Patient reviews (150)
The doctor and nurses were very nice.
Honesty in keep moving
Best Doctor in town
I've said enough. Just very unhappy with him.
I will recommend him.
Best experience ever
I wasn't there to discuss knee replacement I wanted to understand what is going on with my knee but his disinterest in me overshadowed the visit.
He and his staff respond promptly to every phone call or text. He even gave me his personal cell in case I needed him. I didn’t have to use it, but that was above and beyond care.
Great care provided
would recommend any time
All good
May be I didn't like hearing the truth, that he wouldn't do hip surgery on me unless I lost weight. Weight is a sensitive topic that I wasn't expecting to hear, but I do appreciate his concern with my health and possible problems by having extra weight. They were able to get me into a weight management program.
Great staff
Awesome!
All good
Great staff
Great Doctor.
Would recommend Dr. Phillips for any orthopedic problems.
Dr Phillips was very attentive and was looking out for what would be best for my lifestyle and normal routine
Is picky on infections as I had a tiny scratch on knee and had to postpone for a month but happy he did. Incision healed quickly
I will always refer patients to him. Julie his nurse is a very kind and special lady
Pre-op classes were helpful.
Excellent service
Great Doctor
N/A
I’m so grateful for his expertise and knowledge. Wonderful doctor.
The Dr spent very little time with me and did not explain my condition/diagnosis to me
He is a 5 Star physician. His knowledge and compassion is the best of the best.
The doctor was very upfront about what he expect from his patient and that's what I expect from a provider.
Great team of professionals!
The doctor and provider are good. The biggest complaint I have is with the financial department. I gave them $6500 for my copay but the day of my surgery I found out this was going to be a workman comp claim. It has been over 5 months and I have not been reimbursed my copay despite me calling and emailing. I have never been called back and only had a response by email twice.
Excellent staff
Felt comfortable and at ease with both the nurse and doctor
He has always listened to my concerns & has always been honest & upfront with me
He is the best and I wouldn’t want to go to anyone else!!
...
Please quit using the my chart for me. Send a text email or phone call. Please
Now I know what’s wrong and what I can do.

He always explains things so you can understand him and the plan of treatment.
They were wonderful to deal with
Doctor Phillips stopped and leaned back in his chair and had a conversation with me about my surgery. I know he's a very busy man and greatly appreciated the time.
Dr. Phillips is an excellent provider!!
I would highly recommend Dr Phillips.
I always enjoy my visit with him
Dr. Phillips took the time to explain and answer my questions.
AWESOME!
Love the folks not the billing

Great surgeon who takes the time to listen to his patients. Only surgeon who I know who will give you his cell number so that you may text him at anytime with questions and concerns.
Asked questions
Felt like I was just another number
Everyone in Dr. Phillps' staff was extremely polite and caring.
I will recommend this doctor and this hospital to friends and family.
Dr Phillips took time for my questions and was very prompt in answering all text messages that I sent him. Couldn’t be happier with him!
Explained everything
He is very professional but also easygoing enough that you are instantly comfortable. He is MY surgeon from now on.
Each staff member performs efficiently.

Great doctor
His initial personality is warm and friendly but after the initial experience he seemed very business like.
Thank you for taking care of me.Iam very grateful.
Awesome doctor...he's my go-to guy for bones!
The Best!
I still think that he is a good surgeon and will continue with him for time being.
He appears to care about his patients even when they are super busy. I really appreciate him explaining stuff and making sure I understand.
The doctor and staff take great care of their patients
Very courteous & knowledgeable doctor & staff. Love Christus MF!
Really appreciate the care I received!
I love Dr Phillips. I however am upset with the way your company has changed your mamogram procedures. I used to recommend your mamaograms to everyone but not anymore since you took away the Dr's exam.
Took care of me...
Caring attitude.

Just an awesome doctor and staff
Exemplary

Excellent care!
Dr Phillips is a great Doctor and has taken great care of me.
Wait times were a bit extensive.
Great job.
My discharge nurse provided me with the best instructions I’ve ever had from any after surgery instructions
I feel like I didn't even need appointment. I felt certain it was arthritis based on x-ray report but I was referred by my normal physician do I went. I don't feel like I learned anything from visit. He did recommend Cosamin DS which I did purchase
Continue to keep up the great work you do.
Doctor Phillips is the best in every way.
Appreciate this doctor and his staff
Understanding
