Dr. Gillis is wonderful! I saw Dr. Gillis the day following an ankle fracture. I was 20 weeks pregnant at the time and was very concerned about the treatment options. Dr. Gillis gave me all the information I requested and was able to reassure me that surgery was the best path forward. His bedside manner is outstanding and he really makes you feel like he cares.

Dr. Gillis is an examplary surgeon and a wonderful doctor with an amazingly personable "bedside manner." He not only healed my trimalleor ankle fracture back in June 2024 when I fell down stairs, but guided me through recovery and then, most recently, operated to remove the metal hardware from my ankle.
