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.

He is personable and forthright in his communications. After my surgery I know that he is an exceptionally good surgeon.

I have been a patient of Dr. Gilmore for 8 years for my knee and more recently for a shoulder injury. My experiences have been 100% positive. In 2020, I had a full rotator cuff tear and a complete rupture of the longhead of the bicep. I was given a choice by Dr. Gilmore to do a round of rehabilitation or have surgery. At 60+, I felt time was of the essence, so I had a full cuff repair arthroscopically, followed by 6 months of rehabilitation therapy. Dr. Gilmore is an excellent, well trained surgeon who is a great listener, compassionate and explains everything in layman's terms. He is an excellent Doctor with a wonderful staff. I highly recommend Dr. Gilmore as an orthopedic physician and surgeon.

Dr Gilmore is great. The clinic he works at, however, SUCKS. The office personnel have discriminated against me because of the location of my residence. Yeah, because I live in Sandoval County, PMG (and specifically the Unser Orthopedics division) Health Care Services no longer wants my business. However, if I were living in Santa Fe County, I would be an acceptable patient. I know it doesn't make any sense but it's the truth. Just think y'all should know. Additionally, the office personnel were rude and discourteous when informing me of this ridiculous situation. You see, I was a patient of Dr. Gilmore's for the past 1 and a half years and I had never a moment when there was a problem with my excellent insurance not paying my bill promptly and in full. But it doesn't matter. Some a-hole on a power trip has decided my money is no longer green enough and this is but the first salvo in a long string of complaints with which I intent to flood these jerks. PMG, where's the Christianity?

There are no words to describe just how great Dr Gilmore is. I trusted him from the start and his surgical skills got me back on my feet and almost back to where I was prior to injury in record time. I am so lucky to have had him as my surgeon. His encouragement and acknowledgement of my hard work during recovery keeps me going. He is the best doctor I have ever had.
