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.

Dr. Williams is very knowledgeable.
I have had both hips replaced by Dr. Williams, one in 2020 and the other in 2022. I was very pleased with the outcome of both surgeries. I just finished Physical Therapy and enjoy being mostly pain free and in time I'm sure it will be all gone. Dr. Williams is very friendly and caring. He is willing to do whatever is necessary to help alleviate your pain. I was able to get in for an appointment quickly and surgery was scheduled shortly after. Taking X-Rays in the office eliminates another appointment, which is great. The office staff is also very friendly and caring. I would recommend Dr. Williams to anyone who needs joint surgery.

My experience was significantly less than stellar, I asked for treatment options twice. The first time he gave me more info about the prosthetic, the second time he said "you're not living you life." Neither he or any member of his staff every showed the slightest interest in what was important to me, treated a lot information like it was on need-to-know basis. Everything I needed to know for the rest of my life was not discussed with me until after surgery so it was too bad for me that one of those things genuinely upset me to learn about. His PA literally trivialized my feelings about that cause he said the words"Most people think that's trivial."

I was very disappointed, I was doing therapy and he told me it wasn't going to help me. I always believed that the stronger my muscles were when I went in to surgery the better the outcome. When I started therapy my muscles had atrophied. Because of this disagreement I decided he was not the doctor for me.
