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. Whitten is always, friendly, engaging and thorough. I've been seeing him 10+ years, even following him to a different practice. He listens and truly cares about me.

Have been seeing Dr. Whitten for a couple of years now and highly recommend for anyone looking for a new primary care physician. Super personable and genuine. An added bonus is that his new office and staff at Elite Family Medicine is much better than at previous practice.
