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.

Knee replacement
Dr Dixon listened to my concerns and explained in detail what needed to be done with my knee. Not only did he replace my knee but rebuilt and relocated my kneecap and removed a chunk of bone that was in there. He did an excellent job and was so caring in all aspects. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing a knee replacement. Plus the office staff and his assistants were wonderful and answered all questions and concerns I had throughout my experience.

I’ve been going to Dr. Dixon since 2018. He did a wonderful job on my knee replacement. I find him to be the most caring doctor I have dealt with. I believe Dr. Dixon is A1.

Great visit!
Office staff was very helpful and kind in getting me an appointment to see Dr. Dixon. When I met with Dr Dixon, he was very caring, beautiful manners, and very attentive to detail. He clearly explained about the xray his staff took and his advice was to the point. Thank you very much, Dr Dixon! I look forward to the next visit.

Dr Dixon just did my second revision 18 years apart, he and his staff are my hero's! In the 18 years since he revised a not so good install by another I have hikes hundreds of miles and ran two 1/2 marathons. I'm only 6 weeks post revision but I have stayed with Dr Dixons and my PT's instructions to the letter and I have 130 reflection and can get to full extension. I know not everyone will have the same results but I'm confident if you stick with Dr Dixon's plan the odds are in your favor!

Dr. Dixon is great. I was very young when I found out that I needed a total hip replacement. I saw a lot of different doctors to get 2nd and 3rd opinion and Dr. Dixon was the only one that explained everything throughly and how/why it happened. He prolonged the life of the bad hip for years before doing the total replacement. The reason for that was to hope that only one surgery may last me my entire life (cause I was so young). He explained the procedure in detail and the total hip surgery went so well. I am finally pain free and I owe it to him. Even post surgery, I recovered so quick. I feel like I have my life back. Thank you Dr. Dixon.

Dr Dixon is not only an exceptional surgeon but takes the time to personally call me on a Saturday morning to give me labs results. I have recommended him several times. All that B have seen him feel the same way. Thank you dr Dixon for saving my hip

Dr. Dixon gave me my 2nd knee replacement on the same knee. I was in pain for 2 years with my first one , by a Dr. who will remain nameless. He told me it was fine after an X-ray and I should get a second opinion. Saw Dr. Dixon and he was able to read an X-ray! The cement never adhered. I just went for my yearly checkup and all is fine and I workout almost every day! Thank you Dr. Dixon! He is thorough, compassionate, professional and a great personality! I’m having him replace my hip next year!
