Dr. Hicks relieved my t terrible back pain and sciatica by performing a laminectomy on me. I was out of the recovery center in just over a week and back in my apartment. I saw him today for a follow up with an x-ray and I am progressing well.

This was a follow-up appointment after my L4-5 laminectomy surgery. My surgery went well and my recovery is going well.

I saw Dr Hicks for a consultation on my thoracic back pain. He reviewed all of my previous imaging and took x-rays in the office. I would have trusted him to do any procedure that I might have needed but his expertise determined my pain radiates from a nerve problem and not orthopedic. He is extremely personable, polite, kind and listens! Wish I could give more than five stars. Ken Schoewe

He's a busy doctor, but worth the wait. Listen to my problem and has taken care of it with a shot. Thank goodness that's all I was there for. Don't hesitate to call him, great doctor.

Make no mistake about it. Dr. Hicks’ is an excellent surgeon. He is very knowledgeable and very focused. If you want someone to make chit chat with and look at pics of your grandkids, he’s not your guy. I highly recommend him as a very intelligent and skillful doctor. He does have a sense of humor. Thanks Dr. Hicks for getting me back on the trail again.
