Once again, excellent visit. He has been the only doctor to actually perform a physical exam. He doesn’t rely solely on what he sees in an x-ray. He listens to you, he cares about your quality of life. I have recommended Dr. Rion to family, friends, and persons I have had contact with that have experienced joint problems. Simply the best of the best!

Even though he was later than usual (generally I see him within 15 minutes of my walking in the door) he's still a GREAT doc!

DR. RION SEEMED VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY HIP SITUATION. I BELIEVE THE ADVICE THAT HE GAVE ME ABOUT THE TYPE OF SURGERY THAT HE HAS SUGGESTED WILL ELIMINATE MOST IF NOT ALL OF MY HIP PROBLEMS.

Dr. Rion is simply awesome! I truly look forward to my office visits with him. I am so happy to know that he will be the person replacing my knee and helping me with other joint issues. Having joint issues, don’t wait! Make that appointment!

Staff was very helpful and professional.
Dr. Rion as always was very thorough and explained my condition in detail. He set me up with a spine specialist (Dr. Watson). Thank you OrthoNC👍👍!
Dr. David Rion is a native of the Carolinas. Having grown up in both North and South Carolina, Dr. Rion went on to receive his medical education at the University of Virginia School of Medicine. After he obtained his Doctor of Medicine degree, Dr. Rion completed both his residency training in Orthopedic Surgery as well as a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction at Allegheny General Hospital in Pittsburgh. Dr. Rion also underwent specialized training in Orthopedic Trauma, completing his Trauma fellowship in Columbus at Grant Medical Center, Ohio’s busiest Level I Trauma Center.
Dr. Rion’s passion for total joint arthroplasty stems from the dramatic improvement in the quality of life his father, a Marine, enjoyed after undergoing a successful joint replacement. Witnessing his father’s transition from incapacitating pain to successful return to work as a commercial aviator left an ingrained impression on Dr. Rion that inspired him to pursue a career in Orthopedic Surgery. Fracture care is his other area of specialty interest. He takes great satisfaction in helping patients regain their function after suffering from debilitating joint conditions and traumatic injuries, and he is happy to have returned home to contribute to the wellbeing of his community as a member of Orthopedic Specialists of North Carolina.
