About Me

Joined MetroHealth: 2023
Academic Affiliations: Assistant Professor, Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine

I’m a physician specializing in Physical Medicine & Rehabilitation and Pain Medicine at MetroHealth. I was born and raised in Northeast Ohio, went to medical school at Ohio State, and returned home to complete my training right here at MetroHealth.

My goal is simple: to help people live the life they want. That means working together to treat pain and overcome the physical challenges that can hold us back. I believe every person deserves care that’s thoughtful, respectful, and focused on their goals.

Outside of work, I love spending time outdoors and getting lost in a good book. I’m proud to serve this community and honored to be part of your journey toward better health.

I am interested in utilizing clinical imaging to inform rhizotomy (radiofrequency ablation) targets.

I would recommend him to anyone. He's very nice and he doesn't believe in giving people pills or anything, which is nice.

He was a great pain management specialist and he was kind and respectful to me and my daughter. He answered our questions. Thank you for listening to me.

Dr. Hillery, listened thoroughly, was familiar with my chart/xray results, understood my concern, explained my symptoms and the condition in a way that made sense to me. Dr. Hillery introduced himself not as a doctor, but by his first time name which set the tone in a pleasant manner. He offered, after listening throughly to my time line of symptoms and a quick examination, a solution and the next steps should a follow up be needed.

Depending on their reason for asking I've recommended Metro for years. I've always had good care. But many people I've talked with told me just the opposite.
