Dr. Gilliam became interested in medicine in general, and in orthopedic surgery specifically, when he himself received excellent orthopedic care following an accident at age 17. He since has returned to a very active lifestyle including bicycling, swimming, skiing and hunting. In fact, he has ridden the entire 570-mile Blue Ridge Parkway on a bicycle. As a physician, his goal is to help patients recover and enjoy their own active lifestyles.

Dr. Gilliam graduated from the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and has a special interest in orthopedic sports medicine, particularly arthroscopic shoulder surgery. He is married and the father of two children who are the delight of his life.
