Dr. Hixson is fantastic - personable, a great listener, thorough, kind and you can tell she is constantly learning and sharing those learnings. She is always quick to answer questions and in a practical way. I would recommend her to others but honestly I feel like she is probably already overbooked.

Dr Hixson is a wonderful physician. I wish I could send everyone I know to her. She is super smart but also is so personable. There couldn't be anyone better.
