I would like to take this opportunity to tell you more about myself and my experience in healthcare. I am originally from Rockford, Illinois and I earned my B.S. degree in bioengineering with a chemistry minor at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1998. I continued my studies at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Rockford, graduating with honors in 2002.
Following my graduation, I completed an internship and pursued advanced orthopedic training as part of my surgical residency at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, N.C. In addition, I completed another year at a subspecialty training program, or fellowship, in pediatric orthopedic surgery at Children’s Memorial Hospital in Chicago.
My practice is focused on providing specialized health care to children and teens who have orthopedic conditions resulting from traumatic injuries, congenital deformities, and neuromuscular conditions, as well as general orthopedic care for adults. I have a special interest in sports injuries, pediatric fracture care, congenital deformities, clubfeet, pediatric hip and foot conditions.
Please let me know if there is anything I can do to further improve your experience at Ortho Illinois. My goal is to provide you the best medical care available in a comfortable, nurturing environment.
I am looking forward to meeting you.

He explain my sons break in his hand more then the doctor at the ER and the options to recovery
They gave me a very detailed explanation of mi knee issue and address my questions and options to resolve it.
Very nice and professional. Also very quick to get us in and out which was appreciated with my one year old!
So kind and extremely informative. We were very pleased with our experience
From scheduling to check-in and throughout appointment, the office of Dr. Scott Ferry had us feeling cared for and well informed. They took the time to listen to my son about his injury and explained to him the surgery and recovery process. Friendly and attentive environment. Thank you.
Down to earth, yet informative
Great doctor. Take time to listen & respond to needs/messages same day. 2 surgeries & did great with my son.
Dr. Ferry goes above and beyond caring for our pediatric patient. During the exam he articulates teachable moments and talks to the parents and injuried.
