Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Great caring physician
Dr Hilliard is caring, gentle and is down to earth. He is very knowledgeable and is highly recommended by his colleagues. I’m a 42 year veteran of the OR. Being an OR nurse, I’m very picky about my doctors. I highly recommend Dr Hilliard. You’ll love his care and appreciate his comforting ways. He’ll put you at ease if you need hand surgery.

Put my hand through a table saw. Dr Hilliard was on call and he rebuilt my hand. Multiple Orthopedic surgeons has seen the work that he did after seeing the photos, and each Orthopedic surgeon has stated that Dr Hilliard did an amazing job on my hand. He has always been honest and upfront with me. Answered every one of my questions to my satisfaction and has been available. The staff have been nothing but amazing, and if you leave a message they will call you back inside 24 hours.

After having Needle Aponeurotomy twice for Dupuytrens Contracture, I found Dr. Hilliard on-line...for my third procedure. After reading many reviews, I made my appointment. He and his staff are VERY courteous, professional and friendly. Dr. Hilliard is exceedingly thorough, focused and obviously very accomplished. I never felt rushed. The results have proven to be what I had hoped for and more. I have bone-on-bone arthritis in both thumbs, which is quite painful, and had been worsening. After the NA release, the arthritic thumb pain has diminished considerably...the Dupuytrens had been terribly exacerbating that pain. Major kudos to Dr. Hilliard and his great staff! As a long suffering victim of Dupuytrens Contracture and previous experience with other doctors, I very highly recommend Dr. Hilliard and his team. I would definitely choose him again.

The office staff is friendly however, the doctor does not explain thing well or take time to listen or give alternatives. If you choose to use Dr. Hilliard, please learn from my mistake and get a second opinion. I wish I would have, it would have not only saved me a surgery but would also have saved me losing most of the movement and use of my dominant hand.

Dr. Hillard took the time to listen to me about the issues that I was having with my wrist. He explained all the options in a clear and concise way that I could understand and make the best choice for me. Should I move forward with surgery I will certainly let Dr. Hillard perform the procedure for me. A very down to earth caring Doctor.

Fantastic Dr and staff. Couldn't be happier with his care and the caring attitudes of his entire staff. Got in as a last minute appointment and was taken care of like I had been seeing them for years. Anytime in the future that I have a need for his type of specialty, I will not hesitate and would highly recommend his service to anyone. Thank you.

Dr. Hilliard is very knowledgeable and informative. He diagnosed my issue quickly, administered treatment, and told me exactly what to expect. He explained my condition in terms I understood and answered all of my questions clearly and completely. Wait time was not long at all and he and his office staff are extremely friendly, professional and cheerful. Dr. Hilliard definitely gets my recommendation and I've already referred a co-worker to him.

Dr. Hilliard and his staff are absolutely wonderful. There could not be a better hand doctor than Dr. Hilliard. He and his staff are kind, considerate and very caring. The actually care about you and what you are going through. Your care is not about them...it is about you and that is hard to find these days! Had it not been for Dr. Hillliard and what I was going through with another doctor, I do not know if my hand would have ever gotten better. He and his team are First Class!!!

I was set for surgery on 10/31/17. I arrived at the surgery center and was told the surgery would last no more than 30 minutes. I was prepped for surgery & an IV was started. The nurse asked me about meds I was on and when I told her I was getting over a staph infection 3 weeks ago, that was all she needed to hear. After almost 2 hours of waiting for Dr. Hilliard, he came to see me. Asked to look at where the infection was. Then told me I would have to wait 2 more hours! I was too through

Dr. Hilliard did surgery on my trigger fingers in 2015, and that has been a success. I have now returned to him to do surgery on another trigger finger due to his expertise, understanding of the problem, sensitivity and a previous positive experience. His nurse and office staff are very helpful as well.
