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.

Rude and totally unprofessional!
I had 2 surgeries with this unprofessional clown. The first one I know he messed up . I keep tell him something was wrong but he wanted to talk about him and audited not my spine he couldn't fix . Then He finally gets me a MRI And says the hardware malfunctioned and I needed a second surgery this time it was fusing my spine. I wish I wWould of gotten a second opinion. But I did the surgery anyways. My back still hurts. He put me on strong pain medicine for 2 years then just cut me off to let me be sick at Christmas time. After the second surgery I begged him for physical therapy and pain management referral. He told me he would refer me and never did. They scheduled me appointment then day of the appointment His office manager called and informed me that there was nothing more the doctor could do for me. Staff shouldn't be trusted with crayons much less a pen! Rude , unhelpful, unprofessional, and cares only about money. I pray for their soul.

Ran Away
Dr. Willits walked into the room and told me I would die at 30 if I didn’t have surgery, I was 14. At 17, I received my second surgery because the first one was done using experimental materials for the fusion. A different doctor performed my second surgery and during my hospital stay I learned a girl across from me received a similar surgery after a failed attempt by Dr. Willits. I could never find Willits to talk to him after the first because he had left the state. Who knows how many other kids he did this to. I’m 25 now and facing my third, and turning 30 hangs over me like a dark cloud because he decided it was a great idea to tell me I would die.

If you want someone to tell it to you as it is, and is going to be conservative with your treatment , this is the place for to be. Treated me with Injections and it had help tremendously He said surgery is the last resort, it took a couple of rounds of injections to work, but it feel great now Everyone else had told me I needed surgery Thanks Dr willits

I see Dr. WI'll it's for pain management. I have Ehlers Danlos. He has never treated me like I was drug seeking. He was compassionate and made me feel like he was listening. He actually knew about my condition.
