Doctor White was very thorough and never gaslit me or made me feel like he was rushing me. He provided a ton of information and asked a lot of questions and seemed determined to help me access whatever tests or care I need to resolve my GI issues. It has been over a year of dealing with discomfort and that appointment was the first time I had any hope or clarity.

I would like to thank Dr White and his entire team for their exceptional support. Without the expertise of this team - back to 2014, I am quite sure the quality of my life would be significantly changed. Thank you. I am extremely grateful. Mahalo and aloha.
