Went to see Dr. Willis about a rt. Shoulder issue that's becoming worse/more painful with use. I'm a returning patient. I feel like Dr. Willis knows me and is familiar with my longstanding shoulder issues. In short, he's proven his proficiency and I trust him.

Dr Willis gave me a steroid injection in my right shoulder. I have a torn rotator cuff & need surgery. I have already had two rotator cuff repairs on that shoulder and will need a replacement next time. I have already had a complete total replacement in the left shoulder. Dr Willis did that.

After breaking my leg Dr Willis and his team took very good care of me and we're very attentive to my needs. The entire facility was kept very clean and I felt safe in his and his team's care.

Dr Willis repaired my left shoulder and I am very excited with the progress. He was my third opinion and when he explained the procedure I was sold. He made me feel like we had known each other for a long time. I was very comfortable after our consultation with Dr Willis conducting my surgery. Dr Willis did a great job.

SEEMLESS!!!! I went for my first appt as a new patient in early August. The staff that greeted me at the elevator & the check-in staff were professional but warm and kind. The check-in process was very quick and easy. Dr. Willis was running a bit behind schedule (maybe 45” to an hour?) because, hey, Doctors & Nurses are not ROBOTS all healthcare settings have to be Dynamic because the clients are HUMAN and have very different needs, issues and concerns!!!! The nice thing was that one of the staff members did come out and announce that Dr. Willis was running behind schedule, apologized and asked for our patience. I appreciate that proactive communication!!!
My visit with Dr. Willis and his nurse, Austin, was brief but direct. He explained the reason for my shoulder pain, discussed a full treatment plan, which would progress from least traumatic/invasive to shoulder joint replacement, be depending on my individual response to treatment. He smiled & actively listened to my concerns.

Dr. Willis was very professional and personable. He was never rushed taking time to listen and explain things to me. He was very knowledgeable advising me of the next course of action should what I try first not relieve my symptoms.

I had a shoulder problem. I gave the Dr. a copy of my X-ray and he knew what the problem was. He suggested a shot and that is what my primary doctor recommended.

DR. Willis is an excellent Orthopedic Surgeon. He was honest & forthcoming regarding expectations of post op success, R.O.M., as well as expected life of the device in this procedure: partial shoulder replacement. I did have some pain management issues in hospital, & unfortunately had to stay overnight. I do feel as though his rehabilitation protocols are on the conservative side for an ex-stunt woman. He appears to be a moral upstanding doctor, surgeon & humanitarian. My only complaint would be the 1 hour and 25 minutes I spent in the confined room, on my 2 month post-op follow up. Everybody's time is valuable. Nonetheless, I made good use of the step, my HRM & 3 minute step tests!
