I love Dr Remillard he always listens to me and is honest about what he does and does not know...an honesty I most greatly appreciate. He goes above and beyond for his patient. I love his nurse Joan she is simply wonderful and truly make you feel like you are family when you are there. Regina the office manager is just the sweetest with her warm smile. I truly love not only Dr Remillard and his down to earth style but his whole office they are wonderful.

I am a MD from Taiwan and I've known Dr. Remillard for years. I think he is a “real doctor”. He reminds me of the good old days when your doctor knows about you , do care about you and you have the trust and confidence that he will help you. He is a doctor who listens by heart, and he responds accurately and precisely following his clinical assessments. He is very professional—from taking out an ingrown toenail to recognizing my son’s newly onset heart murmur, he is just the person whom you can rely on, especially when times in need. Dr. Remillard is also the doctor who understands the economic constraints of our “normal people”. He is not the type of person who would just tell you “I’m sorry to hear that”, but he would be on your side to help you solve the problem, if his ability permits. Lastly, it is a fair statement that nowadays it is getting really hard to find a doctor that you spontaneously feels this respect and gratitude for the things that he’s done for you and your family.

Worst ducking doctor ever never really checked my mom well numerous times I seen her so i that I recommend her to be taken to the hospital when he didn’t. Now she’s gone and he refuses to fill out paperwork for the insure ave it’s been at the facility for 6 months now. Saying he doesn’t k ow about when he clearly signed the bottom of it but didn’t fill out her medical info. Then he say the form again andsaid he didn’t have time to fill it out he had to reaearchbher chart. He’s awful I tell ya! Then his nurse takes up for him and hangs up the phone on me. What kind of nurse does that kind you never never did any bad words besides asking what’s the best way to get this form filled out she said don’t bring it here. Let it at Shelby ridge but then ag the same time tell me he can’t reneber to fill it out when he goes up there. Like really ........ His office and work sucks

We have always been able to get in in a reasonable amount of time. Usually the same day. Dr. Remillard is awesome.

I received poor medical care from Dr. Remillard's office and I believe my visit caused me harm. His nurse sprayed water in my right ear and I left with a feeling of water trapped inside. Later that night, I developed ear pain and by the next morning, I had a painful earache. Three months later and I'm still dealing with these symptoms. My new ENT told me that Dr. Remillard's office used the wrong method of treatment on me. My new doctor uses a vacuum suction device to remove ear wax.

I was hesitant about booking an appointment here after reading all the responses. Well they are all true. This doctors office does not return calls.
I seen this dr two weeks ago, and have yet to hear anything back after leaving two voicemails.
I have since had to book another appointment with another dr.

Dr. Remillard is great and he is very kind and thorough. His front desk receptionist is very unfriendly and not helpful. She is abrupt and has no compassion for patient's needs. But he is worth the pain once you get to him.

Dr Refilled himself is great but his office is the worst. They over book appointments and you will never be seen quickly. The office staff is not friendly and apparently not even thorough. I'm finding a new doctor now as they called in my blood pressure Rx with the WRONG DOSE! Half the dose that I've been on for a year! If this had been an elderly patient who didn't check the dose they would not have gotten the needed medicine. Just not good...

Very attentive and not quick to rush you out the door with prescriptions in hand. I rather wait a little in a room knowing he's giving his utmost attention to his patient's needs - not to mention that he saved my wife's life (abscess appendicitis).

Dr. Remillard is our family physician. He is wonderful, listens, takes the appropriate action to do anything we need. He has seen me thru a stroke, and my husband is in Hospice care now for alzheimers, parkinsons and heart problems. Dr. Remillard is the one we trust and helps us thru all the questions and getting us what we need. I would recommend him highly to anyone looking for a caring, down to earth family physician.
