This was my first visit with an orthopedic Dr. Dr. Lilly explained my issue in detail and informed me of my options going forward. He took time to answer all my questions and was not rushed in our conversation.

Dr. Lilly answered some questions I had about my left hip. I had an X-ray taken of my hip before I saw Dr.Lilly and he explained everything about my hip and there is no bone on bone to worry about!

The Dr was great, but the x-ray technician was as hateful as a caged up badger.

Dr Lilly was awesome, an answer to prayer. I tore my rotator cuff again. He was standing in for a doctor in the Walk-in clinic where I go. He agreed to do the steroid injection I was scheduled for next week, because I’ve been in such pain. He is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable & gave the injection with minimal discomfort. I felt blessed to see him this morning. All of their office staff is always awesome too!
