About Dr. Gill
Specialized hip and knee reconstruction focused on precision, recovery, and long-term outcomes.
Dr. Gill treats patients seeking relief from joint pain when conservative treatment is no longer enough.
His practice focuses on modern joint replacement techniques designed to improve recovery and restore function.
A Focused Surgical Practice
Care is centered on a select group of procedures, allowing for consistency, precision, and a streamlined patient experience.
Muscle-sparing technique designed to support early mobility and a more natural recovery.
Robotic-Assisted Knee Replacement
Advanced planning and execution designed to improve alignment, balance, and implant positioning.
A targeted option for select patients that preserves knee ligaments, allowing quicker recovery and more natural joint mechanics.
Outpatient Joint Replacement
Many procedures are performed in a specialized ambulatory surgery center, allowing patients to recover at home.
Approach to Care
Joint replacement is considered when symptoms meaningfully impact quality of life and non-operative treatments are no longer effective. The goal is not simply to perform surgery, but to perform the right procedure, at the right time, with a clear plan for recovery.
Each step of care—from evaluation to postoperative follow-up—is designed to be efficient, coordinated, and predictable. Attention to detail in surgical technique, pain management, and rehabilitation all contribute to the overall outcome.
Patients are guided through the process with clear expectations, with an emphasis on returning to daily activities safely and confidently.
Dr. Gill lives in East Tennessee with his family and remains actively involved in the local community.
