Patient Review by Hannah L

Dr. Whitman is the most talented jaw surgeon you will ever meet. He is very attentive and cares about his patients well being and goals. I had both of my jaws done upper and lower when I was 17 years old in 2013. I had the surgery when I was in high school. Needing both jaw done is rare and I was scared to say the least. I am now 25 and Dr.Whitman changed my life for the better and I don’t say that lightly. Initially when I met him I was beyond scared to get the surgery. I was in braces the third time and we tried everything to fix my bite to avoid surgery. However I was born with a bony jaw and was having severe TMJ pain at such a young age. Dr. Whitman explained to me everything about the surgery and addressed any issues and concerns I had beforehand. He also checked in often after the procedure and follow up. Before getting the surgery if you decide to get it Dr. Whitman will tell you everything you need to know. Getting surgery was the last option for me. I needed the surgery because of pain and none of my teeth met. My orthodontist and dentist told me that I would not have teeth by the time I would be 30 years old. I could only use 15 percent of my bite due to all the space and only 4 teeth meeting in the back. My parents and I tried everything to fix it so getting this surgery truly was the only way to fix it. I could not have asked for a better doctor than Dr. Whitman. I have not seen him in a long time but I hope to stop by one day to tell him thank you for everything he has done for me and my family. I would highly recommend Dr. Whitman for anyone looking for a phenomenal doctor who has the experience and cares for his patients like no other. He is the person to go to, he knows what he is doing and his record speaks for itself. I will forever be grateful for the impact he made on my life. Now I have a confident smile and no jaw issues. Dr. Whitman is the surgeon to go to he is the best of the best. Now looking at my pictures I get emotional because if I hadn’t met Dr. Whitman or went to a doctor who didn’t have the expertise that he has it could have been a very different outcome . I will forever be grateful to Dr. Whitman and the staff for helping me get through one of the toughest surgeries I’ve had in my life. I am happy I decided to go through with it. If you are someone like me who has and needs a lot of work done on your teeth this is the place to go to for any of your needs. I talk about Dr. Whitman to anyone I know if they are looking for a jaw surgeon. He truly is a doctor you can trust that will take care of you and help you from the moment you walk into the office.
