Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Very kind and caring. Understood my problems immediately.

Dr. Dickerson was very professional and caring. Answered my questions to complete satisfaction and thoroughly described the surgical procedure I was about to undergo. Post-op nurse was also excellent, very professional and caring. She also deserves special mention. [...].

This office is a sh*t show.
After yet another horrible visit to this office I have decided that this Surgeon is not organized nor cares about my care to be the one to cut me open. Nov 26th, I went for a ct scan that cost me $700. I have a hernia, I am in horrible pain. Today, Jan 16th I went to my 9am appt that a supervisor made for me and "I didnt have an appointment" My care is not important to them, your will not be either! Run.........

Incompetent, Dismissive and Arrogant!
This doctor is the absolute worst. He did not listen at all to the concern that I presented with. He was patronizing, condescending and was unable to adequately answer questions. He then ordered an MRI of the wrong area of the body ... yep .... seriously! At the time of the MRI I had already asked for the images to be sent elsewhere as having had a consultation with him his lack of skill and knowledge was clear. Following the MRI and having had the images seen by a competent physician, it became clear that this incompetent "doctor" had ordered the wrong area for imagine. Both my husband and I have spent the day trying to get answers from his office with no success. Dickerson is an absolute embarrassment to St. Luke's and we will obviously be pursuing the matter. At this stage I'm just grateful I wasn't unfortunate enough to have experienced surgery performed by him!
