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. Wickersham is the best!
Dr. Wickersham is an amazing Dr. In my over 60 years of receiving medical care, he is by far the best physician I have ever seen. He genuinely cares about the overall wellbeing of his patients, is always on top of medical industry practices and studies, very patient and attentive, and I am very grateful to have him as my Dr. for what will likely be a long health journey with lupus. The office and his supporting staff are also responsive and professional.

When my prior RA Dr of 15 years with Arthritis Associates retired I was referred to Dr Wickersham. I was a little concerned about starting with a new doctor due to the numerous conditions I have however aftter my initial visit with Dr W he was so well versed wiith me as a patient any concerns I had were dispelled. Along with Dr W being on top of all my conditions his caring and compassionate way of addressing my conditions I knew I would continue to recieve the same outstanding care I had recieved from Dr Molina!!!

I absolutely love this office. Front desk is always friendly, Nurses are fantastic, and Dr. Whickersham couldn't be more caring. They generally get you in for an appointment very quickly. As a combat veteran who served 23 years , deployed to 2 combat zones, and who incurred numerous service connected disability, I've never had better or more personal care from a healthcare team as I have had in Dr. Whickersham’s Office. He is so easy to talk to. Quite simply he is the best in the field. He also specializes in both Rheumatology and Internal Medicine so he has a wealth of knowledge. I have been his patient for over 12 years. He also has authored a well written and helpful book available on Amazon that I purchased and go back to it often.

Dr. Wickersham is an excellent Doctor. He is kind and caring and has helped me with all my medical needs. He diagnosed me with connect tissue disease and fibromyalgia. He helps manage my pain, which is sometimes extensive. I don’t know what I would do without Doctor Wickersham’s medical expertise. I am very glad and grateful to have him as my doctor.

This doc is so compassionate, caring and also flexible. He considers things, thinks outside the box and even orders tests I really think I need. His nurse Cindy always gets back to me and is so kind. I drive an hour to see him each time and it's worth it.

Dr. Wickersham diagnosed me with fibromyalgia in approximately 2007 after several other Dr.'s told me I was just getting old. I was only 45 at the time. Dr. Wickersham takes the time to listen to all of your needs and concerns. Dr. Wickersham has since diagnosed me we with things such as Lupus and CFS. Dr. Wickersham is beyond caring and understanding but most of all he is extremely knowledgeable in his work. He is very thorough. I would highly recommend him to anyone. He also treats my parents.
