Chad B. Willis's research focuses on orthopedic surgery, with a particular emphasis on reconstructive procedures and trauma management. His publications explore various surgical techniques, including tibiotalocalcaneal arthrodesis with fibular strut grafts, Achilles tendon rupture repair using a mini-open approach, and the transposition of saphenous nerve neuromas using collagen conduits. Willis also investigates injury patterns in pediatric populations, specifically related to all-terrain vehicle incidents, and examines patient-reported outcomes for conditions like rheumatoid arthritis affecting the foot and ankle.
