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.

Doctor and nurse explained everything carefully. Returned my calls with questions quickly

Dr. Bilchik performed a very complicated surgery for cancer in June 2023. It was a very long and tedious surgery that he performed. Thanks to Dr. Bilchik I am in excellent health and cancer free. Me and my family can never thank him enough!!!!!!!

World Class MALS Surgeon
My daughter's rare and complicated health condition (MALS in a teenager) required a doctor who was experienced and knowledgeable in how to repair this condition while avoiding dangerous mishaps. Dr. Bilchik was able to open my daughter up and know what needed to be addressed and what did not in order to improve her blood flow and reduce her chronic pain. Few doctors in this country will do open MALS surgery on a pediatric patient, and of those, Dr. Bilchik is the finest. The team at St. John's Providence have experience caring for MALS surgery patients with kindness and compassion. I would not hesitate to bring any family member to Dr. Bilchik for surgery in the future if the need arose.

Amazing service, clear explanations
Dr. Bilchik was very patient and clear with what he thought was best for me to do. I had never had a surgery in my life (I was a little anxious because I had to be put under for around 2.5 hours) and had to have some skin removed that could have been cancerous. The cuts in the skin were very deep because I was born with this birthmark and had parts of it removed since I was in middle school. The recovery process following the surgery was smooth, and I did not need to use all of the medication that was prescribed for me. ~7 months later, I’m back in the gym exercising with my usual routine, and am back to normal. On top of that, the scars that I have from the surgery have cleared up tremendously, and I stopped using bandages ~45 days after the surgery.
