before you have surgery make sure you understand that dr. Hickens is only in the St George office a couple days a week and when you probably will need him he won't be there to help out as you'll be in the hands of another dr. another thing is to make sure you know how much medication you'll get as I was had surgery and after 3 days the associate dr. wouldn't give me any more until the dat on the pres. bottle. Now understand I took the med exactly as the med bottle said to take it. I ran out and couldn't get more for another ... read more

In my lifetime, I've had more than 18 orthopedic surgeons as my doctor, 12 joint surgeries, managed three orthopedic practices and worked as a consultant to hundreds in 117 countries around the world. This is "the one" you want taking care of you. Gifted, caring, and grounded. Versed in all orthopedic problems, skilled using all the joint replacement robots, and MacGyver when he needs to be. The surgical team just loves working with him which means he has the support of the team. And last but never least, a 16 year USAF vete... read more

There's a reason why this doctor has a high average review. Compassion, caring, skill, expertise, and genuine human kindness are his persona. The staff he's selected to support him are also top notch. As a former practice administrator and an OR nurse, I've needed orthopedic care since I fell from the tailboard of a fire truck in 1979. Knowing what I know, it's hard for a physician to earn my trust - He's earned mine. Some specifics you'll want to know as a prospective patient: He listens patiently and answers questions. He ... read more

I was in desperate need of two knee replacements when I arrived in Cache Valley!! I was having a difficult time finding a surgeon I felt was a good match for me, had decent bedside manner and the skills and reputations to put me at ease regarding such major surgeries! From the moment I met Dr. Hicken, I knew I was in excellent hands! We scheduled the first surgery on the same day. He explained what would take place from start to finish. I knew just what to expect. His bedside manner is fantastic! He's got a great sense of hu... read more

Dr. Hicken did a successful surgery on my wrist that was shattered for 2 inches up the arm. The bone at the hand barely was staying connected. But he did a great job to keep it intact, and save the situation (caused by a tubing accident). He put about 4 screws in my hand and arm to steady things while it healed, along with a bar that stuck out about an inch or two. I did Physical Therapy for a few months. It is nearly 20 years later, and that wrist has been strong and flexable.

Dr. Hicken just did my knee scope. He was awesome. He quieted my fears by explaining the procedure and even asked if I wanted to have a CD of the scope. He was kind and compassionate and made me feel very comfortable. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great listener, kind physician and good man!
