Considering the unexpected move/change due to building issues, the visit was so easy. Dr. Tilgner is my go to for all of my orthopedic problems and he has taken care of me with explaining what is wrong with options to correct andShow more giving me the say as to what we do. His nurse/med assistant was friendly and didn’t rush me to explain what was wrong. She was considerate and kind. The front desk person was dealing with her own difficulties with not having her needed equip. But she was unruffled.

I am one week post-op from rotator cuff repair with Dr. Tilgner and couldn’t be happier with the care I received! From the amazing hospital staff to Dr. Tilgner himself, everyone was compassionate, professional, and attentive. Dr. Tilgner is an excellent surgeon with a great sense of humor, always providing a good laugh to ease the anxiety of surgery. As a nurse, I truly appreciate exceptional care, and this team delivered! Highly recommend!
