David Whiteman is a surgical god. At my initial consultation, we sat down and talked about my goals. He really listened to what I was saying, then he took some measurements, and we formulated a plan that was right for me. At this visit, I was most impressed with his level of professionalism. His office staff was bright, friendly, and unpretentious. You see, I had already had a consult with another Atlanta surgeon, and I had even scheduled surgery with her. During the time between that pre-op and surgery day, I had two friends tell me that they were not happy with their experiences with her. Even though she refused to refund my deposit, I cancelled, and I m so glad I did. Dr. Whiteman s consultation was on another level completely he and Beth (MA) were much more thorough, taking measurements, etc, which is something that the other surgeon never did. Until I met Dr. Whiteman, I was in the dark about what a real surgery consultation was supposed to be like. He thoroughly explained risks/benefits (rather than just having me read them on a tablet), told me what to expect through every phase, and when I left the appointment, I was confident that I had made the right decision in choosing him for my surgery. The operation went smoothly (at a small hospital with attentive staff), and I received the same level of care at my post-op visits as I did on day one. I knew precisely what to expect as I recovered, so there were never any grey areas of confusion. Now, six weeks later, I am LOVING my results. I feel that I look the way I am supposed to-- the way I told Dr. Whiteman I wanted to look. He gave me EXACTLY what I wanted, and I am so comfortable in my skin now. I am so happy that I chose Dr. Whiteman over the other surgeon. I would choose him again and again. He is a phenomenal surgeon, a good person, and also a really nice guy.
