Testimonials
Feedback from our patients
“I have been a patient of Dr. Whapshare since 2015. I have found him to be an excellent listener, and never felt rushed during appointments. He takes the time to explain his diagnoses, and readily considers lifestyle changes alongside medication when proposing treatment. I would recommend Dr. Whapshare to anyone seeking a professional, reliable, and caring family doctor.”
“I've been seeing Dr. Whapshare for six years. Routine visits have been a pleasure, and I appreciate his use of simple plain language when translating medical and anatomical terminology. Whenever I've needed his services, he's been quick to respond with advice, medication, and, when necessary, referrals. I would wholeheartedly recommend Dr. Whapshare to anyone seeking a dynamic and down-to-earth family doctor.”
“Dr. Whapshare is an incredible doctor and a wonderful human being. He is knowledgeable and informative. He is very understanding and actually listens to your concerns. He not only treats the patient, but in my case, fielded calls from my family during my husband's last days. I am very grateful to him and his staff. They are absolutely the best.”
“When I retired to Florida my biggest concern was finding a primary physician. I come from a small Connecticut town where your primary physician is your touchstone. A family doctor who returns all calls, answers questions without making the patient feel inadequate, is patient and kind and makes recommendations based on need, taking age into consideration but not treating it like a disease. Add the dry humor the English are famous for and you have Gavin Whapshare.
Venice is lucky to have him.”
“We were very fortunate to find Dr. Whapshare as our family physician when we moved to Venice 3 years ago. He is extremely professional and really spends the necessary time to understand your symptoms and recommend the right treatment. We have never had to wait long for an appointment and he goes out of his way to see you quickly. We feel very comfortable talking to him about anything as he is very amenable and caring. The office is very well run and the patient experience is very good. I highly recommend Dr. Whapshare if you need a family doctor.”
“For me it was much better than going to another doctor for a second opinion. I appreciate the time and detail paivd to my condition.”
