Best surgeon ever! Did not even consider allowing another surgeon to do my right hip ...he also did my left hip. Best results I could ask for. Dr. Ryan has the best professional attitude for his patients making them totally at east. I recommend him to my friends.

Excellent really engages you in conversation and lets you know what is going on.

Dr. Ryan is very sharp and up-to-date on the latest knee treatments. He has guided me into a pain management therapy rather than surgery at this time. It shows that he is most concerned about me as a patient than anything else. Listens to me.
