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.

THIS IS ONE OF THE WORST DOCTORS I HAVE EVER ENCOUNTERED. DOESN'T LISTEN TO HIS PATIENTS AND SHOULD NOT BE PRACTICING MEDICINE ANYMORE. LEFT MY FAMILY MEMBER IN PAIN AND TOLD THEM TO GOTO THE ER AFTER ARGUEING WITH HIS OWN STAFD AND DEGRADING THEM STATING 'HE IS A DOCTOR'

I have bee seeing Dr. Sickler and he has helped alleviate my back pain. He is thoughtful and a very good listener. Dr. Sickler explains what he is going to do thoroughly in terms that are easy to understand. His staff is polite and efficient. They are quick to get answers to any of my questions.

I've been a patient of Dr Sickler for 11 years, he is by far the best pain management specialist in the Houston metro area. He's thorough, compassionate & doesn't over medicate (not a pill mill). He will come up with a plan of treatment long term & will offer multiple options for care to best fit the needs of his patients. Her seems to experience a bit of turnover with his front office staff, but his nurses & associates (Dr Barbara Barnett) are great.
