I haven't had the test yet that Dr. White prescribed for me. But have never had a problem with any of the doctors not getting back to me as soon as tests come back. I travel across the mountains from Eastern Washington to go to Swedish Issaquah because of the great care I get from the doctors. Would not go anywhere else!!

Dr White was very concerned with my issue and offered a solution to it.

Dr White spent time listening to me. Then he asked specific questions before making his recommendations. I appreciate his candor and his suggestions for me going forward.
Swedish Patient
Dr. White saw me on an accelerated timeline. He met me in the waiting room and roomed me himself. He could not have been more professional or kind. He went over all aspects of my current medical condition in a thoughtful and understandable way. He responded favorably to questions and requests for clarification. Great doctor!
