- March 28, 2022 Dr. Whyte is a good doctor and takes good care of me. He's thorough, kind, and seems to care about me as a patient. Perhaps I'm from the "old school", but sometimes I think you can tell more about a person by looking directly at them as you speak to them, instead of typing on the computer so much. I liked it better when the doctors talked to you directly while in the room, and then, after the appointment, record their thoughts and facts to a recording machine. Either way gets the job done, but one is more personal than the other.
