Thank you so much I am forever grateful! ♥ï¸Posted on Vikings FTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. As an aspiring musician, hand injuries are horrifying. I want to personally thank Dr. Dillinham for performing very successful surgery for a displaced tendon on my right hand on May 9th. I'm back to playing my bass with no issues. Great Job!Posted on Michele MTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Dr.Dillingham is the best doctor I have had for my rotator cuff repair surgery. I've had had 2 prior before this one. The pain was minimal when I woke up. He explains everything in detail and his bed side manner is pleasant! His staff makes you feel like your very important every time you walk into their office! I highly recommend Sworzo, Dillinghamand Stewart Orthopedics!

Very quick and they had interpreter ready when I came in and doctor was detailed.Posted on Anastasia NTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had a great experience with dr. Dillingham. I called with broken collarbone, they scheduled me for next day and my surgery was next day after appointment. Great experience with hospital they recommended me , everything overall 10 or 10. I had no insurance I called multiple offices and when they hear they where just hang up or become to be rude . Dr. Dillingham was very polite and treat me like everyone else. Offices who hear I have no insurance and bringing to be rude give automotive vibe that’s all they need it’s suck insurance money, while Dr. Dillingham seems like very nice forgot who care about patients health at first. I do motocross so probably not my lady broken bone , will definitely come back to dr. Dillingham in future. Note : I saw 2 bad reviews so I decided to add my experience. First time I arrived 30 mins early and was waiting only 10 mins, my second visit I arrived 5 mins early and they immediately took me to X-ray. After surgery I had few called from doctor office work question how do I feel myself.Posted on Benjamin STrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The office is exceptionally well run and professional. Dr.Dillingham is considered the best in the field. I had two other consultations with other surgeons and they told me I couldn't do better than here.
