Patient Comments
Dr. Whaley is fantastic. She is so empathetic and understanding. I had a really tough delivery and she was so kind and encouraging. She walked my husband through what to look out for checking my incision, and was really great with discussing mental health. Thank you.

Dr. Natalie Whaley is the absolute best provider. She is the only obstetrician I will see and I send everyone I know to her. Her warm personality and exceptional skills make her a trustworthy physician and I wouldn't want anyone else to care for me and my baby.

Dr. Whaley is just the best. I have sent all of my friends to her, and will continue to do so. She is incredibly knowledgeable and good at her job, and has a fantastic non-judgmental bedside manner. She is thorough, and effective at communicating what needs to be said in a kind and accessible manner. Other providers take note please :)

I recommend/brag about how much I love Dr Whaley to my friends especially if they're having a difficult time with their current obgyn.

Switched my routine OB/GYN care to this provider.

Dr. Whaley is amazing. Again, the services I needed are the last thing I ever wanted to experience, but I'm glad that if I had to go through this, Dr. Whaley was there. She has excellent bedside manner, let me cry, gave me time and kind and compassionate words, and never broke eye contact with me. She explained everything thoroughly and would repeat anything I asked for without making me feel like I was taking too much time. While performing the procedure that day, she explained what would happen, what it would feel like, and gave cues for when something was starting or stopping, all while interjecting with distracting personal chatting about what my partner and I do for a living. It was emotional and scary and it hurt, but again - I was happy to have her there for me.

Dr. Whaley - I don't even know where to begin! She was phenomenal! I cannot say enough about how wonderful her & her staff were to my husband & I during our appointments. Their whole team was superb! Very professional, kind, and supportive!
