Russell A. White's Online Review Report Card

The worst, non-compassionate human being and doctor I have ever met. I was in excruciating, tearful pain due to an infection at 35 weeks, causing major contractions. His examination of my cervix was rough and fast, and his delivery of next steps was sarcastic and condescending. I will never deliver my baby at Beebe and I will be leaving the practice he is associated with immediately. He also felt ...

Georgetown location in Delaware: Had me drive down for an IUD without anyone letting me know the preparations needed for the procedure. He ended up refusing to preform the procedure understandably, but there was absolutely no empathy shown to me towards my wasted time.

Georgetown location in Delaware: Had me drive down for an IUD without anyone letting me know the preparations needed for the procedure. He ended up refusing to preform the procedure understandably, but there was absolutely no empathy shown to me towards my wasted time. A vacation day and 5 hours in the car to get to the office, something I had informed the front desk about, and the doctor didn't even have the common curtesy to speak to me directly and apologize for the miscommunication. He communicated through a very unfriendly nurse. I had just had a tumor removed most likely due to the birth control I was on, and the IUD non hormonal was something that finally was going to reduce the anxiety of developing another one. Now due to miscommunication I will continue to have to have that anxiety and risk for however much longer to come.

Today was my first and last visit with dr. White. First he proceeded to unprofessionally talk bad about the doctor that delivered my son after I told him how much I loved the doctor and wish she was still practicing. Then he followed up with I'm surprised he didn't get on a plane and return to Pakistan as a comment about the doctor which I found very racist. This was my first visit with him and I am 10 weeks pregnant he told me he was trying to use the Doppler to hear the baby's heartbeat because he wasn't very good at using the ultrasound. He didn't have any luck finding a heartbeat with the Doppler so then he proceeded to try to use the ultrasound and struggled to even find the baby. We got a quick glimpse not long enough for him to get the baby's heart rate or check on it. Quite honestly it was a waste of a doctor's appointment. I will never see this doctor again.

very terrible seems like he don't know what he's doing at all he don't care how much pain he puts u in he says it's normal not to have a bowel movement for 3 weeks I do not recommend

Issued birth control to a first time client without any examination. Would highly recommend AVOIDING!

I had him for my whole second pregnancy and some of my third. He was not very talkative and seemed to never know what was going on such as scheduling me for things I had already done. I had brought up with him three different times of an infection that he never did anything about. He ended up retiring while I was pregnant with my second and did not even give any notice, I found out the day of my appointment he was retiring and that would be the last time he would see me. I have to say him retiring was probably a good thing, I have a much better doctor now.

Dr. White was my doctor for my last two pregnancies. my last ended with a c- section. I really did not want to have a c-section, but it was necessary and I feel that the right decision was made. My first baby was born by an unnecessary c-section, then I had three vbacs. So, with my last, after 12 years I knew a lot about how csections are done WAY too much. Dr. White was a blessing because I trusted his decision and knew he wanted the best for me. He was very respectful of me as a Catholic and my choice not to use any artificial birth control. He did not talk down to me, but treated me and my husband very respectfully. My husband just ran into him last week at the hospital, and Dr. White remembered him and talked to him for a good ten minutes. This doctor is a good doctor.

I can't comment as to his practice now but I saw Dr. White 7 years ago in PA when I was pregnant with my first son. He delivered my child and his demeanor was very calm and quiet. I liked him. My only complaint would be his insistence that I take the birth control pill after I delivered. He argued with me a bit over that. I didn't want to take it because I have breast cancer in my family and also because I am pro-life and it clashes with my values. I am not against contraception I just don't like the pill and he got very annoyed and pushy with me. Other than that I thought he was a caring and attentive physician.
