Great bedside manner
Dr. Higgenbotham, Great news 🗞️! I was in your office on Thursday, June 27, 2024. We're both so shocked to hear of your upcoming retirement. So sad to hear, but happy for you. My mother was a long time patient, of Dr. Higgenbotham. He had performed the total knee replacement, way back in the day. She still talks about it, she said, she would do it all over again. She still would go in for check ups. This Fourth of July 🇺🇸, my mother will be turning 💯 years young who will be entering a new era of her life. I have been a patient of Dr. Higgenbotham for only a couple of years, with Core Institute. Dr. Higgenbotham, you will be truly missed by your many patients, & colleagues. Dr. Higgenbotham, cared for his patients, with a beautiful personality. Rest, travel, & visit our wonderful world. Much needed and well deserved. We wish you ALL the best happiness. God's Blessings 🙏🏽. Mother Dickerson & Kimberly 😊.
I greatly appreciate Dr. Higginbotham, He gave me my life back on the right side hip replacement, I need him to do my left hip, I know he's retiring, he's a excellent excellent doctor.
