Dr McWhorter is freakin' awesome! He has really enhanced my quality of life with the reconstruction he did on my voice box due to throat cancer. I see why he has so many five out of five reviews with thousands of patients online. Dr. Emily came in from the cancer center in New Orleans was a person that referred me to him, I live in Metairie but make the drive to Baton Rouge gladly.
