A Patient Story
My journey with Orthopedic ONE began in 2018 after having difficulty with my left knee for years. I took prescription NSAIDS and received knee injections to no avail, and knew it was time to consider knee surgery. Dr. Vivek Sahai replaced my husband’s knee, so I opted to stick with him for my surgery as well. Dr. Sahai was both professional and caring and did a great job on my knee. As life would have it, while still healing from knee surgery, I slipped and fell on black ice, resulting in a right ankle spiral fracture. Back to Orthopedic ONE I went, this time to see ankle specialist Dr. Brian Tscholl. Dr. Tscholl was also professional and caring, especially since I had just undergone knee surgery and was on surgery overload. The ankle surgery was a great success and I have had no further problems. Just when I thought my relationship with Orthopedic ONE would be simply fond memories of surgery successes, my back began to hurt more than usual (I fell on ice in 2015 resulting in sciatic pain). Eventually, I ended up scheduling a visit with a spine specialist, Dr. David Hannallah. Dr. Hannallah was also very professional and had the insight to order a hip MRI, which showed I was very much in need of a right hip replacement. Thank you for discovering this, Dr. Hannallah!
Based on the success of my previous surgeries, I stuck with Orthopedic ONE for my hip replacement. Dr. Rahul Biyani performed my right anterior hip replacement, the surgery went well and the pain and discomfort I was experiencing were gone immediately.
After the hip replacement, I began physical therapy with Jenna Trucco which went extremely well. I am also scheduled to see Dr. William Fitz for some conservative back pain treatments.
Orthopedic ONE has been my solace in time of need. I have received nothing but exemplary care with positive outcomes. I would refer them without reservation and would not consider any other place for my orthopedic needs. I have total confidence in their expertise and am an “Orthopedic ONE cheerleader”. Thank you for changing my life for the better!
