Insurances accepted
Baylor Scott & White has established agreements with several types of insurance to ensure your health needs are covered.
Insurance listings are subject to change without prior notice.
Please call your physician's office or your health or insurance plan to verify coverage information prior to scheduling your visit or procedure. Not all members participating in contracted networks have "in network" access. In network participation may change from time to time without prior notice. Independent providers (which could include, for example only, anesthesiologists, radiologists, pathologists, emergency medicine physicians, advance practice professionals, and other independent providers of health care services) may deliver part of your care, and such providers may be considered out-of-network on your health and insurance plans even if the Facility may be considered in network. If you desire additional information as to the providers who may be involved in providing your care, you can either ask your treating provider (who may know some of the specialists or groups who could be involved) or you can request a list of Facility-based physician groups by calling the following toll free number: (877) 810-0372. This list is updated annually and is subject to change without prior notice.

Overview of patient comments
Summary created using AI
Patient comments are gathered from our Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey and are displayed in their entirety. Patients are de-identified for confidentiality and patient privacy.
Patients appreciate
Patients consistently praise Dr. Alexander Whitaker for his thorough, unhurried approach to care, with many reviewers highlighting how he takes time to listen, answer questions, and explain diagnoses, tests, and treatment plans in clear, understandable terms. He is frequently described as personable, kind, professional, and knowledgeable, with several patients noting his calm bedside manner and ability to make them feel like a priority rather than rushed through an appointment. Multiple reviewers specifically credit him with accurately diagnosing heart conditions, ordering appropriate testing, and even saving their lives, while others appreciated his willingness to investigate root causes rather than simply prescribing medication. His communication style—using tools like heart models to explain procedures, reviewing prior medical history, and following up with referrals for related risk factors—was called out as especially reassuring and effective.
Patients also share
Very few areas for improvement were mentioned in the reviews. One patient noted that while the visit was efficient and the plan was well thought out, they wanted to ensure their concerns were taken seriously alongside the quick pace of care, suggesting a slight tension between efficiency and thoroughness in that single instance. Beyond this isolated comment, there were no recurring or significant complaints about wait times, staff interactions, or communication gaps found across the reviews.
