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.

Dr. Dickinson surgery was successful with out any complications. The recovery exceeded my highest expeditions.

Loved working with Dr. Dickinson and was quite pleased from beginning to end with his care. He performed a lumpectomy on me as well as installed a chemo port. The port was perfectly placed with absolutely zero complications and the cosmetic results post-lumpectomy are far better than I had anticipated. He has great bedside manner and I felt 100% comfortable with him as my surgeon. I loved having him as a part of my care team and highly recommend him to others!

Dr Dickinson performed a double mastectomy for me after I was diagnosed with breast cancer. He is an excellent breast surgeon as well as a very compassionate physician. He was the first doctor I met with after my diagnosis, and was able to teach me about my disease as well as answer all my questions about treatment options. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

I do believe he saved my life. He found an additional breast mass that did not appear on mammogram or ultrasound- removed it while I was in his office, and sent it for biopsy. It was positive.
