When I met Dr. Ellis to discuss my PAO surgery, I cried because I thought I was going to be done being an athlete and playing softball. At that very appointment, Dr. Ellis told me he'd get me back to playing softball and I'd be stronger than ever… and I am! I'm pain free, doing all the sports I love, and just signed my letter of intent to play college softball at Ohio Dominican University this fall. I can't thank Dr. Ellis and Dave Kohlreiser enough for their wonderful care, and for getting me back to the ball field.
I was really active in college, but began experiencing hip and back pain. Doctors said I had hip dysplasia – but offered no next step. I thought this was just how my life was going to be. After searching for solutions online, I found experts at Orthopedic ONE who could fix my problem. I got off crutches and never looked back. Orthopedic ONE absolutely changed my life.
