for the best care for his patients. He takes the time to really make sure you get the care you need. I was in the hospital longer than intended due to no fault of my surgeon Dr. White and he made sure to check on me everyday making sure I was recovering and getting the best care I could. Hands down the best doctor I have ever had the pleasure of working with. I highly recommend him to anyone who is having any hip issues as he will do everything in his power to make sure you are well taken care of.

Absolutely Amazing
Dr. White and his direct staff are professional and attentive. My surgery was fit in during a very busy time of year. My preoperative care and communication was excellent. My surgery went well with minimum reaction and fast healing. My pain level has been manageable without opiates (past the first 5 days) or other addictive substances which is important to me. I was disappointed in my post-operative care at the hospital but that is on the hospital and staff, not Dr. White and his team. The post-operative out patient follow-up and care has been excellent so far.
