This appointment was for my four month old son. Dr. Whaley is and always has been fantastic. We love him very much!

Since I was extremely sick, and was taken VERY GOOD CARE OF, for this visit, I have very little complaint! from Dr Whaley, to Desiree, to the other nurses that I can't remember, they treated me like I was the only patient there.

Dr. Whaley and his nurses always give outstanding care. The office staff is less than desirable, as they always are.

Dr Whaley is a very good doctor and I would recommend him to any person I talk to. The office visits are always prompt. All of the staff are polite and professional.
September 3, 2014Todd L.Verified patient
Dr. Whaley listens to me better than most other doctors I have ever had. His professionalism, attention to detail, and personality is why I still drive over 2 hours to go see him at Colonial. I like that their practice can do almost everything on site that is needed for him to do his best job at fixing my health problems. I trust Dr. Whaley explicitely.
August 20, 2014Roy M.Verified patient
I admire and trust Dr Whaley completely. He has been my doctor for many years now and I know that he is not just "out for the money" but he is one of those doctors that sincerely cares for his patients. It's hard to find a doctor like him these days. I can't imagine ever seeing a different doctor.
August 6, 2014Donna F.Verified patient
My visit was efficient and thorough as always. I think that Dr.Whaley is the best general practitioner. I have and will continue to recommend others to see him.
