Once again I went skipping down the hall after our visit. I was able to take a short walk and shopping today without pain. You are the best!!

I highly recommend Dr. Ryan Caufield at Orthopedics Associates. He genuinely cares about each of his patients. He performed a hip replacement on me 6 years ago and I had a very non eventful, speedy recovery. He also did a total knee replacement 2 years ago and again, I had a very speedy recovery. Several of my friends have also gone to Dr. Canfield and their surgeries also were uneventful with fast recoveries. The other doctors in this practice are amazing also.

As I nwas no longer in any pain, my main reason for seeing Dr. Caufield was to hear my MRI results, just to know what the injury to my knee was. I appreciated his patience with explaining everything to me and his encouragement to call any time I had a concern, It was very comforting to be in his care!

Dr. Caufield did my right knee replacement back in 2018. Successful surgery and rehab.Now my left knee is in need of replacing and I would not go to any other knee surgeon. Took the X-rays,he showed me the deterioration in my left knee,and I set a surgery date. I have total confidence in Dr. Caufield.

Johanna K.
After no success with rehab, was referred to Dr Canfield who immediately made a partial assessment, gave me a bursitis shot which slightly reduced my pain and ordered an additional MRI for follow up. Even though we haven’t solved the mystery yet, I am confident I am in the best possible hands. Thanks, doc!
Crown R.

Dr. Caufield is an excellent surgeon, very informative, caring and available.
Dr. Fitzgerald is gentle and knowledgeable. He included me in providing the anesthesia, So it became a shared experience.

Very helpful and easy to get an appointment when UC Health was just a runaround aggravation. Dr. Caufield got to the point, addressed my concerns and was a pleasure to meet.

Dr Caufield is the best and so attentive. It always feels like we pick up right where we left off and the attention to detail is remarkable.
Appointments are easy to make same day if needed, and only take as long as necessary.

I can’t recommend enough.
