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 suffered a compound fracture of my right femur on April 14, 2021. Dr Hilborn repaired the damage to my leg and has provided excellent follow up care post surgery. I couldn't have asked for a better Surgeon. He is honest and up front with his patients. He gives solid advice for the healing process, and is a generally personable individual. I would definitely recommend Dr. Hilborn to anyone needing the type of medical sevices he provides.
