Great Doctor
I always appreciate visiting Dr. Whitesell. She has a way of explaining things that make it easy to understand.
Very kind and caring.
Knowledgeable patient and followed through on finding information asked of her.
Dr Whitesell did a great job on my surgery follow up. Very personable, knowledgeable, and answered my questions in very clear lay terms. Highly recommend!
Great
As a first time patient with her, I did not feel she had my best interest at heart. The staff spent more time chatting with me taking my information than she did. She examined me and read off info from the instruments/equipment used and some guy put it into the computer. I felt rushed and that she brushed off my concerns.
Very good really like my dr. Great place they take very good care of my eyes.
Dr Whitesell is always prompt and thorough with explaining things
Nice. Professional. Helpful.
