Very competent and sensitive to my questions
Swedish Patient
Dr White is such a knowledgeable, thorough, and talented surgeon. The preliminary testing was thorough and appropriate. His repair of my hiatal hernia and LINX implant was managed with care by both him and his care team. The post-operative struggles I have had were listened to and addressed carefully. My quality of life has improved dramatically.

Dr White made me feel comfortable and took time to talk and explain what all had to be done for the reason I saw him. I appreciated that so much.
