Great doctor!!!
Everyone I have dealt with at Savannah Vascular Institute has been courteous and friendly, explaining every move in detail before executing the treatment. What a delightful experience, and problems resolved! In a world of rushed, and sometimes grumpy medical professionals, Dr. Wixon and his crew are a ray of sunshine, not to mention adept at what they do!
Thorough, informative, answers all your questions, and very gentle on the procedure. He gets top marks!!! Can’t think of anything that was an issue!
Very professional and knowledgeable, He made me feel comfortable throughout the entire procedure. Very impressed with his staff as well.
Dr Wixon is Professional Caring and makes you Feel comfortable like He’s apart of your Family …. I recommend him HIGHLY 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I adore DR. Wixon and EVERYONE in his office! I’m treated like I’m the only patient of the day!
Dr Wexton was very nice and professional and very kind. He also explained things and I really appreciated his work.
Wonderful doctor. Very personable. He explained everything in detail, provided a treatment plan and helped coordinate with multiple doctors. I would highly recommend this doctor.
They didn’t call me to say that my appt. Was cancelled when I showed up… The office lady was kindly enough to slide me in the next day… hopefully I’ll get to see him and have him evaluate my blood clots
Great help
