The most memorable thing I remember was that Dr. Bacilla prayed with me before my surgery...at his request. I wish he was still in Alexandria.

He has a way of talking to children like they on the same level with him. He explains everything in great detail. I would suggest him to anyone who needs an ortho surgeon.

Dr. Bacilla is a caring unselfish doctor. But more so, he is a caring human being. And today I can thank him for sending me to the expert needed to do the multiple surgeries needed to get me back walking after having been in a wheel chair for a year. There are not enough words to express my gratitude.

My experience with Dr. Bacilla was wonderful. Most ortho dr.'s have no bedside manner, he does. He is genuinely concerned for his patients and strives to do what is best and explains in great detail.
