Very nice
He’s great. Ran a bit late this time but nurse came in and let me know.
He was so delightful and personable yet honest, and even though we didn’t fix my problem yet he was sure willing to try step one
Wonderful doctor. Very caring and knowledgeable.
Since you wall in to the scheduling of the following appointment, everyone is very helpful and courteous. Doctor shillito answer any questions you could have.
Dr. Shillito is compassionate and very knowledgable. From the first visit he understood the pain i was experiencing and was gentle with my hand. I will be having basil thumb surgery next week and I am fully confident and in his expertise and looking forward to a pain free and functional hand.
The staff was awesome. I never had to wait long to see the doctor. The doctor took his time and asking me how I was doing. That was great.
Very respectful, kind man. Good sense of humor and very smart
First time meeting Dr. Shilllito, I received excellent customer service from Dr. Shillito and Staff. Very cordial and honest with his answers. Great communications skills and easy to understand. I am glad I asked for a second opinion and chose Dr. Shillito.
Dr shillito is so cool! 😎 Thank you Dr Shallito so you are using the words you used to get me to go ahead and do this cortisone shot because believe me I was not going to do it but the way you spoke to me and helped me get through it that's why I was able to do it. I'm very happy with you but I really not want to have another one and possibly have surgery and schedule for surgery the next time I see you I hope so. ☺️
