I went in for a Prostate exam, my PSA numbers were slightly elevated. During the exam the Dr. found 2 nodules but he did not stop there he did a full work up. What he found was two tumors with a Gleason count of 8 to 10, very aggressive cancer. He scheduled surgery to have the prostate removed. During surgery he found 2 more tumors both with a Gleason count of 10 out of 10. Because of the low PSA numbers most doctors do not do an exam I know! Dr. Hillyer did do an exam and did not stop there, Thank You Dr. Hillyer ******. Bob

Dr Hillyard went above and beyond when treating my mother. I wish all doctors were as attentive to the patients needs as dr Hillyard. I would recommend him to anyone needing to see a Urologist.
