After my professional track career as a steeplechaser, I decided to move to the marathon and train for the Olympic Trials. However, while training I started to experience groin tightness when I would run. After a very discouraging year of trying every kind of physical therapy and treatment under the sun, I finally got an MRI and learned that a labral tear in my hip was the cause of my groin pain. My physical therapist recommended I see Dr. Ellis, as he is one of the best hip surgeons in the country. I quickly made my appointment and visited him and Dave Kohlrieser. They assured me that I would get back to my passion and run pain-free again.
My experience with their team was incredible, and after a successful surgery, I have already raced two half marathons one year post-surgery. I am incredibly grateful to Orthopedic One for delivering exceptional care for me before, during, and after the surgery. Thank you for allowing me to get back to doing what I love!

My daughter, who was 14 at the time, was having hip pain during volleyball season in the fall of 2019. After volleyball, she was in extreme pain and it was making her life difficult.
We took her to a doctor who said she had snapping hip syndrome and needed physical therapy. After a few weeks, her therapist was not satisfied with her progression and recommended that she have an MRI. Once the MRI was complete, the doctor couldn't find any aliments aside from snapping hip and said if she was having more pain she could try injections. I was not thrilled with the idea of my 14-year old daughter getting injections.
Our therapist recommended making an appointment with Dr. Thomas Ellis to get a second opinion. Dr. Ellis looked at the same MRI images as the first doctor and could see that she had slight hip dysplasia which caused her to have snapping hip, CAMs, and a torn labrum. Dr. Ellis and his team performed surgery on her right hip at Dublin Methodist Hospital in January 2020, and she was able to play volleyball in the fall of 2020. Dr. Ellis performed the same procedure on her left hip in October 2020. She is about a month or so away from recovery and heading on to do great things without pain!
Thank God for second opinions, Dr. Ellis, and his amazing team!
