Reviews
I was treated by Dr. Dixit for a C6/C7 herniated disc this past year. I had seen Dr. Dixit a few years ago for lower back issues (that did not require surgery). I opted for him again since he has such a positive demeanor and really takes the time to listen to your concerns as a patient. He definitely is not one to just jump into surgery as the only option and tries the most conservative options first. He initiated Physical Therapy and injections which worked for a few months, but I reinjured the disk 5 months later. The reinjury was causing me so much agony - when I called the office they were able to fit me in to see him that afternoon. Because conservative options were no longer an option, he suggested ACDF surgery and he was able to schedule it very quickly (the next week). The pain was completely gone after the surgery. Now I am three months out and feel fantastic! His team and staff were also helpful throughout the recovery process with the Sportsmed "Get Well" portal app. It was a very helpful tool for communicating with the doctor and his PAs during the post-op period. If you have any doubts or fears about ACDF surgery, I would say that a few days of post-op discomfort definitely outweigh the unpredictable and chronic pain of a herniated disc! I highly recommend Dr. Dixit as a surgeon and would definitely see him again if I have any recurring back/spine issues.
Dr. Dixit is by far one of the best doctors I have encountered in a long time. He was very high-spirited and friendly. He also reviewed what the nurse had provided and went a step further to retrieve more infomation instead of accepting what was given.
From procedure to physical therapy staff, a good experience. It has been 12 weeks since surgery (L5/S1 fusion). I am in no pain, I can function much better, with minimal post surgical issue. Only needed pain medicine for 1-1.5 weeks post procedure. Happy with my results.
