Why patients choose Dr. Eilers
Two kinds of patients meet Dr. Eilers: the athlete with a season on the line, and the person whose ordinary day ended in a fracture. Both get the same thing — decisions made at the speed the injury demands, by a surgeon double-certified in orthopaedic surgery and sports medicine who has worked sidelines where wrong answers get noticed immediately.
