Review for Dr. King
I've been seeing Dr. Eckert since 1999. The staff just seems to get more and more pleasant. Dr. Eckert is extremely knowledgable and I trust her completely. I don't know what I'll ever do if she decides to retire!

Review for Dr. Eckert
I recommend Dr. Whitaker to everyone! New in this area, I had to find a doctor. Finding Dr. Whitaker was wonderful! She’s caring, and listens to me. Goes over my labs, tests, etc. always asking if I had questions. She’s a very understanding doctor. We have found our physician and cannot be more...
