Super doc!
The best doctor ever!!
Always professional and personable.
Dr White is an awesome doctor. She is very thorough and caring in what she does. I can’t express enough of how much better I felt after seeing her. I would definitely recommend anyone to see her. She is amazing!
She is an awesome doctor, always makes the visit pleasant.
Dr White is always pleasant, helpful responsive and more than willing to answer questions. I would rate her a 5 in this regard. I don’t feel rushed when I am with her. I do suggest that she speak more slowly when she is communicating. I hear her well but don’t always understand the words she is saying. I guess I don’t hear and understand as fast as she speaks.
I need my meds to go to Public instead of Walgreens.
Always engaged with me and my health issues.
Thank you, Dr. White!
Definitely the very best physician.
