Patient Reviews
Mar 11, 2023
Dr. McWhorter has been my Gastroenterologists for 20 plus years and I couldn't ask for a better, Physician, but also a person who cares for people in general. Several years ago I asked for him to come check on my brother when who was in the hospital and although Dr. McWhorter is a stomach he diagnosed right away what was going on with my brother. Dr. McWhorter stayed on floor with us until a Neurologist could get there.
