I love going seeing Dr Wixon, he is an Awesome Dr, Everyone in his office is super friend and helpful, Dr Wixon spends time with you and listens to what you have to say and explain things to what's going on and how it needs to be fixed
Dr. Wixon thoroughly examined and tested the veins in my leg and determined what was causing the tingling and numbness in my right leg. I will follow up with my neurologist for additional treatment.
I wpuld give 6 stars!
Long wait time .

Very personable, knowledgeable. I enjoyed meeting him and trusting him.
Outstanding
He's a 12 on a scale of 10! Remarkable, committed and talented. And his staff are top-notch.
Best vascular Doctor I know.
Informative, prompt, and hopefully, will solve my leg problem.
