My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...
During my medical career, I have had the privilege of teaching the art of medicine to countless medical students, internal medicine residents and nephrology fellows; but I feel my most important contribution has been to educate and guide my patients through our complex health care system. I believe effective education leads to patient empowerment and is necessary for individual outcomes. It is my belief that maintaining a healthy lifestyle is a form of “treatment” and is often more effective than any medication or therapy I can prescribe. My goal is to help my patients lead active and healthy lives and emphasize the preventive services unique to our practice and MDVIP.
I am board-certified in Internal Medicine, Nephrology and Clinical Hypertension. I am detail-oriented by nature but understand the importance of the “big picture” when caring for patients. I want to get to know you as a person so that I may understand your goals. My goal is to provide care to you by applying my expertise in the context of a thoughtful, meaningful doctor-patient relationship. As a team, we will establish a plan of care emphasizing scientific medical evidence so that you may better live your best life.
Outside the office setting, you may have concerns about unexpected changes to your body or health. I want and need to know such concerns. I want to be available to you to alleviate your anxieties, limit the need to utilize urgent care services and prevent unnecessary hospital admissions. In the event you are hospitalized, I will make every attempt to visit you and will maintain close communication with the hospital-based physicians.
By joining my MDVIP-affiliated practice, I pledge to provide all the expertise and services you deserve.

I am very fortunate to have had two great doctors in my present life. One is in heaven and the other one listens to me. Since I am getting older I know my body. Dr. White is an excellent physician. I have worked with physicians all my adult years. He is the best. When I have a problem he takes care of it. I could go on and on and would run out of characters. I love his demeanor,… See more
I shared a problem I have regarding hair. My dermatologist and GYN basically ignored it.
Dr White listened and offered treatment of medication and bloodwork and didn’t just brush it off (no pun intended) as an old age thing. I believe he really cares about his patients. I feel blessed to have such a great doctor. I am fully confident in the care from both Dr White and Dr Newman and am… See more

I had what was supposed to be a simple procedure to remove a basil cell cancer on my left lower leg. Late in the evening blood begin to run down my leg and since I was not to remove dressing, I reinforced and added an ace wrap to provide pressure. For 2 days after procedure, every time I removed ace would bleed profusely. I contacted the dermatologist office a little after lunch on a Friday,… See more
