What our Patients Have to Say…

"Dr. Hillmann- Thank you so much for performing surgery on me at the last minute. I know this was routine to you but it was anything but routine for me. I cannot tell you how good I feel."

 - J.D.

"I like having Doctors Hillmann and Lopez because they also take very good care of their patients. There is no waiting for months."

 - L. R.

"Dr. Hillmann- Thank you so much for the care you gave to my wife and the mother of our children. You cared for her like she was your own mother. You have no idea how precious that gift was to us. We will never be able to tell you how thankful we are that you showed her the same love and caring that we would have given her if we could. We ask that you accept the love and thankfulness that we have for you and what you have done for us as a family. We appreciate everything that you have done for us. God Bless You."

 - M. Family

"Dr. Lopez is a very caring and nice person besides being an excellent surgeon. He is very prompt, courteous and takes time with you. His work is excellent. We hope we never have to have surgery again but he sure fixed my husband up and corrected a very serious problem. I will recommend him to anyone. It is rare to find a doctor now-a-days who seems to really care about you."

 - D.K.

"Drs. Lopez and Hillmann were great in listening to my concerns while I was in the hospital. Both doctors were very pleasant and took a lot of time with me. I really appreciate them and would like to thank them. Surgery went fine and I know Dr. Lopez went out of his way to fit me in his surgery schedule. And Dr. Hillmann was great on follow up. Thanks!"

 - K.L.

"My surgery was excellent! No scars! (I showed my aunt who had the same surgery done and she was jealous!)  Dr. Lopez was very nice and comforting. I feel very lucky that he happened to be the one there for my surgery."

 - J.D.

"Dr. West - Thank you for taking care of me in my hours and days of need. You were very caring from the very start when I first met you in the emergency room of J.C. Lincoln North Mountain…Thank you for taking the extra time and effort doing the second procedure so I wouldn’t have to have a colon bag."

 - H.S.

"Thank you Dr. West for helping GREATLY to save my life."

 - K.C.

"Dr. West- Thank you for saving my life. You will always be in my prayers. Thank you again from the bottom of my heart."

 - R.M.
