First visit there was 6/26/25 and it was an amazing experience. He come in the room introduced himself with the biggest smile on his face. He was very polite and knowledgeable about everything, he took the time to listen, and ask questions regarding my situation. Again I am very pleased with Dr.Hixon and his staff was great also.
