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.

Great patient care
Dr. Lilly is an expert in his field. He’s professional yet personable and easy to talk to. He explains medical things in layman’s words and is patient, good listener. Recommend over other knee and hip doctors.

Highly skilled orthopedic surgeon
Dr Lilly was very kind and asked many questions about my hip problem. He told me all the options and answered all of my questions. His nurses and other staff at the EmergeOrtho offices in Hendersonville are efficient and friendly. The follow up visits have been just as good. And Dr Lilly did not make me feel rushed but as if he had plenty of timer to discuss whatever I needed to.

Knee replacement
Dr. Lilly performed a full knee replacement on my left knee on May 28th. I was able to walk with a cane within 2 weeks and with no assistance in 3 weeks. I highly recommend Dr. Lilly if you require this same surgery. He will be replacing my other knee in 2025. Dr Lilly and his staff made the entire process from prep-op, post-op and Physical therapy to a vey successful outcome.

Office Visit H'Ville EmergOrtho July 15, 2024.
After filling out forms online, I always expect to have to replicate the information on checking in, but this time I did not have to fill in ANY forms when checking in at office. Very pleasant surprise! My appointment was on time, and all personnel were very nice and professional. When I had X-Rays done, it was very comfortable and speedy. The office visit with Dr. Lilly was professional and thorough.

Good Experience
From the moment I arrived, I was treated well. Check-in was smooth; the nurse who brought me to the room was so nice and made me feel comfortable right away. Dr. Lilly was kind and explained everything to me. I was so pleased that he recommended physical therapy and didn't go right for surgery. All in all, it was a very good experience.

I have had Dr. Lilly perform total knee replacement on both knees, left in April right in September of 23. His expertise is outstanding, very caring, very knowledgeable. My results have been well above expectations. Would and have recommended him, for this surgery. Great Dr. And person.
