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.

very rude, wont answer questions. Has a horrible bedside manner. After 4 surgeries and over 3 months, my brother in law is still sick. so somewhere else!!!!

Dr. Whiteley and Dr. Walker are both excellent surgeons. While I did have complications involving hernias after my bowel resection, I have enough faith in them to go back tomorrow and let them repair the hernias. From what I have read, hernias after such a procedure are fairly common. I do not own this against them at all. They do seem to be in a bit of a rush at times, I have full confidence in their abilities. I'm not trying to let you know how the irony of surgery goes once I am out.

Seen him on a Monday and had surgery that Thursday. He was straight forward and to the point about what needed to be done to resolve my condition. And he was right, I feel great!
