Dr. Jonathan W Schilling, MD

Great Provider

Dr. Schilling was amazing. He made me feel like we were a team, working to resolve my health issue. I was completely informed and educated on every single aspect of my recovery to date, plus what to expect going forward. The decision was clearly mine and he gave me everything I needed to make the best decision. Phenomenal visit. I feel lucky to be under his care.

Dr. Schilling did an excellent job of explaining the problem (and the solution).

Dr. Schilling and his staff are very thorough and understanding.

Dr. John Schilling has operated on me in the past. His ability to communicate on a level that I can understand, brought me back to seek his thoughts on a old problem that had been bothering me again. He was very frank with me and told me what he thought was the best way for me to move forward. I would highly recommend others to seek him out if they needed a surgeon!

I am new to Dr. Schilling, but would recommend him without reservation.

Dr Schilling told my family my mom needed intestinal blockage surgery, we were trying to avoid surgery, he convinced us there was no other option, told my family he was performing the surgery , said he removed the blockage and the surgery went well, only to find out UC Residents were taking care of my mom and blockage wasn't removed until a week after surgery she was given an enema, that took cake of the blockage. I would not recommend Dr Schilling, I believe he lied to my family just so the Residents could gain the experience.needed for the surgery I specifically asked beforehand are there any other options, didn't want to put my 82-year-old mother through surgery, he flat out told us surgery, I believe she was used for educational gain only

I had my gallbladder removed last yearby Dr Schilling. I wish I would have got more options because it has been horrible experience. My life has not been the same. It has taken over a year to get my body back into sync. My bowels are now relying on mirlax to have a movement and I cannot eat many foods I used to enjoy... and they are not fatty foods just normal healthy foods. I was and still am a very clean eating person so I don’t really understand why my gallbladder was removed . I didn’t have stones or sludge, I should have got another opinion. His office is nice and he is nice and does spend time talking about reasons to have it out he convinced me to have the surgery because of all the things that COULD happen if I didn’t. I cannot put it back all I can do is move forward with my life. I have never had any health issues but this has definitely put me in a tale spin. So make sure you do you do diligence before you agree, he told me we function fine without a gallbladder… we don’t really need it to live .... but your life will be very different it was for me. I have spoken to a few other people that have had the surgery and they were told the same thing.. you can live normal life w/o it If it is not a life or death situationlook at other options. I wish I would have .

Should be more prompt on initial first visit....30 mins late. Dr. was engaging, and pleasant. I felt that my comments and concerns were listened to and addressed. I felt comfortable with his level of knowledge and confidence. Totally comfortable with the surgery and outcome thus far---3 days out. Recommend Dr. Schilling for abdominal surgery.
