Dr. Kilbride and his assistant Chad and Erica are an unbelievable team. Dr. Kilbride brought me back from not even being able to walk to doing squats deadlifts and able to run. He’s worked on my arms and he’s gonna work on him again. I’m so grateful for him and the team he has surrounding him thank you Austin Orthopedic Institute

This man is exceptional! His PA, C. Fontana, is just as exceptional. I LOVE the way they work as a team, very educated on their profession. There’s no hesitation in his abilities to perform the surgical procedures in question. His confidence and ability to perform has been proven. As a previous patient of 2 other surgeries, he will be my “orthopedic surgeon” for life, if needed.
There could’t be a better specialist that treats their patients like this.
