Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Dr. Wheatley has done multiple surgeries for me and has always shown great care, compassion, and concern. He is very thorough and does not rush to do surgery first. He makes sure everything else is ruled out before doing anything invasive. I highly recommend him to anyone.

I would highly recommend Dr Wheatley. He performed my hysterectomy in November. This being my first major surgery I was really nervous. I couldn't have asked for a more compassionate and caring doctor to be taking care of me. I am so thankful to had Dr Wheatley as my doctor making sure everything was healing like it should have been post op. He is a wonderful doctor!!

Dr. Wheatley recently did a partial hysterectomy on me and there was minimal pain and a short down time. I was able to return to work after three weeks. He has great bedside manners and truly cares about his patients. He listens to all issues and concerns that you have.

Dr Wheatley and his staff have been seeing myself and my daughters for over 10 years. When I needed a hysterectomy that he felt was too risky to be provided locally he referred me to Chapel Hill to a former student of his. My daughters drive from Charlotte for their annual exams instead of finding someone knew because they, like I trust the judgement of the Doctor and his staff. I would recommend them to anyone.

Dr. Wheatley did a full hysterectomy March 2017. I was having severe pain. He took great care and concern in trying to find the source of my pain. He took his time answering all my questions and showed me he cared about me. He and his staff is the best. I am 5 weeks post op. He is taking his time making sure I am healing and that I am doing well. His patients are very important to him and is concerned about their well being. I am very blessed to have him as my Dr.

Dr Wheatley performed an ablasion October, 2015 due to extreme gynecological pain and discomfort and performed the surgery with great patient care, concern and attention. He took the time to make me feel more than a patient and spent countless hours following up to ensure how the post operative care was proceeding. Approximately 6 weeks prior to this posting he performed a partial hysterectomy, where multiple fibroids were found. His level of care, concern and skill is unmatched. Blessed for him
