Dr. Wickersham is more than a doctor, he is a healer. I've been a patient for 12+ years & am beyond grateful for his expertise, professionalism, the time he takes to listen, answer questions & explain things. I trust him implicitlShow morey & know I'm in good hands! Consistently, despite his very busy practice, he makes me feel like I'm his only patient of the day, (which I know isn't true). He is kind, patient, empathic & personable. His P.A. Miss Allison is also exceptional! The office runs like an efficient, well oiled machine. At the present time, circumstances require me to live out of state; I fly in for office visits! (*I cut corners elsewhere to make it work). Literally, everyone in my life, (close friends & family), albeit sometimes unsolicited, know about Dr. Wickersham & my reverence for him. I feel blessed to have him & his staff in my life.

Dr Pendleton is a very knowledgeable and respectful practitioner. He doesn't force anything on you, He listens and then offers advice that is agreeable to your health perspectives. He is a wealth of knowlege.and is always ready Show moreto share his years of learning with others. At my last visit, he had a student in the room during the appointment. He first asked for my permission..He has just come out with a book that would benefit all of his patients...He spent three years putting it together. It is well worth the purchase and can easily be understood in layman's terms.

I’ve been a patient of Dr. Wickersham for at least 15 years maybe more. He is THE BEST doctor i’ve ever had the pleasure of knowing. He’s kind, caring and most knowledgeable in his profession and very helpful in treating my conditions. I will never change him for any reason. The only reason I would no longer be a patient is if he retires or I am not around anymore. He’s the best!!!

Patricia S. • September 05, 2026

First, I am not from San Antonio. Although I was born here. I have had the privilege of being a patient of Dr. Wickersham and trust him with my care. He is a patient, knowledgeable, and demonstrates empathy for his patients. He is one of the best doctors I have seen here or where I live.

Dr. Wickersham is like my main doctor. I run everything by him and he is kind enough to listen and give his opinion, I have a complicated medical history. His input is valuable.

Linda J. • September 01, 2026

I have seen Dr. Wickersham as a rheumatologist for almost 10 years. I am not from San Antonio. I come to San Antonio once a year to see my doctors here. San Antonio should feel proud that they can be seen by a competent, knowledgeable, and compassionated doctor. He is truly one of the best doctors I have seen.

Best rheumatologist I have ever seen. Dr. Wickersham is excellent at determining the problem and getting you back to feeling well in a reasonable manner. He is professional, kind, brilliant and has kept my life with RA under control and being able to live a normal life. Excellent staff and a very efficiently run office. Highly recommend.

Alice A. • August 07, 2026

I have never given a five star rating to any Doctor or his/her staff but after being a patient of Dr Wickersham going on two years I have had to relent and do so. Five full merit stars is their score.

Robert O. • August 07, 2026

Dr Wickersham is an excellent rheumatologist. He listens to his patients and offers solutions. He just gets what his patients are dealing with and conveys that in his care. I’m so glad he is my physician and finally after 35 years with Lupus someone is actually treating my disease properly. I highly recommend him!!
