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.

Don't pass up
I was so impressed with the level of one-on-one care and expertise from Dr. Whitehead and his office staff. On the day of surgery, they dedicated the entire day and night to my care. I felt safe. The process was seemless from the initial consult. Dr. Whitehead is a highly trained surgeon and very loving.

Negative review
They originally quoted me 8,300 with blue cross blue shield I was ready to pay however they told me they had to wait for hospital availability so they made me wait a few months . They contact me again saying that the insurance they accept won’t work with them and I have it in writing that the insurance would cover everything from the insurance company with a 35 percent co pay for being out of network. However their insurance person at restore medical Rizwan says I need to now pay 15,000 for surgery because the insurance company won’t work with them to be reimbursed. Rizwan tells me that insurance will pay for the hospital fee even though my insurance is all set to go . I email Rizwan asking for specifics over the price increase and after 10 days of no response I ask to talk to management to find out they don’t have one it’s co owned by several surgeons so they have me talk to one of them I talk politely to them they ignore me and tell me to find a different surgon

Dr. John Whitehead is an caring and knowledgeable doctor. He had performed a re-circumcision for me and when we met for my consultation, he recommended a scrotal web reduction also. The anesthesiologist was Dr. Ramirez, and the surgery was performed the same day in his office at 1111 Kane Concourse, suite 311. The surgery took about two hours and I awoke with very little pain. I was well taken care of post-surgery. I highly recommend seeing Dr. Whitehead and am happy with the results!
