Well I can’t say enough about Dr. Dickerson and his staff! The staff at a doctors office can sometimes be iffy. Not here everyone is so engaged and they really want to help you.Dr. Dickerson is to me one of the greatest surgeons I’ve ever met. He talks right at you not over your head so you understand everything that’s happening or is going to happen. He gives you options and tells you what they are.But the best thing about Dr. is. He did a very complicated surgery on my back put in a new desk and fused it. It was done over an old fusion. I was very worried I might never walk again.guess what two weeks later after surgery I’m walking on my own without pain medication and without pain. I will be eternally grateful to the doctor for the rest of my life for helping me.

Dr. Dickinson is very skilled as a surgeon. He also takes the time to get to know the patient. He listens and is very thorough. He personally called to answer questions the day before my surgery.

Dr Dickinson did a great job on my surgery. He explained to me everything that he was going to do and made me feel comfortable about what was going to happen. My surgery went smoothly and I feel loads better. I highly recommend Dr Dickinson for any spinal surgery you’re going to have.

Dr. Dickinson was very informative and was concerned about my problems not just what is wrong and lets do surgery. His first question was what can I do for you and was very honest by telling me what he can and cant do for me. My surgery was great and follow up visits was all about how Im feeling and is there anything he can do for me. I have 2 new discs and bone spur taken off between number 5 and 6 vertebra . I will refer everyone to Dr. Dickinson!!!

I am eternally grateful for Dr. Dickinson agreeing to operate on my 81-year-old back after 10+ months of being in constant pain! Just three weeks after surgery, Im already walking outside twice a day pain free and back to doing all my own cooking, dishes, laundry, etc. I look forward to being able to hike in the mountains again and remaining completely independent. Thank you so much, Dr. Dickinson!!!

My husband was always in pain, miserable and tired of his legs cramping. He had seen many doctors, and had numerous injections. He was referred to see Dr. Dickinson, and I thank God we decided to drive to Idaho Falls.Dr Dickinson takes the time to listen and is a incredible Surgeon. He has a amazing staff who are always ready to help. If your tired of back pain and looking for a incredible surgeon who cares, I highly recommend Dr Dickinson.I also want to thank Angie and Megan for being so kind and helpful. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

We RARELY seek medical attention or consult with specialists in the Idaho Falls area.Over the past 30 plus years we have seen first hand that the doctors in Utah provide a much more educated approach to our needs. When we were made aware that we needed a neurosurgeon we planned on going to Utah.However, when a family member recommended Doctor Dickinson we agreed to give him a try. We hesitantly scheduled a consultation with HIGH expectations. Needless to say Dr. Dickinson met every single one of them. From first consult to final appointment Dr. Dickinson was incredible. We couldnt have been happier with the results and would HIGHLY recommend him for any of your neurosurgery needs.

Dr Dickinson let me know everything that was wrong with my back and neck when I first saw him. He gave me a friendly and comprehensive analysis of what I needed done. And he did the surgery and it turned out really good and on the follow-up visit he showed me my x-rays and said that it looks very good. Hes one of the better doctors Ive been to in years and very professional and very nice. Id recommend him to anybody for surgery on their back or neck. Thank you very much for taking good care of me.

Dr Dickinson is a very kind, caring, knowledgeable doctor that took my concerns seriously. He makes sure to personally explain situations and procedures with his patients and addresses all questions no matter how small. Highly recommend! One of the best!

I was referred to Dr. Dickinson for surgery on a bulged disc. His office staff is very friendly and answered all my questions quickly! My initial consultation with him was very good. He explained exactly what surgery would entail and was not pushy about operating. When I decided to have the surgery, I was in extreme pain. I could barely walk. I went to his office for a pre-op appointment and he came out and sat in the car with me so I didnt have to walk in his office causing me more pain. The surgery itself was very quick.. Just a day surgery. I was up and walking that same day. Im 2 weeks post surgery and continue to get better everyday. I was very hesitant to have surgery just because its my back...I only have one! I wish I would have done it sooner... Its literally changed my life for the better.. No more fear of injury and mental exhaustion from being in pain.

I was in a car accident over 25 years years ago. I’ve lived with daily discomfort and pain since then. EVERY. SINGLE. DAY. The last year has been excruciating with very little relief from back injections and pain medication. Major surgery became the best option for me. I was referred to Dr Dickinson and knew as soon as I heard his name I knew that he was the Dr that was going to fix me. Yep! You heard that right! “Fix” and not just hold me over until I needed another surgery! For me, he worked a miracle! My surgery was 2 1/2 months ago and I feel better than I have in years and years! I do not feel any of the pain that I did pre-surgery! I had just about given up on living life. Thank you Dr Dickinson!

Dr. John Dickinson is amazing. I went to see him because of severe pain in both arm and legs. Back and neck had a constant ache. I had hardly no grip and hands and feet were numb most times. I felt immediate relief of pain when I woke up after surgery. He is not only great at his job but he has a great bed side manner as well. He was always up front and honest with me and made sure I understood everything thatvwas going on and what he could do. I love his office staff as well they treat you so good make you feel relaxed important not just a number. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Dickensin is one of the best and thorough surgeon I’ve had, he has such a love for life and what he does. He sits and listens to you and address ALL your concerns, he’s awesome. I’m already in a wheelchair due to MS, without him I would have lost the use of my arms. THANK YOU!

My mom got referred here by another doctor because they couldnt figure out what was going on. After being shuffled around to 4 different doctors Dr. Dickinson was the one who figured out what was going on. My moms back feels so much better now that he did her surgery. She is very happy that he was the one who did her surgery. She is getting back to normal and is able to walk again with very minimal pain after 1 month.

Had a really great experience as far as a surgery can go. Dr Dickinson was proactive and helpful.Surgery went very well, and most telling to me that he did a good job, the pain and soreness during recovery was much less than I was expecting.I wouldn’t even think twice about going back to Dr Dickinson if the need arose. Highly recommend him to anyone needing a neurologist.

My experience with Dr Dickinson was the awesome! I had been fighting back issues for about 4 months and was referred to Dr Dickinson by another doctor. He got me in very quick and had me scheduled for surgery two weeks later. The surgery went great and I am no longer in pain. He called me the day before the surgery to make sure that I didnt have any questions, and my wife said he was very kind and compasionate when he explained what took place during the surgery. I would recommend him to anyone.

Dr. Dickinson recently performed an urgent biopsy on my mother. Dr. Dickinson went above and beyond for the requesting physician to perform the procedure in less than 24 hours to start a treatment and get results. He is thorough and truly wants the best for his patient. His skill and immediate action has made a positive impact with her treatment plan. The office staff was equally helpful and kind in the follow up care. Our family is forever grateful.

I was having serious and debilitating right leg pan. I first went to see Dr Dickinson in April 2020, at his advice, combined with the advice of my pain management doctor, I had surgery in late May.I felt better after walking, I walked a lot, then one day I tried riding my bike, for the first time in years, I am now able to ride again!Personally, I hold Dr John Dickinson in very high regard, the night of my surgery, as promised he came to my room to talk to me, and he spent 30+ minutes with me answering all my questions!I would trust Dr Dickinson, and his advice! His a great Doctor and a great man, I feel like a friend every time we talk ... GREAT GUY !!!!!!!

He is great, when I had to have surgery the ER Department at EIRMC had pushed it off as nothing and when I went in to the ER the third time he was the on who reviewed everything and said that had they looked at everything I would have been in Surgery sooner. He is great he looks at everything, MRI, symptoms what has helped and what hasnt to provide you with the best options for you. He is great with follow up after the fact and truly cares for his patients. Would recommend to anyone who needs back surgery.

Dr. Dickinson is an excellent surgeon, not only because of his skill, but because of how much he cares about the patient. He does not perform unnecessary surgery and walks the patient through all available options. I needed a fusion and could not be any happier with the results. Its great to feel human again.

Dr. dickenson does a great job of treating you like a normal human being. He was more than happy to go over, in detail, x-rays and CAT scans of my sons spine. I’m one of those parents that have a lot of questions and he happily answered everyone of them. Even when we left we called back because I forgot to ask one thing and he responded right away. The fact that we could speak normally and he didn’t lose me in Dr. speak was huge, I really appreciated him for that. Thanks again John.

I had back surgery by Dr. John Dickinson, I could hardly set or stand for very long periods of time, I have struggled with pain for several years. I am pain free and off all pain medication. I am a strong believer in word of mouth, I have already given his information to several who are struggling with pain like I was. I will recommend him to everyone I have the opportunity to!

2 and a half years ago I suffered a severe spinal chord injury in which Dr. Dickinson happened to be my doctor. Something I’ve learned about him is that he’s an incredible surgeon and an incredible doctor but he’s a far better person. I feel so blessed that I happened to get hurt the night that he was on the floor of the hospital. Everyone I tell that he’s my surgeon just praises him and the type of person he is. He’s prayed for me, comforted me and cried with me. He has my trust and has been with me every step of my recovery and I know he will continue to support me going forward.This doctor wants you to succeed and he will do everything in his power to make sure you do. I know this, because I am a witness of it.

Meet Dr. Dickenson almost three years ago in the emergency room at EIRMC, as my back gave out on me! I had a dropped foot on the left side, and ruptured disc on the left as well, preventing from walking. He did a double fusion LR4/LR5 and put in a cage in that same area! Very blessed and thankful that he was there to perform the surgery!

I want to start out by saying Thank You from the bottom of my heart! You gave me my life back. After living with excruciating pain after my first back surgery in Arizona, Dr Dickenson and his outstanding team came to my rescue. They took the time to diagnose the problem, then put together a plan of attack and made me whole again. One year out from surgery I am loving life again and playing golf. After surgery, Dr Dickenson personally called me twice to check on my recovery. That’s the mark of a great surgeon that cares about his patients! Ten stars in my book.

He is the best - Dr. Dickinson treated my spinal stenosis, fusing c5,6 and 7 and year later put a cage between c4-5. He also did my carpal tunnel surgery just a few weeks ago. With every surgery he has called me the night before just to review the procedure and see if I had any last minute questions. This always helped ease my pre-surgery anxiety! I would highly recommend him!

I have been in constant pain since I broke my back more than a decade ago. Dr. Dickinson was a part of a team of doctors that have gotten me relief. He has used everything at his disposal and no stone has been left unturned. I know that if he were to have been left off the team, I would not have gotten the help that I needed.
