  1. I came into OCI Monday, July 1, at 11 am as a walk-in with a broken leg. (Doctor in St Thomas had Xrayed my leg the previous Thursday, showed me it was broken & immobilized it.) …

  2. Dr Sharman was very thorough. He went over my mri with me abd explained everything. He gave me an examination and then discussed options. He was very helpful with my decision. He is a very kind man.

  3. Staff is very efficient and friendly. Dr. Bender has a gentle bedside manner, but is thorough with health history and attributing factors. Dr. Bender answers all questions no matter how small with thoughtfulness and expertise.
    I would recommend the Orthopedic Center of Illinois for your pain management needs.

  4. Even though they don’t accept the insurance (Meridian recommend Medicaid patients to stay as far away from this provider as possible! NO ONE takes them…) I am stuck with till sometime near the end of the year, DR …

  5. Dr. Bender is very pleasant and cares about his patients. If you are in pain come and see him. I was in terrible pain with my neck and couldn’t turn my head. I can now turn it and with no pain. Great Job Dr. Bender.

  6. Dr. Ludwig is an excellent, caring physician. He listened to what I told him regarding my health and did appropriate tests and exam. Dr. Ludwig diagnosed and explained options. I received excellent care from Dr. Ludwig and highly recommend him.

  7. Dr. Herrin repaired my husbands hip and he was absolutely the best he knew I was scared and came to speak with me after his emergency surgery. And know 4 years later he is doing well .

  8. OCI houses great orthopedic doctors for any need. They’re always friendly and organized and tend to the patient first. I’ve used two of the partners there and would highly recommend them.

  9. Dr Herrin reviewed and explained my daughter’s condition very through. He made a treatment plan for her and follow up care. He and his staff were friendly and easy to work with

  10. Dr. Barry Mulshine, and his staff, provided exemplary care for my needs. I came in, broken in spirit, with my knees hurting tremendously, and Dr. Barry Mulshine examined my condition, giving me relief with a cortisone shot to each knee. …

  11. I had an X-ray in 2018 as had hip pain that did not remit with PT. When l asked my PCP to pull it up for me in 2020 as l felt l must’ve had a slight break & was told l had no cartilage on my left hip and leg joint. Dr. Allan listened to my questions and unfollow up. I am not running again but have my life back. Thank you!!

  12. Went through multiple doctors, a couple different hospitals, and several different answers about a pain from a car accident that i was being told was a “phantom cramp” or anything else that made it sound more like a mental problem. I showed …

  13. I had 2 knee replacements and it’s like I’ve had a miracle. It’s the best decision I’ve ever made. The 2 surgeries went well and my recovery was as expected. The end result is I can walk without any pain.

  14. First visit great but the doctor ran 35 minutes late. Second visit doctor was an hour behind and spent all of 5 minutes with me. It wasted a $40 copay. She could have told me over rhe phone I needed an MRI.

  15. My experience with them was great. I had a meniscus tear in my knee that was looked over by Springfield clinic twice. Dr. Ludwig seen me immediately and said he didn’t know how it was over looked by them. So a month later I had surgery to repair the tear and his whole staff for surgery and rehab was excellent

  16. Dr. graves Was very helpful, explained everything thoroughly, was able to help without invasive surgery as a first option we started with physical therapy and something for pain to avoid any hardship caused by invasive surgery’s that …

  18. Dr. Sharma is a very good dr. But seeing him 1 1/2 hours after my scheduled appt. Is ridiculous. If I showed up 1 1/2 hours late they would not see me. It’s very disrespectful. My time is also valuable. What is the point of an appt?

  19. Very professional and caring staff, did a fantastic job on my thumb, they went above and beyond with the paperwork in dealing with the V.A. would highly recommend them.

  20. Dr. Senica is a very busy practicing doctor but she never makes you feel as if you are unimportant. She always takes the necessary amount of time to assess your symptoms and treat accordingly. She is great and I would recommend her to every one who has an orthopedic problem!

  21. The rehab place was Not extremely efficient. I seen many different employees throughout my experience and many of them didn’t know what was going on with my case. Did not even get a end of care appointment to see how I progressed. At St …

  22. This was my 1st visit with Dr. Graves and I found him to be genuinely concerned and proactive with the issue at hand. After the whole process, all of it ends with one simple fact… THE WHITE COAT BROTHERHOOD and the protection of fellow doctors. REMEMBER THIS FACT!

  23. Dr. Sharma is a great surgeon and is incredibly informative. He takes time to hear you’re concerns and will answer any questions you have so you become comfortable. I highly recommend you see him.

  26. Staff was very friendly polite and professional. Dr. Sharma was great to deal with and explained exactly how everything would go. Even called in person to check up the following day. Would highly recommend him and the entire staff.

  27. If you need an orthopedic surgeon who listens and solves long term issues, then Dr Graves is the physician to see. He is a caring doctor whose first inclination is not surgery, but delving deep to make sure he really can help. Only when he …

  28. This is the best facility I have been to ever. The staff was wonderful and very caring. They took so good care of before and after surgery. I had such a better experience with them , better than the care I got at the hospital. I would recommend this facility 100 times before the hospital. Great job to all the staff

  29. Dr Ludwig and his staff are anxious to help in any way they can. His interaction with patients is wonderful. His answers questions in a straightforward way that gets right to the point. He’s the Marcus Wellbey if OCI.

  30. Appointment with Dr Sharma. Whole process very thorough from the taking of my vitals, meeting with the nurse practitioner to the meeting with Dr Sharma. Asked appropriate questions and reviewed x-rays of hip. Look forward to PT at Fit Club. See Dr again in 4 months.

  35. I’ve seen Dr. Williams several times and think he is a capable and good doctor. I do like how they have on site MRI and X rays. I gave them a 3 instead of 4 because trying to get a hold of the staff is tough and they charged me $10 to …

  36. The front desk personnel is very friendly. Dr. Sharma’s nurse was wonderful and then there is the magnificent Dr. Sharma. He was very attentive. As he dictated, he explained my procedure in great detail. He took my injury serious and put me at ease. Thank you Dr. Sharma, and the entire staff at OCI.

  37. Dr. Allen is an excellent surgeon. He does tend to talk over patients when they try to explain their pain, or concerns, but he is careful to examine the patient with all the professional methods available. He also has an excellent staff.

  38. We started to see Dr. Herron for my sons ankle. He played flag football last summer and turned his ankle wrong and fractured it at the growth plate. They have always been really nice to us when we have been there, even the billing …

  42. I had a nagging back injury and initially went to the OCI walk-in clinic. I did a follow up with Dr. Bender the following week. He was very friendly and very thorough. He took the time to discuss my back issue and how to avoid it in the future. I would HIGHLY recommend OCI and Dr. Bender.

  45. Absolutely love Dr. Senica. She makes me feel comfortable and I’m the worst when it comes to going to doctors. My injury is causing me a lot of frustration with not healing like i want it to but she has been great. Not looking forward to next appointment as i hate needles but hoping to get through it with minimal irritation.

  46. Dr. Maender, and his staff did an exceptional job of repairing my shoulder! Had full rotar cuff surgery and bicep repair from a fall!! When the other doctor passed on me he and his staff stepped up and did the job! I absolutely recommend …

  48. I was referred to Dr Ludwig for a knee injury. From check in to check out, this office is top notch professional. Dr Ludwig explained my injury, advised me of the arthroscopy procedure he would be doing, informed me of post op expectations. …

  49. Have only had one visit, so far all is good. Doctor zeroed right on to my issue and seemed knowledgeable of my problem. He prescribed an initial course of action in which I am in agreement. Ask me again in a couple month how it’s going.

  50. Dr Graves was kind and considerate. I wasn’t expecting to be treated with such dignity and respect at a workers compensation appointment. He seemed concerned with how I was feeling overall and not using tunnel vision with my work injury. I recommend him.

  51. I started going to OCI as regular doctors were no longer able to help me with my lower back. I’ve been seeing Dr Bender for some time and I also see Dr Church for my left knee. Both have been kind, explained details & alternative options, as well as been patient and thorough.

  52. I have been seeing Dr. Graves for a few months due to a painful back problem. Although the problem has yet to be identified, he hasn’t given up on me. I find him to be very personable while remaining professional and concerned. He’s very …

  53. They stopped accepting VA as insurance. Choosing business over people’s needs. Had been treated there for over five years, now have to find another orthopedic clinic. Not a good way to treat veterans

  54. Dr. Maender was excellent at getting my badly broken wrist repaired. He was very encouraging and calmly addressed my concerns before and after surgery. After surgery, my wrist has healed well and in perfect alignment. From experience, I would recommend him for any wrist surgeries.

  55. The nursing staff was very helpful and kind. Made sure that I understood what was happening and what to expect. Dr. Bender spoke to me not at me, was very thorough in my checkup, and explained things to me about the x-ray and catscan to be taken. I was very satisfied with the way I was treated at the Orthopedic Center of Illinois.

  56. After decades of pain and the addition of loss of power in my left leg, Dr. Christopher Graves performed a 4 level procedure on my lower spine. The results just 4 weeks later have been nothing short of life changing. I am immensely …

  57. Maybe they should have taken my blood pressure as I was leaving. I must have been nervous going in because it seemed very high to me. But every one was very personable and very professional. I was most favorably impressed by Dr. Vanfleet …

  58. It takes forever to get in and be seen. Doc was decent but not very helpful. They dont care how much pain ur in. I was even told they were going to call in naproxen for me but they never did. I can’t even stand up with out crying. I hurt so …

  59. I love the way your treated from the staff to the physicians. Your not a medical chart your a person with real issues, mine being my back. Scared of the outcome and being crippled they immediately put my mind at ease with treatment options …

  60. My husband is slowly healing. Dr Graves surgery I feel has gone well. Compared to before surgery. Was hoping his healing Was Going faster.But at his age and health issues it will take time. Long drive but necessary .Dr Graves and his staff have shown kindness and patience with him.

  61. My experience with Dr. VanFleet has been exceptional, he exuded such an air of confidence that I ( the patient ) couldn’t help but feel good about the outcome.
    At each interaction I came away with that same confidence, in my opinion, conveying that feeling of confidence is the best quality a physician can give a patient.

  73. Doctors and nurses top notch but support staff are way under par. They don’t return phone calls. They don’t file insurance properly. Ha. The director refused to speak to me. Not convinced the doctors are better than other facilities to put up with the unprofessional support staff

  74. I was so very appreciated of Dr. Graves and his staff for performing my surgery. Dr. Graves did a excellent job and I would recommend him to anyone for surgery. I was so very happy after surgery and healing very well and can’t even hardly see my scar. Thank you Dr. Graves

  85. Dr. Mulshine did surgery on my left foot 12 years ago. It is still good! He ordered new orthotics for me this time. I prefer an orthopedic doc over a podiatrist. Your feet are part of your body not separate. Dr. Mulshine knows this. He is an excellent Dr.

Instead the receptionist went back to see if Dr. VanFleet, my surgeon could see me. He saw me immediately and assure me that things were healing fine with a little inflammation.

  108. Got me in within an hour of walk in clinic.everyone was polite and courteous. Nurse practitioner and doctor actually showed the xrays and explained in terms could understand. Hands on experience aren’t afraid to touch or talk to patient instead of sitting on a computer asking questions and they listen to you.

  109. I couldn’t be happier with the patience and professionalism at all levels of service at the Orthopedic Center of Illinois. After a series of setbacks with clearing several of the pre-operation procedures my initial surgery date for hip …
