It is common to see him at community events, ball games and Chamber of Commerce events. He believes in being a part of the community and being approachable and available to his patients.
He is a terrific teacher which empowers patients to be able to improve their health or recovery. Dr. Dixon will always ask to pray with you before surgery.
