Dr. Dillard’s focus is on improving a patient's function which entails reducing pain to minimal to resolved levels, and then strengthening and retraining the muscles, tendons, and ligaments to optimize function. He uses multiple treatment approaches, “Training in physical medicine and rehabilitation has taught me to look at injury and pain through a functional lens. I enjoy using all the tools at my disposal-ultrasound and electromyogram for proper diagnosis, injections (including regenerative medicine techniques such as platelet rich plasma injections and prolotherapy injections for joints, ligaments, and tendons), nerve blocks, osteopathic manipulation, proper nutrition for healing, physical therapy, exercise, proper flexibility, they all play an important role for achieving maximum health, strength, flexibility, that is conducive for a happy, enjoyable and productive life. It is also important to have a compassionate understanding of how loss of function and pain affects an individual’s daily life, and to have an understanding of the emotional aspect of pain.”
Dr. Dillard enjoys surfing (or anything to do with the ocean), motorcycling, and traveling, but mostly he enjoys his family and the people he loves in his life.
