      My entire experience with Dr Thuillier, Stephen Johnson, and the rest of the team has been very positive. I had excruciating ankle pain for five years and since my replacement surgery, the pain has been very minimal. Now five weeks post surgery I have absolutely no pain and I am so thankful for Dr Thuillier
