Reviews of Lillehei Kevin O MD (Doctor)

Cristin Pring

2010 Dr Waziri was the doctor who preformed my Meningioma resection. Everything about that experience was top notch! Sadly, Dr. Waziri left to the East Coast and he referred me to Dr. Lillehei. Nothing has been the same since.... 2013 my grade 1 skull based Meningioma grew back bigger than when it was found and needed surgery in 2010 and now inoperable. So, Dr. Lillehei ordered radiation. After 6 weeks of radiation I ended up with radiation poisoning and was down for 3 years. The reason for my poor review for Dr. Lillehei is simple. He does NOT doctor! Every time I have seen him I feel extremely confused and unsure about his efforts, lack of care, attention to details, proper treatments and possibly not even looking at the correct patient file while in front of him!?! For example, while sitting in the room I’ve been asked about how my headaches have been..... I have never had headaches. Only to be told “well, that’s what it says in your chart!” Meaning I must be wrong. Last visit I was seen by a child student playing doctor with a pompous attitude. Completely treated me as if I was making things up and I was wasting his time. Dr. Lillehei then came to the room and just nodded his head and agreed with the student....& that was that! In the end after 2010 surgery, 2013 regrowth & 6 weeks of radiation, 3 years of radiation poisoning, loss of right hearing, vertigo, typical symptoms and scores of other symptoms. I can honestly say I have ZERO confidence in Dr. lillehei ability to take care of and treat his patients with conviction and proper care.

Thanks to Dr. Lillelei’s commitment and the surgeons and staff at CU Denver Colorado I am alive today. In 2005 they saved my life when our local ER said there was no chance. God bless you and keep you. Sincerely, Shyrlene Graf

The best there is. I had a pituitary tumor. Dr. Lillehei was able to expertly remove it and provide after care. He has a good sense of humor and is very personable. He is also very good at explaining the condition and treatments.

14 years ago I suffered a grand mal seizure and shortly thereafter Dr. Lillehei removed a racquetball-sized grade 2 oligoastrocytoma from my brain. 1.5 years later it reoccurred as a grade 4 glioblastoma multiforme, which Dr. L also removed. For that and various other ailments, I have crossed paths with many doctors during my 5+ decades on this planet. I can say, without hesitation, that Dr. Lillehei is the best doctor that I have ever had. His compassion was such that he put me, my wife, and my elderly Dad completely at ease about my condition and the scary surgery needed to correct it. And his knowledge and skills are off the chart.
