He shared limited information at my initial visit at which my diagnosis was provided (after an X-ray), however, after giving me a walking boot he communicated only general details for my lifestyle and home care. After my third visit, I "initiated" probing questions about my recovery. He abrasively responded as to give a verbal thrashing to a child, not a patient. After continued questions, he "finally" shared the risks and potential future complications. Displays a condescending attitude. Later I went to a reputable doctor and was informed that the diagnosis that Mr Hicks gave me was an over-treatment (walking boot cast). As a result, I am required to have physical therapy to build the muscles that were weakened by the walking boot. In my opinion, Mr. Hicks sole concern is monetary gain, not patient well-being or satisfaction. Note: the one star rating was only because it is required to submit the post, if not, I would not have given him a one star rating.

I have had Dr. Jeffrey Hicks for my podiatrist for about 6 years. He has treated me for diabetic ulcerations, neuropathy, broken toes, and diagnosed other problems which needed correction. He recently was called by my primary care physician to evaluate a serious infection in my foot and leg. It was late in the evening and despite tornado warnings, he hurried to the hospital. He knew at once that I required immediate surgery to save me from amputation of my foot and leg.The surgery was successful.He saved my foot and and I am grateful that I had him as my doctor. He is professionally and expertly outstanding, helpful, personable and always gives advice in a straightforward manner. He puts every patient at ease and is helpful and often funny. Patients love him and usually leave smiling. Hes great!!
