Read what our patients are saying about their experiences at Black Hills Orthopedic & Spine Center.

  • “I love physician-owned facilities -- And I believe all doctors would probably feel the same way -- almost(?). I believe it creates an atmosphere to be more personable with the patients and hopefully less pressure on the doctors? I am glad that I didn't just quit coming after I was better because there may be an underlying ongoing problem, and this way, we can ferret it out with time. Thank you, Dr. Chilvers, for informing me what the next option might be before I get really bad, or I get old and have an ongoing problem without having taken care of it when I could've.”
