Patient Reviews
Oct 10, 2023
Dr Wilkerson's office is run very professionally. The staff treats you like family and he is very thorough with your case. I have had two surgeries performed by him, one in 2015 (achilleas), and the other 2020 (rotator cuff). No concerns with neither after the surgery and therapy. I highly recommend if you're looking for an orthopedic surgeon, look no further.
