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.

Dr. McClellan is an excellent doctor and surgeon. I went to him for a second opinion since I was told after having steroid shots with no positive results, there was nothing that could be done with my back and nerve pain.
Dr. McClellan started from the beginning. He reviewed all my past tests then took his own. Just the fact that he listened patiently and was willing to look at my medical needs with a different approach was such a comfort to me. I was like Wow! He is listening to ME about MY body.
Moving forward after a year with covid and testing, X-rays,Mri’sand other testing, surgery was performed 1 month ago. I feel like I have my life back. The excruciating pain in my leg is gone after clamping a nerve. The fusion in my back is healing ?????.
Thank you Dr. McClellan for listening and making a plan with me that worked !! Thank you for giving me my life back. ?????

Went for a consultation and was seen promptly. Although I did not get the immediate answers I had hoped for, it was explained clearly the steps that must occur to move forward. So I look ahead to the time when I will achieve the remedy I seek. Thank you to all at Ortho Cincy. I would recommend Dr. McClellan and staff.

Dr. McClellan performed back surgery on me to alleviate the pain I was having with a herniated disc pinching my sciatic nerve. It's been seven weeks since and I am feeling so much better. I couldn't even lay on my belly before. I feel like I have my life back!
