Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

I’ve been a patient of Dr Dillard’s since 2005. She has always given me her full attention and has answered any questions I’ve had about my health care. I love the office workers and the lab and patient care nurses that have cared for me over the years. I get test results promptly after they come in . I have seen both Dr Dillard and her nurse practitioner,Heather. Both have provided excellent care to me and my family .

Not likely
The girls in the office are not willing to help anyone. They just make excuses so they don’t have to do anything.

She is a quack. Was in office 4 hrs for appointment. Wants to do all these tests and charge you for things she did not do , but not help you after all the testing. Then wants to give you a stupid reply about diagnosis when she does not know what she is talking about. Front desk staff and nurses are rude also.

The most unprofessional pratice I have experienced yet. She reffers you out to a bunch of specalist, which is great! Yet, doesnt explain to you that if you fail to tell her every prescription given to you by any specialist, controlled or not, she will just stop filling medications you need without hearing you out. Instead the office calls the day of you appoinment to let you know that its pointless to come in. Had I known baclofen was such a big deal after oral sugery.. i would of called!!!

her staff is rude and has no customer service at all, and it is all about money with her. my husband had to come back the next morning for lab work and they wanted another copay from him, which should have been considered a follow up appointment from the day before because they are the ones that didn't want to do lab work on his schedule appt. day. she needs to get control of her staff or she is going to lose more people and have to get rid of some of the rude girls. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME GOING
