"My first impression of Dr.Whittwell was good and over time the impression just improved with how well he guided me thru this process. The office is well run by Dr. Whittwells daughter and wife very proffesionally run.Yes he emphasizes after care very strictly. Yes he did address the risks of surgery. I would rate him overall as excellent.I have refered several people to him already. I would rate both great he surgical competence, and bedside manner."
