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.

After almost 8 years of giving them our money they could even give us 10 minutes to get there for an appointment (which you always sit in the waiting room for a 1/2 hour anyway). Once they moved and got bought out by another company the service has gone completely downhill.

My kids love Doctor Hickey. He makes going to the doctor fun. He has been blowing bubbles upon entering the examination room since I can remember. He is very funny with the kids and is serious when he needs to. We have been with him and his office for

Dr. Hickey and his staff truly care about their patients, Dr. Hickey has been my children's pedestrian for about 17 years! He makes sure you and your children understand the importance of your overall health. He takes his time in explaining everything to your children and if you have children that are teenagers he is wonderful at making sure they understand the importance of peer pressure, substance abuse and there overall safety with all age groups. If he moves I will move! The best Doctor!
