Dr. White was with my husband and I’s two pregnancies and births. He brought us so much joy and comfort- and truly got to know us. We love him and are incredibly grateful for his wonderful care.
Dr. White was my OB for my 2nd pregnancy and I have the most respect for him. My first pregnancy went terrible and I had the worst care which ended with them never listening to me and my concerns and I gave birth 10 weeks premature. When we decided to have another baby I did my research and met with other OB’s but they were not the right fit for me and ultimately went with Dr. white. Our anxiety was through the roof as I would be high risk due to the complications in my first pregnancy so I wanted an OB who would hear me. I used to be a RN at st. Mary’s and heard nothing but amazing things! We live an hour away in Rifle and he was more than worth the drive! After our first appt. At just 9 weeks pregnant I remember crying knowing he was going to listen to me, he would do everything he could to get me to full term and if I needed reassurance about anything, he would do anything to give me that peace and confidence in my pregnancy. He became a huge part of our story and forever will be. With all of the extra monitoring we found out what had went wrong in my first pregnancy was also happening and he personally came in on his day off to perform an emergency procedure on me. He is THE BEST, most knowledgeable, personable, genuine, trustworthy Doctor. I never had to advocate for myself with him- he advocated for me the way a doctor should and was always one step ahead in taking care of us. He makes his patients feel heard and seen. I could go on and on about him. Truly a hero, a physician that many should look up to and without him, women’s health and care will not be the same- it will be such a loss!
Dr.White was my OBGYN while I was pregnant with my baby and helped me get through a ton of my worries and explained all of the issues I had so well that I got through them and around them! I would love the chance to see him again when we plan for our second!
If it weren’t for Dr White I might not have my baby. He helped me work out some fertility issues, was willing to listen and problem solve and he genuinely cared. After 5 miscarriages he helped me get pregnant with my now 9 month old baby girl. Dr. White is NEEDED in the Mesa Valley Community, we can’t lose doctors like him.
Dr White is the best OBGYN in Grand Junction. His schedule is constantly completely full (because everyone knows he’s the best) and yet he always manages to make time for his patients. Dr White supported my desire for a natural twin delivery and saved my baby and I from a traumatic emergency c section when Baby B decided he wasn’t interested in being born. A lesser Dr would have immediately put me under for surgery, but thanks to Dr White’s years of experience and incredible ability to stay calm in any situation, he was able to deliver my baby safely. He is the biggest medical asset we have in Grand Junction and our valley would desperately miss him!
Dr white has made a HUGE Difference in the care I’ve received in the western slope. He is the most caring and kind Dr I’ve ever come across. It would be so so sad to see him not stay!
