Meet Alice

I understand the importance of a whole-person approach in the treatment and care of my patients. We will discuss your condition, your treatment options and any risks that may be involved with a potential surgery. As a Robotically trained general surgeon, I have access to the latest technology, work with an experienced surgical team and have a compassionate office staff. I believe every patient will be faced with difficult healthcare decisions.

	August 2023 Good
	August 2023 I believe Dr Higdon does a wonderful job: before, during, and after surgery. She has kept me apprised of what to expect each step of the way
	August 2023 Dr. Higdon was easy to talk to and explained what needed to be done.Very professional.
	August 2023 Dr. Higdon was amazing. I felt like she had time for me and wasn't in a hurry to get out of the room. She asked several times if I had any questions. She is a very personable doctor. The kind everyone would want!
	August 2023 I was impressed with Dr. Alice Higdon. She was professional, yet personal at the same time. She gave me options I didn't know about.
	August 2023 I would definitely return if I'm in need of a surgeon again.
	July 2023 Dr. Higdon made me feel at ease and affirmed immediately. She allowed me to view my CT scans with her to explain my condition which is not something other providers have done. She allowed me to fully express my concerns and experience and addressed each one. I felt truly cared for and encouraged by her.
	July 2023 Was very detailed to where my 10 yr old understood what was going on. Couldn't have asked for a better dr. Very kind, caring, and explained everything from why I'm feeling ugh to the process, procedures, and possibilities that could but not usually but could happen. I won't go to another surgeon now she will be the one I want on my side every time!!
