I have been a patient of Dr. Whitfield's for the past 18 to 20 years. And there is nobody I would rather see with an orthopedic issue than him.

I have known this Dr. since he did sugery on Mama's toes - about 1980 or so. I had to see him about six months ago. I don't know when I've met a finer man. He is kind, caring, compassionate and a gentle man, as well as a gentleman! Am about to go visit him again and I know I'll get the same pleasant man with the kind smile again. My Mama still raves about his kind and caring ways! I can't argue with her! She's on the money! Thank you, Dr. Whitfield! Ila
