    I was fortunate to have Dr. Bilchik save me. He did emergency surgery for me when I had a perforation of my intestinal tract. (I'm not sure exactly what happened.) I saw my urologist, and he said, "You're not going home tonight." He told my son to take me to the hospital right away. And he called the emergency to expect me and said I needed care immediately. I don't remember what happened next, but I woke up after Dr. Bilchik did the surgery. And he saved me. He is not only an excellent, accomplished doctor but also a man of integrity, kindness, a humanitarian, and more.

    Dr. Bilchik is an outstanding doctor and human being. I had a pancreatic cancer tumor and on the brink of death! I am still here today because of Dr. Bilchik. He get's the job done and his staff are also great. The motto at St. John's is "Caring, Compassion, and Kindness" and Dr. Bilchik is a true representative of this kind of thinking. I totally trust him, his work, team and staff. As I am in the entertainment business, it is vital for me to stay healthy, healed, and hopeful and Dr. Bilchik is the rock that I stand upon. You cannot go wrong here. I highly recommend him without reservation. I also salute his prestigious work and loving beside manner!

    Dr. Bilchik is amazing. He is by far the leading expert in his field not just in California, but in the country. He saved a life that was very dear, his knowledge is impressive, and the way in which he communicates with family members is personable and at a level laymen can easily understand. He is very caring, and I highly recommend him.

    Dr. Anton Bilchik is the real deal. He is a great surgeon who my family trust. When our grandmother had to have cancer surgery, we were referred to him. He thoroughly explained the procedure she needed to have. My grandmother had no reservation or doubt about his opinion and put her life in his hands. Today she is cancer free and living her best life thanks to a great surgeon that came highly recommended. For those who are reading this and all his reviews, know that Dr. Bilchik is not a fake and does not promote himself. He is far too busy taking care of his patients and has no time for nothing else. Also, please keep in mind that he is not God and not every case is the same. In our situation the cancer was found early enough before it began to spread. Wr are thankful for Dr. Bilchik for taking great care of our grandmother.

    Dr. Anton Bilchik has a great bedside manner, is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and a trustworthy cancer surgeon. After consulting with 3 other surgeons, I was given the name of Dr. Bilchik by a friend he also treated and was told he came highly recommended. I called his office on a Monday afternoon and his office staff was able to get me in to be seen the next day. I could not believe I was able to get in that quickly to be seen. I met with Dr. Bilchik, and he thoroughly explained the type of surgery that I would need. He called it a robot hemicolectomy. He even drew a diagram that helped me to understand how he would perform the surgery. He answered all my questions before I left, and I was able to get my surgery the following week. My surgery was at St. John’s Health Center, and I was cared for by some of the most loving and caring nurses. I remained in the hospital for a couple of days and then was sent home. My recovery was better than I had expected, and I was back to my old self in a couple of weeks like he predicted I would be. I am so very thankful my friend gave me his name and spoke so highly of him. I had a great experience from introduction to my follow up care. Now, I too am recommending him to all my friends and family. The only thing I regret about my journey is that I did not meet Dr. Bilchik first.
