Dr. Willkomm is amazing!!!!
He performed a hernia surgery on me Monday at Doctors Hospital and I was back to work on Tuesday with no pain meds and minimal discomfort.
This was my first surgery and I was nervous, what a relief!!!!
I would strongly recommend Dr. Willkomm to anyone.

I had a very positive experience with Dr. Willkomm getting a bowel resection for recurring diverticulitis. He and his staff were very professional, friendly, and provided good answers to our questions. No problems with the surgery at all, would recommend Dr. Willkomm highly.

Just Wow. This guy just blew all our expectations away. I was worried at first with a long wait time after checking in but within 5 mins with him you know why he could be late. He takes his time with you and you can tell he cares. He even drew pictures to help us understand all that was going to happen and did a wonderful job on my breast cancer. He even called us twice on different weekends to explain test results and reassure my wife. I will recommend this guy to anyone needing any type surgery.

Dr. Willkomm was recommended by my PCP because I didn’t know any surgeons here in Florida. I feel when I met Dr. Willkomm was one of my luckiest days. He was so personable that you really wanted to call him Chris but he was very professional. My surgery turned out to be more involved than I had expected but he handled it wonderfully. I’m doing very well currently.
When I told folks who my surgeon was they all had said he’s great don’t worry, so I didn’t. My family and friend who waited after surgery for Dr. to explain how my surgery went they also were very impressed with Dr. Willkomm. All my follow visits in the hospital and office visits again I felt like I was his only patient. So if I could do anything I certainly would endorse him 100% and would be more than happy to have him do any kind of surgery that I might need in the future.
So, thank you Dr. Willkomm for deciding to be a surgeon.

A good listener and a great surgeon. Dr Willkomm put me at ease with his knowledgeable and down to earth answers to my questions. I would consider it a privilege to recommend Dr Willkomm. He performed laparoscopic abdominal surgery on me and my recovery has been amazing

I just had an emergency gallbladder removal and received Dr Willkomm as my surgeon. He answered all my questions and put me at ease right away. My husband also felt I was in good hands. He was thorough but not rushed.

I have had 3 surgeries with Dr Willkomm, and my Father had 1. All I can say is I trust this man more than anyone I've ever known. His knowledge, bedside manner and caring has always put my family at ease. Thank you Doc!

I recently selected Dr. Willkomm to remove my gallbladder. At age 70+ this was my first surgery ever. I researched his background … medical school, years in practice, ratings on websites and discussed his approach to treatment with some previous patients that I know. He was extremely competent, easy to talk with, knowledgeable and pleasant…all without any "superior attitude". He explained the surgery in simple terms, the expected outcome and any possible side effects or recovery issues.

I am 72 and never had surgery in my life. I entered into this experience with some fear and apprehension. However, instantly upon meeting Dr. Willkomm I felt that he was treating me with the same care and expertise as if I was his father. I felt in good competent hands. I would highly recommend him to anyone in need of his skilled profession.
