In October I had a lot of pain in my right hip and I couldn't take the pain anymore. Then I was recommended to Dr. Ellis, he is such a wonderful and caring person. He got right down to it, found out what was wrong, and I had my surgery on the 22nd. Dr. Ellis and his staff are amazing, I could not have asked for a better medical team. This is the first time since October that I was able to put all my weight on my leg. I would recommend him to anyone. Thank you Orthopedic ONE for everything you did for me, and the staff at Ohio Orthopedic Surgery Institute, you guys are the best. Everyone there are so sweet and nice.

After many years of right hip pain, I noticed a decline in my mobility when I began falling while performing everyday activities like mowing the grass or going on a walk. My doctor recommended physical therapy, which did not help. I then sought the advice of an orthopedic specialist who gave me a cortisone injection. Unfortunately, this did not provide any relief either. Eventually, I ended up having an MRI to examine my hip and was told that a full tear in my gluteus minimus had been the source of my pain for all these years! The orthopedic specialist advised that the tear could not be fixed and that I would need to rely on a cane for the rest of my life. At 62 years old, this was not an acceptable answer to me, so I scheduled an appointment with Dr. Thomas Ellis at Orthopedic ONE for a second opinion. After a successful surgical repair on Feb 13, 2017, my recovery is right on schedule according to Dr Ellis, Tiffany his Physician Assistant and Dave Kohlrieser my Physical Therapist. After years of restless nights, I can now sleep soundly without pain. In addition to my physical therapy sessions, walking in the pool at the Grove City YMCA has been a great way to build strength in my leg. I hope to give up my cane within the next few weeks and ride my bicycle by the end of the summer!
Thanks to Dr Ellis and the staff at Orthopedic ONE for giving me my active life back!!
