Dr Gilliland was wonderful in the experience in the ER, and the follow up. He was thoughtful and patient with my daughter, very knowledgeable and did an amazing job with her stitches.

We appreciated ow Dr Gilliland listened to our concerns and shared different approaches. He was very kind and patient with all of our questions.

We had a great experience with Dr Gilliland. He understood why we were there and how he could help. He was very apologetic and empathetic for the phone miscommunication when trying to make an appt and did not make us feel silly for having our daughter evaluated. As a pediatric provider myself, I will absolutely have no hesitancy referring my own patients to him if needed. So grateful for his time!

Friendly, knowledgeable, prompt
