Patient Reviews
Jan 20, 2025
Dr. Whitaker, Jr. gave excellent patient service by providing a thorough eye exam during my appointment time. He shared explanations and used the latest tools and technologies in his office to assist with determining the best opinion and diagnosis. He made me feel safe and reduced my anxiety by his soft spoken kind demeanor and wealth of knowledge that was shared.
