Patient Reviews
Sep 07, 2018
Dr. Gilchrist saw my 2 month old baby without an appointment. I was told by a doctor in a different hospital I could wait a few months for surgery. Dr. Gilchrist immediately saw the issue, listened to my concerns and recommended surgery for the next day. He explained how the surgery works and made me very comfortable with agreeing to the surgery. I am Amazed with winthrop hospital, and now with our new surgeon.
