Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Replaced my left knee and it works great. Another Dr replaced my right knee 4 years previous, and I got sepsis and other complications. I was very fortunate to have Dr. Osuji for my left knee, and highly recommend him to everyone.

Absolute professional
The doctor took the time to explain what was happening, was absolutely on time, was entirely professional with an outstanding bedside manner. Probably the best surgeon I’ve ever worked with.

Great experience from start to finish!
One of the primary elements I look for in a doctor is his or her ability to clearly explain to me what needs to be done, and what I have to do in order to attain success. Dr. Osuji is a consummate professional, but he is also extremely personable, and he never once made me feel like he needed to rush out to deal with other patients. At the age of 66, I had a completely successful full hip replacement on November 11, 2024, and over the following weeks, Dr. Osuji was available to me every step of the way through my recovery. I am working hard in physical therapy to be able to return to the tennis and pickleball courts, and I am optimistic that I will be there in a very short time. I highly recommend Dr. Osuji to anyone in the Peoria area for any orthopedic needs. Tom Destefano

Was a great experience from the beginning to end. But I have never been disappointed with this practice. Dr. OG and his PA are wonderful. The admitting staff, getting me signed in, the x-ray people, they all did a wonderful job. No complaints. Don’t forget, this is one of the busiest practices in our city. And it’s busy for a reason. They have the best doctors and staff.

Highly recommend
Dr Osuji performed a total hip replacement on my right side. We had to cancel my first operation due to a medical issue I had but we got it under control and the second time was a total success. He is kind and caring and listens to your concerns. I still need left hip replacement also and he not allowed to retire until I get that one done. Thank you Dr Osuji for giving me my mobility back

Dr. Osuji is the best!
Dr. Osuji is so easy to talk with and put me at ease at my first appointment. I had my right hip replacement in 2023 and I am scheduled for my left hip replacement in a few weeks. I would highly recommend Dr. Osuji. I could not believe how quick my recovery was and I was back to all my normal activities minus the hip pain in no time at all. Dr. Osuji was recommended to me by a family practice physician in an outlying community. Best recommendation I have ever been given!

Rock Star surgeon
I had my left hip replaced on 11/01/23. Dr. Osuji was kind, thoughtful, thorough and very knowledgeable in his area of expertise. He has a ton of experience, his procedure allows a patient to heal much faster because it is anterior. I think Dr. Osuji is THE best surgeon in the area. He is a rock star among all the local chiropractors and most primary care physicians.If I need my right hip done, he will be my only choice.

Friendly and professional!!!
I immediately felt comfortable discussing my hip pain with Dr Osuji, when he walked in the room with a huge warm handshake and smile. He was so patient answering my questions and listening to my concerns. He explained what we were looking at regarding my x-rays, and wasn't quick to suggest surgery, (a great relief to me!) but offered options for relief without jumping to more expensive, unnecessary treatments. So far, I am very happy with him, his staff and especially the care they gave me!!!

The shock of being told that you need a double hip replacement is scary, but Dr Osuji and his team were professional, informative, and kind through the entire process. Dr Osuji specializes in the Anterior Hip Replacement which speeds up recovery and less restrictions! I highly recommend Dr Osuji!

After a fall which caused a bad break of my arm, I was able to get into the office on the weekend and have repair surgery within three days. Dr. Osuji did a wonderful job. The physical therapy and regular follow-ups show much improvement.

Life changing
I so needed a new hip. I was using a cane and in so much pain. The hip replacement has me back up and living normally again. It’s three months after surgery and sometimes I forget that I even had the surgery. I’m doing very well and the doctor and the surgery staff were wonderful. The information meeting proportional to surgery was helpful. Osuji is really a great doctor and easy to talk to. I picked a good one and his approach to hip replacements is supposed to give the best results. He was very attentive to my needs after surgery - making sure I took the time to recover, getting some physical therapy and healing. I know I was in good hands

Dr. Osuji replaced my left hip approximately five years ago. In October of 2021 replaced my right knee. Both are doing great. I wouldn't go to anyone else. Fantastic surgeon ! The best in my opinion. I had ten questions to ask the Doc. & he answered eight of them before I had a chance to ask any questions. Dr. Osuji has a great personality which compliments his abilities. His nurses , Katie & Danni are awesome as well. They went out of their way to help me. Top professionals & great personal care !
