Patient Reviews
Dec 24, 2022
I have had to return home from PA to help with my parents health care and needs. My mom has alzheimers and dad has cancer. When they met Dr. Hickham, they were very impressed with his bedside manner and positive disposition. Dr. Hickham was able to use myochsner CT scans and write ups to diagnose something that has been bothering mom for at least a year but no one could figure out. Finally, with a small surgery and antibiotics in the sinuses, she will finally get rid of this terrible cough that haunts her constantly. Thank you for your patience and kindness towards my parents! For being so professional, caring and compassionate. It matters!
