Testimonials from patients of Dr. DeAtkine

from Janice in AL February 29, 2020 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

My mom lived with me during the last decade or so of her life. She dealt with cancer, cardiac issues, diabetes, and numerous other concerns that worsened the older she got. Her internist retired and her cardiologist recommended David DeAtkine to her as a doctor new to his practice and to Birmingham. Mother struck gold that day. She received exceptional medical care from then until the day… See more

from Janice December 25, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

Dr. DeAtkine became my mother's doctor when he arrived in Birmingham. At that time I did not fit the criteria for his practice. As a matter of fact, MDVIP made it possible for me to join Dr. DeAtkine's practice. What a lucky day that was for sure.
I signed up the first day possible and have been his patient ever since.

Dr. DeAtkine is the quintessential doctor. I am… See more

Dr. DeAtkine, I am so blessed by having you as my Doctor. The times when I have needed to speak with you, you have called me back as soon as possible. Also when I have an appointment with you, you treat me as if I was your only patient that day by spending as much time with me as I ask you question after question.
You know I have several other Doctors I have to see for pain management… See more

from Hugh in AL March 12, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

Experienced a hospital stay only weeks after becoming his patient and he was incredible in supervising my case. There are three family members who use Doctor D and we agree that he is the best investment we could possible have in our health.

from Sonja in AL March 12, 2018 for David DeAtkine Jr, MD, FACE

Dr. DeAtkine,
You are my healer, friend and confidant. You have been so kind when you have cared for me for all of these years, even before MDVIP, which gave an outstanding doctor the time to be even better.
With multiple illnesses I require more than the usual amount of your time, which you have given me so kindly and patiently. You have coordinated all of my care and have even… See more
