The Physician led me through each statement that needed my consent or input. That made me feel like a participant in my own care.

Vivian Whitehead stepped in for my primary doctor since she was on leave and I had an amazing experience. Dr. Whitehead was very helpful and informative regarding the medications I was on and my concerns with them. She gave me advice for dieting and even listened to me about my side effects of my PCOS. I enjoyed the entire experience and am looking into switching to her care.
