My surgery with Dr. Gilliam was a refreshing success! I had suffered with allergies, sinus infections, and obstructed breathing for so long, that I had forgotten how wonderful it felt to "Breathe Freely." The surgery was just as explained to me and the healing time quick, with only a few days of manageable pain. I recommend the surgery for all those who suffer with similar symptoms.

Dr. Gilliam,
I'd like to pass on a couple of comments and observations since becoming a patient. If someone gets it right, I am quick to praise. If someone gets it wrong, I am really quick to lower the hammer. You and your staff seem to understand how to do things right.
I took great care and due diligence in deciding upon your services. Because I work in insurance and handle occupational injury and professional liability claims, I see the good, bad and ugly in medicine every day. Therefore, I was going to make sure I found an excellent doctor for my long term Allergy and ENT needs.
In deciding upon a doctor, I narrowed my scope to ENT’s in stone oak since I live and work in that area. From there I checked credentials, verified board certification, read articles, checked the TMB website and made inquiries through my sources affiliated with medical schools. It was worth the time and effort to narrow my choices and to ultimately select you.
I always carry reading material with me for long waits at airports and doctor offices but never seem to be able to finish an article at your office because you all are usually on schedule. You have a pleasant staff that is enjoyable to work with. I appreciate Yvette's ability to navigate the insurance maze for quick approval of allergy treatment and surgery, and to keep me informed of the status. I also appreciate that you do not appear rushed within your 10-15 minutes of patient time and that you thoroughly explain conditions and answer questions.
You have built a good practice; keep it rolling.
Regards,
Lesley

From my first visit to most recent, December 18th, 2008 for outpatient surgery, everyone (no pun intended) from the office staff to Dr. Gilliam have been very friendly and very accommodating to my needs and with my appointment scheduling. - I was a little scared to have sinus surgery, but after consulting with Dr. Gilliam it was like, "Ok, when can we do it?". Thank you Dr. Atkins for referring me to Dr. Gilliam.

After dealing an acute sinus infection that had been treated with a several rounds of antibiotics my primary care physician referred me to Dr. Gilliam for further treatment and evaluation. Seven months later I am still feeling great! The sinus infection was cleared up and hasn't returned. It has been really nice getting thru the holiday season without having to see anyone for the 'yearly' fall sinus infection. Thanks a million doc!!

Dr. Gilliam has been very patient-oriented which is not something someone can be taught. She has been very helpful to me and my family. Her caring surely comes through at each visit we have had at her office. The staff has also been helpful.

I feel Dr. Gilliam provided caring service and explained in detail any procedures that my son went through. Connie was especially patient with me with any rescheduling I had to do.

She's great! I went to another ear doctor for 6 months with him changing ear drops every visit. My ears kept getting worse. I asked my P.C. for a new doctor and he sent me to Dr. Gilliam. She cleaned out my ears and said no ear drops for 2 weeks! She said don't put any drops or anything into my ear, just clean the outside. I have wax build up that she does clean every 6 months. My ears are so much better.

Dr. Gilliam did thyroid surgery on me this year with total success and a barely visible scar. Equally as important, she reassured me from my last OV and lowered my anxiety level. Now she treats me for sinus related problems. I live in Boerne and do not hesitate to drive 32 miles and 45 minutes to see Dr. Gilliam rather than go to someone same type of doctor in Boerne or San Antonio. Dr. Gilliam is the best ENT doctor and surgeon. I have ever seen in San Antonio, Boerne or other city! Her MA Connie is very helpful as is Jessica, the receptionist. Her office is very professional with a minimum wait time. We need many more doctors like Dr. Gilliam. I strongly recommend her.

I have been battling sinus infections going on 5 years now and have seen specialist after specialist to try and get my problem under control. Dr. Gilliam is the only physician I have found that has been able to reduce my symptoms and get me back on my feet. She is able to explain her reasoning in layman's terms and has a kind and caring spirit. Her staff is exceptional at their jobs and always friendly.
