Reviewed on January 13, 2021 Dr Higginbotham has been my primary care MD for many years. We lost our insurance coverage due to job layoffs last year & Lakeshore/Evergreen wasn't available via the state when searching for a new provider. I consequently paid out of pocket (bill not yet received) because of my trust in the team there, espcially Dr Higginbotham.
Reviewed on January 12, 2021 very good
Reviewed on December 1, 2020 this is my favorite doctor that I have seen at any clinic. he immediately made me feel at ease and showed genuine concern for my health, not just for getting through the appointment. he also was very encouraging and looked at the long term of getting me back to full health and function, not just pain free.

Reviewed on October 21, 2020 Dr Higginbotham is a professional. He treats me like an adult and has a sense of humor. Honest, kind and caring.
Reviewed on October 12, 2020 We have been patients of Dr. Higginbotham for over 20 years. We stick with him because he's like doctors from the past. He spends time with you, he always explains things & is friendly & remembers our history. He's an amazing doctor & I regret we are moving to the midwest within a year, so, we won't have him as our doctor anymore. :(
