Patient Reviews
Mar 01, 2019
Dr Whitworth is carying and highly knowledgeable physian. He performed a colonoscopy on our 14 year and diagnosed famial adenmatosis polyposis. This inherited disease and the diagnosis was very frightening. Dr Whitworth was quick to tell us that there were measures to be taken that while they have not been easy to endure I am happy to say that my granddaughter is doing well and was correctly diagnosed. I highly recommend Dr Whitworth and we will continue to see him yearly.
