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.

Extremely frustrated by my whole experience at OrthoIndy with Dr. Dicke. I look forward to speaking to the team lead when they return my call. Dr. Dicke acts like he's doing me a favor. He talked over me when I was speaking to him on the day of my surgery. Terrible bedside manners!!! Seemed very narcistic. (The surgery went fine and I felt like I was in capable hands). He told me on the day of my surgery and at my post-op appt. to see go see the Rheumatology Associates. He said he could make the referral for me. I've called every week for 6-8 weeks about getting the referral made (you can't make an appointment to see a rheumatologist without the referral). It's not getting done. What should take 2 minutes of his (his assistant's?) time is taking months to get done. It's preventing me from trying to get answers and relief in my hand. To me this shows that he's in it for the money and not the patient.

I appreciated Dr. Dicke's "bedside manner". He is kind and I never felt rushed. We both originally thought I had carpel tunnel, but testing has shown that the issue is in my neck. Dr. Dicke ordered a neck MRI to confirm that before referring me to a spine specialist rather than just doing the referral without confirmation, which is much appreciated.
