Testimonials from patients of Dr. DeAtkine

from Barbara in AL March 9, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

WHO IS THIS MYSTERY MAN IN THE WHITE COAT?

1) Is he a detective, since he asks me lots of questions? (A few of which I don't like to answer)
2) Maybe he is a psychologist because he can sense when I am troubled. And unlike most doctors... I never feel rushed.
3) Certainly he is a scientist, since he is so adept at analyzing my physical state and offering solutions… See more

from Helen Claire in AL March 3, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

I met Dr. D when I owned a shop. He came in with his wife for Christmas cards and I told him I needed him as a doc but I heard his bedside manner was less than desirable. His wife fell in the floor laughing and then I became his patient some 15 or so years ago. BEST CHOICE EVER. He has seen me threw a few bad times. But most importantly he doesnt discount my aches and pains. He listens. The… See more

from Marianna in AL March 1, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

I have been a patient of Dr. DeAtkine, for many years and have always held him in the highest esteem. He is one of the most considerate,if not the most considerate, doctors I have ever been in contact with. If there is a new med that he feels will be better for me there is no hesitation at all in taking this step. The kindnesses of both he and his staff will always be remembered by myself… See more
