The service was conducted in a timely
He is an outstanding doctor. I have and will recommend him to others.
Always liked him. Very good at his job & easy to talk to
I was in the office today for injections. Dr. Whitten is extremely kind and professional. While pain injections are never fun, Dr. Whitten is very good at getting your mind off the obvious situation with his manner and conversations.
Great he listened to my problems and helped with me with solutions. Was wonderful and nice to talk with.
The staff have all been wonderful and listen to problems and concerns with health issues. We are still working to find the right solution for the pains my mother in law is having, but each time we come back in they have a way to tweak medications and try a different injection that will help increase the efficacy of the other injections.
Dr Whitten and his whole staff listens and doesn’t give up on getting you relief. I like their multi disciplinary approaches.

Wonderful Dr., he listens to my concerns, I had my procedures done prior to April 2024 and then had the ablation done to my nerves. We’re gonna do that again the saw stems from a fall in October 2024 Dr.
Very caring and professional.
Extremely quick procedure and awesome relief from pain.
I was very nervous going into get injections. They gave me a Valium to relax me, which did help. It went really smooth, just felt some pressure. This morning I got up and could hardly walk. My back hurts worse today than before the injection!
Dr. Is very personable during very stressful discussions. He takes the time to explain very complex and scary procedures with calmness and patience. He been very responsive to my questions and concerns during this difficult process. I’m looking forward to working with him throughout this difficult time.Of course much rather not have to go through this at all but since I have to I’m glad that he’s my Dr.
