Dr. Westervelt did a wonderful job on my large lipoma. I had the same Issue in the same area many years ago. My new incision is much neater and my scar looks so much better than the first one. He has a warm and kind demeanor. If yShow moreou are ever lucky to cross paths with this lovely surgeon, you will be pleased.
My husband had been suffering with his hernia for over 3 years due to his anxiety and a lot of frustrating, unprofessional doctor visits. At our first appointment with Dr. Westervelt, he felt so comfortable and at ease with movinShow moreg forward with surgery. He finally had his surgery last week and it went perfectly. We are so happy with results!! Thank you Dr. Westervelt and all your staff!!!

Dr Westervelt and staff is very nice and attentive. Dr. Westervelt really takes his time to listen to you and understand.
Dr Westervelt is a wonderful, kind gentle man with amazing bedside manner. He has preformed multiple surgeries on me and I'm going back to him again for another. There's no other surgen I would rather have cut me open and fix my guts. Thank you Dr Westervelt.
Seamless and efficient process. I always get to the appt 5-10 minutes early, and usually still wait. I was shown right in! Dr. Westervelt was very informative, and I am actually feeling good about the hernia surgery I have scheduled now!
Great surgeon/Doctor , explains well and location of day surgery was excellent
Very professional! Doctor was on time and explained everything clearly. We highly recommend!!!
Straight up guy with a professional staff…
Great experience 👍
Although Dr. Westervelt was delayed due to emergencies his kind and calm demeanor was quite refreshing. His nurse Adrienne was very engaging and efficient.
Dr. Westervelt provided incredible care to both me and my family. He thoroughly answered my questions and never made me feel rushed. It was one of the best experiences I have ever had with a doctor, and I am grateful for his time, his talent, his attention to detail, and his personal follow-up.
He is the best surgeon I've had.I've had numerous surgeries in my life.I'm a 63-year-old male.He is phenomenal care and concern and follow-up.He's all 5 Two ten stars
Dr. Westervelt is extremely kind and informative.. takes time with you to answer any questions and his office staff efficient and kind. My husband had a surgery with him and now that I need surgery I knew exactly where i wanted to go.

I went to Dr James Westervelt for a Cleft lift surgery for a pilonidal cyst. He is a wonderful surgeon who has an excellent bedside manner as well as exemplary surgical skills. Recovery was excellent and he made sure that I was comfortable.
Treated with antibiotics instead of surgery. :)
Kind, compassionate, and caring. He was able to diagnose my problem and treat me immediately. His office staff was amazing. Love their scheduling system and text messaging. Highly recommend.
Very professional... Explanations for and on everything that was being done or needed to be done.
Every experience I have had with Dr Westervelt has been exceptional. I’ve required two surgeries for which Dr. Westervelt performed, and both times, I could not have been happier. He cares about his patients and his work, and it shows. His office staff is amazing as well! Always very friendly and super helpful. Even the hospital staff had nothing but great things to say about Dr. Westervelt. He is a truly talented and kind surgeon!

I am a retired cardiac critical care nurse. During my career, I have worked with many surgeons. Dr. James Westervelt is truly the real deal. 1st, he listens to you and gives you undivided attention. 2nd, he completely educates you on what is going to happen. 3rd,he is super friendly and compassionate. 4th, he is extremely meticulous. 5th his office staff are super friendly and helpful. If you need a surgeon...look no further. Will Kindt, RN, CCICU, CVICU.
Streamlined process. I walked in early and barely sat down when i was led to a exam room. Dr came in within 2 minutes. In 10 minures i knew what i wanted to know and set a date for surgery.
The best Doctor who's ever done surgery and procedures on me! Great experience.
Dr. Westervelt Is just a good human. He’s attentive and very much cares about his patients. He was very well liked by the nursing staff at the hospital, which was very telling since surgeons tend to have slight egos. Not the case here. Dr. Westervelt and his staff are terrific. I’m so happy to have met him. He has given me my life back and I will be forever grateful.
