He may be a brilliant surgeon, but a casting doctor he is not. My daughter woke up from anesthesia screaming and traumatized. It wasn’t until we removed her cast weeks later we understood it was because there was no padding between the cast and her body, and a plaster wedge had nearly cut through to her hip bone. My daughter is left with scars on both hips for life., not to mention how the experience mentally affected her young mind. Unfortunately he made us believe this had never happened before so while we switched doctors we didn’t pursue legal action. I wish we had, I met 3 other mothers online with similar outcomes- even burns from hot plaster. If I met 3 randomly online how many more are there?

Dr. Cahill and his whole team took very good care of our whole family during a very scary time! We were lucky he was our daughter’s surgeon, and her outcome couldn’t have been better!
