Patient Reviews
Aug 25, 2026
Our 5 year daughter needed surgery to repair an umbilical hernia that never closed after birth. From our very first consultation through the operation and post-operative care, Dr. Lillhei was patient, kind, approachable, and incredibly reassuring.He made our beautiful, smart, and brave daughter feel comfortable and safe throughout the entire process, which meant so much to us as parents. We felt completely confident that she was in excellent hands.Should she ever need surgery again, we would not hesitate to go back to Dr. Lillhei. We are incredibly grateful for the wonderful care he provided to our daughter and our family. We highly recommend him.
