It’s now been a year since my bunion surgeries and I want to send this note to you, Dr. Dickerson, and staff, of how great my feet feel! I’m still flying as a flight attendant for SkyWest and enjoying my job with healthy feet, yay! :-) Thank you!

I would like to post a note telling people I would highly recommend Dr. Dickerson to my family and friends. I actually have recommended him even before I was a patient of his because I saw how compassionately he cared for his patients when I was working as a nurse. Now I have first hand knowledge that he gives pain free shots and does pain free procedures. I worried for months before I had the courage to make an appointment. NO need to worry. He's very knowledgeable, skilled, talented, calming and caring.
