Patient Reviews
Jun 23, 2025
Two years ago, I had hip replacement surgery done by Dr. Tilzey. Almost immediately post-op, I experiened severe pain in my iliopsoas tendon, so I asked him if I could get a CT Scan to see what may be causing the pain. Dr. Tilzey refused and told me that the implant was in perfect positioning (X-Ray), and that there was nothing else he could do. Tilzey basically tossed me away like an old shoe. So, I therefore went to a surgeon at the Baptist who did a CT Scan, which showed that the acetabular cup was digging into my iliopsoas tendon! Unfortunately for me, by the time I had the revision surgery to correct Tilzey's colossal mistake, the damage was done. I now have permanent pain emanating from my iliospoas tendon. Overall, I found Tilzey to be narcissistic, arrogant, and down-right dismissive when it came to doing what was in the best interest of the patient. My advice is to select another otho. who will do what's morally right if there's a problem.

Never met a doctor that cares less about his patients. I took my father to him and I was absolutely appalled by the way he treated him. He is arrogant, rude and incompetent. When he makes mistakes he's more concerned about covering them up than fixing them. Definitely find somebody else.
