Yale A. Fillingham

Other reviews have noted Dr Fillingham’s quiet yet compassionate manner; I agree with all. What I noted in the course of my recent hip replacement is that I believe he sets very high expectations for himself and his support crew, and they all live up to those standards. I had my other hip replaced some years ago, plus revision surgery because of errors made, and I tried to find every possible way to avoid another surgery. I could not have found a better physician than Dr F. Responsiveness, thoroughness, expertise, you name it, Dr F and his staff excelled.

Dr Fillingham was professional, excellent bedside manner. He put my children at ease with the surgery and his follow up was beyond expectations. I highly recommend him.

Dr Fillingham agreed to take me on as a patient for knee revision surgery after a total knee replacement in 2021 with a different practice and surgeon. He did a full assessment ( complete with diagnostics) and gave his best opinion on my issues ( my knee was locking) that seemed to mystify my previous surgeon. His team did a great job preparing me for surgery and treated me with respect and professionalism. He was able to repair my problem with minimal distress to my very anxious body. He has a warm, calm bedside manner and is a great listener. What a gem.

Excellent surgeon. Very thorough and took the time to hear my concerns.

Dr. Fillingham performed my total hip replacement, and he was hands down wonderful. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable with the procedure. A consummate professional. The whole experience was very smooth, and the communication, especially about what to expect and what to do post-op, was great. Highly recommend.

I was in so much pain.And the doctor gave me injections in to my knees and am a new person today thank you Doctor.I love Rothman

Client My visit went excellent. To be able to see my x-ray and to know that the hip is well intact makes me feel real good. Dr. Fillingham did a real good job.

From beginning to end, my experience with Dr. Fillingham was excellent. He did a hip replacement for me. My recovery went well. His nurse was always available to help me through the questions that came up. I whole-heartedly recommend him should you be needing a joint replacement.

Loved my appointment with Dr. Fillingham. Caring, delightful, observant. Highly recommend.

The overall experience at Dartmouth-Hitchcock was very professional. Dr. Fillingham and his team were amazing from start to finish. I am so satisfied with the results - I can put my socks on again!
