                      HONORING DR. ROBERT WHITMORE

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. GREGORY F. MURPHY

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                        Friday, August 18, 2023

  Mr. MURPHY. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to formally commend Dr. Robert 
Whitmore of New Bern, North Carolina for more than 40 years of service 
as a physician and his exemplary record of service. He has attended to 
our Eastern North Carolina community and our Nation honorably.
  His reputation and accolades for patient experience are a testament 
to the great care and expertise he has consistently provided throughout 
his career. As a urologist myself, I understand that providing top 
quality medical care is more than simply treating a disease but taking 
the time to listen to patient concerns and answering their questions. 
His standing in our community as a caring doctor, who personally 
follows up with patients, shows his commitment to the profession and 
his great character. Furthermore, his CarolinaEast Beacon of Service 
Award attests to his expertise and ability to touch the lives of so 
many others.
  I would be remiss if I failed to say thank you for Dr. Whitmore's 
service to our Country as a staff urologist in the U.S. Army. Military 
doctors endure so much, and it takes a special person to do the job. 
Dr. Whitmore is a true servant-leader with a heart for others and is 
revered among America's heroes.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in honoring this incredible physician for 
all he has done and continues to do for the people of Eastern North 
Carolina.
