Dr. Yale A. Fillingham

Dr. Fillingham performed my total hip replacement, and he was hands down wonderful. He answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable with the procedure. A consummate professional. The whole experience was very smooth, and the communication, especially about what to expect and what to do post-op, was great. Highly recommend.

I was in so much pain.And the doctor gave me injections in to my knees and am a new person today thank you Doctor.I love Rothman

Client My visit went excellent. To be able to see my x-ray and to know that the hip is well intact makes me feel real good. Dr. Fillingham did a real good job.

From beginning to end, my experience with Dr. Fillingham was excellent. He did a hip replacement for me. My recovery went well. His nurse was always available to help me through the questions that came up. I whole-heartedly recommend him should you be needing a joint replacement.

Loved my appointment with Dr. Fillingham. Caring, delightful, observant. Highly recommend.

The overall experience at Dartmouth-Hitchcock was very professional. Dr. Fillingham and his team were amazing from start to finish. I am so satisfied with the results - I can put my socks on again!

Dr Fillingham and his team worked with me before, during and after my surgery. My endless questions were always answered and never ignored. My fears, concerns and even a few demands were not only heard but addressed with true understanding and compassion. My surgery was a life altering experience both mentally and physically and the Fillingham team was AMAZING. My heartfelt thanks to everyone!

I am thoroughly satisfied with all aspects of my treatment. Dr Fillingham and his team provided me with timely information and clear instructions. The Force online support program was extremely helpful, too.

What a positive transformative experience getting both hips replaced 6 weeks apart. The "demo" relief of a steroid shot during the prior holidays sold me on the surgery. I had mostly heard scary stories from those who had it done years ago with a posterior incision. With the anterior incision approach, as he said, the relief from pain will be instantaneous. It's just a matter of recovering from the surgery which entails PT on those long neglected and misused leg muscles. 100% accurate on both accounts. With some timing issues and concerns about a different disorder diagnosis I have, I stayed in the hospital the first time. From this, I realized that I really could do the second one as an outpatient. It's incredible to believe, yes, outpatient. People were amazed to see my transformation, and my 92 yo mother could hear on the phone the vitality I had in my voice. It's a whole new lease on life. He's warm and precise. Lastly, although I had my sincere doubts ("pain travels down"), it turned out that the left hip replacement virtually eliminated persistent left knee pain problems. Go with the best team!

Dr. Yale Fillingham, MD is a remarkable surgeon. He replaced both of my hips over the period of several months, and I was very impressed with the care I received during that time. I highly recommend you see him if you need this surgery.
