She helped “cure” my rotator cuff with PT and didn’t recommend surgery. I was amazed that any surgeon wouldn’t want to operate! Very nice, listened to my concerns and even offered to look at a friend’s knee because the friend couldn’t get a straight answer from any ortho doc. I recommend Dr Pillai to everyone.

Dr. Pillai gave me ALL my options when I presented to her with a shoulder injury. As a 47 year old who is very athletic, I wanted to maintain optimal use and return to the same quality of life. She recommended surgery IF I wanted to continue doing the same activities. I opted for surgery for a labral tear and am now better than ever! A year later, resuming my normal activities and my shoulder is stronger. Great physician to go to with athletic related injuries! A big thanks to Dr. Pillai

I was very apprehensive about having shoulder surgery. Dr. Pillai and her staff, especially Lauren V., were very patient with me and accommodated my concerns. I feel fortunate that I had someone of Dr. Pillai's skill and expertise to do the surgery. Everyone, even my cardiologst, told me that I was in the best of hands, so I went into the procedure with 100% confidence. Dr. Pillai is excellent at pain management. It's been minimal a week out of the surgery.

Six weeks out from total shoulder replacement. Never needed prescription pain meds. All is progressing without issue. Dr. Pillai is an outstanding physician who takes time to answer all your questions, explain your treatment options and leaves you with confidence in her ability. Highly respected by hospital staff. Her office staff are also off the charts.

Dr. Pillai treated me as conservatively as possible and only recommended surgery when absolutely necessary. Surgery was a positive experience.
