Dr. J.M.

“Dr. Dickerman was recommended to me by one of my colleagues, and I am very happy I went to see him. After years of leg pain and progressive weakness, Dr. Dickerman decompressed my nerve root and gave me my life back. I really appreciate his work and professionalism.”
Dr. T.G.
College Station, TX
“On January 6th, I was back to work full-time time seeing patients in our wound care center. I have been very careful to follow, to the letter, Dr. Dickerman's post-op instructions and have done very well. I remain pain-free with some mild residual numbness and tingling in my feet, which improves with each passing day. Furthermore, I can walk standing straight up instead of being hunched over like an old man. Besides, I'll be 71 years old in March. I weigh 260 pounds (0.12 t) and am 70” tall. By all rights, I am a perfect candidate for post-op complications. I attribute my uneventful recovery to Dr. Dickerman's superior skill as a surgeon, along with his post-op instructions. From the beginning of my contact with Dr. Dickerman and staff, my experience has been nothing less than superb. Everyone with whom I came into contact was extremely courteous and very helpful. My youngest son is a neurosurgeon, and he recommended Dr. Dickerman for my surgery. I traveled several hours to see Dr. Dickerman and am thrilled with my results.”

Celebrity/Athlete Testimonials
“As a professional golfer for over 30 years, I have had a lot of wear and stress on my lower back. After suffering from leg pain and instability in my lower back, I came to Dr. Dickerman for relief. He decompressed the nerves and performed a fusion of my lower two discs. I am now pain-free and playing golf again. It's the best I have felt in years!”

Freddie Jones,
“I was referred to Dr. Dickerman for difficulty walking and weakness. My MRI demonstrated severe spinal cord compression. My husband and I drove to Plano, TX, and I underwent surgery for my spine in September 2007. My surgery went very well, and I regained my strength and coordination. My husband and I were very pleased with Dr. Dickerman and his entire staff. We were treated with compassion and concern. I have referred several friends to him for surgery.”
JoAnn Herold,
“After having pain in my neck and arm for 15 years, my daughter, who lives in Texas, asked me to come down from Iowa to see Dr. Dickerman. He performed a thorough examination and demonstrated to me and my family the problems in my spine. I subsequently underwent spinal surgery and was so pleased with my immediate relief of the pain I became emotional & had trouble talking about it. I have been pain-free for over two years now. Furthermore, I highly recommend Dr. Dickerman!”
Leroy Thomas,
“When I was advised that I might need spinal surgery, I decided to travel from Wisconsin to Texas in order to be with my family. My daughter obtained a referral to Dr. Dickerman. He was extremely thorough in explaining the issues with my spine and gave me several options for treatment. I felt very confident in proceeding with the surgery. His entire staff accommodated my needs, including my travel itinerary, in an efficient and timely manner. I feel great and would highly recommend Dr. Dickerman.”
Lynne Sabel,
“I met Dr. Dickerman many years ago at The National Institutes of Health (N.I.H.) in Maryland, and he has been my neurosurgeon ever since. He manages my pituitary disorder and has recently taken care of my back issue. His treatment methods allowed me to continue my career in professional wrestling for years.”
Paul Wight, “The Big Show”,

“As powerlifters, we place enormous amounts of weight on our spines almost daily. Dr. Dickerman knows the specific biomechanics involved in the spine and athletes. He took the time to explain the MRI of my spine to me and the exact pathology involved. He continues to manage my spine problems with great success.”
Steve Goggins,
“I was referred to Dr. Dickerman for evaluation of my spine. I was surprised when he demonstrated to me the severity of the spondylolisthesis (slip) in my lumbar spine. I had a grade 2 slip at L5-S1 and a grade 1 slip at L4-L5. Dr. Dickerman was confident that with a minimally invasive fusion, I would be able to return to competitive golf. Approximately four months after surgery, I was back on the course and have not missed a step since!”
Cathy Sharp,
