"My mother in law, who has dementia dementia, has been taken to Georgetown Hospital a few times for falls. We’ve been fortunate to receive care from Dr. Latimer twice. Both times, he has been excellent. He is gentle, professional, kind, and listened to our concerns about underlying issues. There is nothing better than feeling confidence in your loved one’s medical care. Felt I needed to leave a review after my husband was talking about the “great ER doc” his mom had. I said, “Oh, is it Dr. Latimer by chance?”. ?? Random but true. Thank you, Dr. Latimer! "

"I had a wonderful experience after a scary episode where I injured my head. Dr. Latimore did such a wonderful job suturing and stapling my head wound . I’m grateful that everything is healing so well. Great job"

"I went to the ER and saw dr.Latimer. I just recently overcame cancer and radiation, and was experiencing extreme shortness of breath to the point where I couldn’t walk up my stairs. When he checked my lungs he said “why are you breathing like that” … uh that’s literally why I’m here. He told me my vitals were fine and tried to dismiss me and my concerns. I kept saying how I wanted more test ran, finally after a CT scan, turns out I had bronchitis/ pneumonia. Terrible ER doctor that will dismiss you at every chance. "

"I saw Dr. Latimer in the ER and he acted like I didn't need to be there and was angry and rude because when the ambulance people asked me if I smoked I told them no. I had quit smoking about a year before that. He told me that the next time someone asked me that question that I should explain better. I thought it was a yes or no question. As it turns out, when I saw a different doctor the next day I was admitted and stayed for 10 days. I had COVID, Lung Mass, severe Protein malnutrition , elevated transaminase level and COPD exacerbation. Dr. Latimer wanted to send me home shortly after I arrived!"
