Patients appreciate
Dr. William White consistently receives exceptional praise from patients for his thorough, caring, and professional approach to eye care. Patients repeatedly highlight his willingness to take time with them, never rushing appointments and ensuring they fully understand their eye health conditions and treatment options. His communication skills are frequently commended, with reviewers noting he explains complex medical information in clear, understandable terms and actively encourages questions. Patients appreciate his attentive listening, his genuine concern for their wellbeing, and his collaborative approach to decision-making, often discussing options rather than dictating treatment. His friendly, personable demeanor puts patients at ease, and many describe him as knowledgeable, kind, and compassionate. The professionalism and courtesy of his support staff also receive consistent positive mentions.
Patients also share
The reviews reveal very few areas for improvement. One patient noted Dr. White was 30 minutes late to their appointment, and another mentioned a long wait time, though these appear to be isolated incidents. One reviewer expressed a wish that Dr. White performed surgical procedures himself rather than referring patients to specialists, though this reflects the scope of optometry practice rather than a service deficiency. A single patient mentioned minor confusion when a technician provided inaccurate information about their glasses, which Dr. White later clarified. One reviewer commented they would prefer if he pulled his long hair back, representing a minor personal preference rather than a care quality issue.
