Anne Vaz wrote one of the negative reviews. She use to teach at the skincare school in Southbury. I heard she bullied students she was jealous of and would trash them and cause drama. Anne has serious issues - she may be good at her field but I think she is bipolor and should invest her time in a good therapist. I knew her ex husband. I've seen Dr. H. and she's a good doctor

I was involuntarily assigned to an independent medical examination by Regina Hillsman for insurance purposes. The very fact that an orthopedic surgeon has to earn a living by doing insurance examinations out of state should say something about the demand for her medical and surgical skills. This is one intensely manipulative and nosy girl. She began by informing me that she was asking questions not because she was nosy, but because she needed the information for the examination. She then proceeded to ask me a series of nosy... read more

I have been going to Dr.Hillsman for about 10 years. I will not go to any other doctor. The staff is friendly and polite every time I have an appointment. Dr. Hillman is very knowledgeable and has a true passion for her work and patients. I would recommend Dr.Hillsman to anyone. I work in retail and I have had surgery on both my elbows and both shoulders. I continue to work in retail today with no pain : )

My first visit. I was told to arrive at 9:30 for paperwork. The receptionist didn't arrive until 9:45. After 1/2 hour of filling out form after form, which were quite redundant, I was shown into a patient room. Spent 1/2 hour with the nurse, answering questions that were on the forms I'd just filled out. She was hand writing my responses. Left alone for another 1/2 - 3/4 hour, poked my head out to inquire as to when the doctor would be in. Was told I was next. Another 15 minutes goes by. Doctor comes in and starts asking me ... read more

Dr. Hillsman is one of the if not thee BEST Orthopedic Surgeons. After being in an auto accident in 2009 and seeing a professor in the field, that in my opinion could not treat a "Common Cold". Who mis-read the MRI and failed to treat my knee injury and also overlooked the back injury. I found Dr. Hillsman and on my first visit after reviewing my medical records found the problems of my injuries, ordered new x-rays and a MRI. Within two weeks she performed corrective surgery on the knee and treated the back injury. Due to th... read more

I have been under Dr Hillsman care for over a year and could not ask for any better care. I could hardly walk and was told by the VA that I needed physical therapy. No tests, no MRI or X-rays. Dr Hillsman reviewed all of m medical problems with proper tests, injections and physical therapy. I now walk without a sign of a limp and am able to continue my service with the Fire Dept. She is a blessing and I will continue to see her for all my ortho problems and recommend her to anybody that could use her truly, caring and profes... read more

I have been a patient of Dr. Hillsman since 1996. Due to an injury in Vietnam, I have lost the use of my right foot. I have severe arthritis and have utlized a brace for a number of years. Since my surgery in 1996 and the use of a brace since then, I have been able to maintain the use of my leg and avoided amputation of the lower right leg. I owe this to the knowledge and expertise of Dr. Hillsman. I would recommend her to anyone having orthoptic issues.
