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.

A great Dr. who listens to our conditions, and takes time to work with his patients. He knows how to use his skills as a family Doctor. to

Very disappointing!
My sister went 3 times in one week for extreme pain, nausea, and vomiting. He would not listen to what she was explaining. Pretty much begged for a CT or at least an ultrasound. Just kept prescribing different medicine. Ended up in the ER days later and had a CT. Diagnosed with DDD, sciatica and arthritis. Still working on the other issues that still have not been addressed. Disappointed with Gilliam and even the NEA ER Dr. (Baggs) was arrogant and didn't address all issues. I work in the medical field and am trying to get her in with another Dr and possibly change hospitals.

Ungodly wait time, spent 10 minutes with me.
Dr Gilliam was probably a great doctor at one point but is at the end of his career and just seems like he wants to go home. I waited 2 hours to see him past my appointment time and he spent 10 minutes on my yearly physical and didn't even check all the areas of my body my past doctors have on my physical exams.

Dr Gilliam is very knowledgeable about all health issues, and I always show improvement after seeing him when ill. He is good to remind me of all tests I need to have such as mammograms and colonoscopies.
