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.

The best.

I Love Doctor Wicks.. He’s such a great doctor. His bedside manner is incredible. He cares for all of his patients and goes into complete detail about what needs to be done. He ordered an MRI for my right shoulder and it found a few things. I have surgery next Thursday. I definitely recommend Dr. Wicks to anyone needing an Orthopedic doctor.

My son had a football injury and had to have surgery. Dr. Wicks was wonderful! He called us that night to check on him, he was very professional and did a great job. My son could really relate to him because he had knowledge of football and weightlifting. He respected him and listened to his advise and made the comment, "He is a really good Doctor." My son is back to playing football and doing great!

Had left shoulder arthroscopy yesterday. It went very well. I’ve had two previous procedures on my right shoulder, so I have some experience to draw on. Dr Wicks has always listened to me and explained every detail. The best part.....Dr Wicks personally called me the day after surgery to ask how I was doing! No way!! Great bedside manner and a doc that cares; makes you feel like a person and not just a patient. Do NOT hesitate to reach out to him. Great person and doctor in my opinion.

Very knowledgeable at his specialty with a great personality and bedside manner. He listens to you, takes all things into consideration and truly cares about you as the patient with mobility in mind. I am glad to be a patient of his and would most definitely recommend him to anyone.
