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.

I came to Dr Wilson after suffering for 5 years with a bad hip. He was compassionate, kind and listened to my concerns. He answered all my questions and put me at ease about my surgery. He did a total hip replacement and after I woke up I could tell my pain was gone. I used a walker for couple weeks and cane for another week. 3 months after my surgery I feel like I have my life back. I can’t thank him enough for what he did for me.

Total Knee Replacement
I came to Dr. Wilson as an outside referral from Kaiser Permanente for a TKR due to osteoarthritis so I did not know what to expect. Each time I met with Dr. Wilson or his team members everything was clearly explained and all questions were answered. I never felt rushed. The surgery was amazing. Anytime I had a question, I would receive a quick reply from him or a team member. Now, three months post op I am able to do everything, i want pain free for the first time in 4 years. I even went on a cruise two weeks ago, did lots of excursions and climbed a Mayan temple! I highly recommend Dr. Willson to everyone.

Most amazing surgeon and kindest do I've ever had!
Dr. Wilson's excellent surgical skills gave me a whole new life. I was in constant pain for 2 years and could barely walk, but after a hip replacement by Dr. Wilson, I am walking normally and completely pain free! And he is such a nice person as well, always taking time to listen and explain things. He is one of those rare doctors that really cares about helping his patients.

The answer to a problem.
Being sick and in pain is not fun so you look for an answer, hopefully a skilled, compassionate and professional doctor. Dr. Wilson is that doctor. It took a year to find an answer, which includes a new hip, but once I found Dr. Wilson, the rest was easy. And the pain is gone!!!

Total knee replacement
Dr. Wilson was very kind and listened to every concern I had about my knees. He answered every question I had and since I had waited so long, I had plenty. My knees were in very bad shape. He worked a miracle and I am walking normal!

Total Hip replacement
When I first met Dr. Wilson I immediately felt at easy and confident that he is the surgeon I want to operate on me. Months after the procedure I am back doing what I was doing before the operation but without any pain.

Great doctor and very easy to work with!
I really like Dr. Wilson for my knee replacement surgery. He was pleasant to talk to and was very informative of all the questions we had. My husband had both knees done in 2018, 2019 with another dr. that is currently doing more administrative work currently so we went with the PA's suggestion of Dr. Wilson. We have been extremely happy with everything Dr. Wilson has done for me. I was considered high risk so I had to go downtown and stay one night. All the pre-op tests that he wanted and more that the anesthesiologist wanted were handled with extreme care and knowledge. Thank you for being so thorough! 5 stars all the way

Highly Likely to recommend for TKR
At the pre-op visit he listened to my concerns and answered every one. He did not hurry me. He actually did a hands on evaluation of both the TKR from the year before and the unstable knee I was walking on. He showed me the x-rays and what was causing the instability. He lusted to my concerns about medication reactions. Post operatively, he addressed my concerns about medication reactions and odd skin and pain reactions and discussed options with me. He continued to be as attentive at followup appointments and answered my email questions promptly. He addressed my concerns about my gait. I felt like he was as concered about how I was handling my recovery as he was about the knee replacement.

Great hip replacement experience!
I was pretty nervous about getting a hip replacement but Dr. Wilson is very friendly, attentive, and informative which helped me through the process. He never made me feel rushed and he always answered my questions thoroughly and in a way that is easy to understand and reassuring.The surgery itself went smoothly thanks to Dr. Wilson and his wonderfully friendly and attentive team. The recovery was surprisingly quicker and easier than I expected and made me wish I'd done the surgery sooner. I'm forever grateful to Dr. Wilson for giving me my quality of life back and highly recommend him!

Outstanding surgeon
I was referred to Dr. Wilson by Dr. Andrew Shinar since Dr. Shinar is no longer performing surgical procedures. I had severe pain on my right knee and Dr. Wilson surgically replaced my knee joint and I am pain free for the first time in many years. I couldn't be more pleased.

I was really happy to find Dr Wilson when we first met I was a little skeptical I asked him straight up how many surgeries has he's done what caught my attention was that he didn't try to talk me into staying with him in fact he was almost convincing to move me to co-worker of his and that's what made me stay with him he done a tremendous job and I would recommend him to do your hip surgery I was up and walking right after recovery

Dr. Wilson is the best!
Dr. Wilson is very caring, thoughtful and did an excellent job with my hip surgery! Dr. Wilson and his team were with me before, during and after my surgery. Very through and communication was always very timely. I highly recommend Dr. Wilson. If I ever need my other hip replaced, I’ll definitely have Dr. Wilson perform that surgery. He truly cares.
