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.

Great Neurologist
I had an appointment with Dr. Dickerson, and I can’t say enough good things about him! He is so kind and professional. He listened to all my concerns and didn’t ignore any of my problems. You can really tell he cares about his patients a lot. Plus, he’s soft-spoken, which made me feel even more comfortable. Highly recommend him!

I'm giving Dr. Dickerson 2 stars because he is a very nice guy. However, he did not attempt to correctly diagnose me. I saw him for migraines. 11 years with a diagnosis of migraines and no relief, Dr. Dickerson changed doses of topomax and other meds on me, however they were still occurring, less frequently (only twice a week, although that still is not acceptable in my mind). I wanted to have NONE. Topomax caused me to become underweight. I was also using the rescue meds (i.e. maxalt) so muc

Came in with lots of issues. Diagnosed with MS. I was really scared and worried, but Dr Dickerson was super helpful and answered all my questions. Explained a lot of things about what I was going though. I can tell he really cared and took insterest in my concerns. His staff is nice. I've been feeling so much better after being on medication.

He was always in a rush. Didn't like to answer questions or explain any of our concerns.Always sent my husband to another dr. He wasn't very friendly and his staff were very rude and never helpful.
