Edward Connolly
M.D.

Great SURGEON listens and cares about his patients

My 2nd visit for cortisone shots in my knees. Dr. Connelly advised me at the first visit that both knees were bone-on-bone, but it was totally up to me whether I wanted to continue with the shots or advance to the knee replacement. The effects were wonderful, but lasted about 1 1/2 weeks. After a lot of thinking about the negative affects of my knees on my life, I told Dr. Connelly that I wanted to do the replacement. Scheduled me for the first opening and since it's longer than 6 weeks away, I got the shots too. Dr. Connelly's expertise, professionalism, personality and friendliness is fantastic!

Dr Connelly is very good with what he does. He always has a way of putting you at ease and let’s you make you own decisions.

The whole facility is professional and caring with their patients. I went in with a broken foot and felt like I was in vip. They immediately offered a wheelchair and made sure I was taken care of. I walked out of ORA very pleased with the care I received and how I saw everyone is treated at ORA. My doctor, Dr. Connolly, is also very attentive and thorough with his inspection of the injuries and making sure that i understood and knew how to take care of the cast that I had to get. All around a 10 star experience because 5 isn’t enough.

My visit with Dr. Connolly went better than I expected. Both doctor and staff were professional and courteous and I would highly recommend for your orthopedic issues.

Dr. Connolly prepared me on what to expect for my knee replacements. He was patient, honest and very encouraging. I had two knee replacements in 6 weeks, and so glad I took his advice and got them both done so close together. He and Evan are a great team and would highly recommend them to anyone without hesitation.

Dr. Connolly is not only one of the best doctors I’ve ever had to deal with, but also an extraordinary person! He’s patient and caring! He listens to your issue and comes up with a plan or plans that will work best for you! Not only is he a top notch doctor, but a great person that will try to help ease or cure your ailments to allow you to continue living a full and productive life!

First time seeing him. All went well.

He is very professional. Listens to your symptoms and takes the time to make decisions based on them. Takes time to make sure your questions are answered.

Very good on wait time and explaining the questions that you have

First Dr I've ever visited the I believe that did not talk down to me and was very attentive to my issue , very impressed

Very thorough and takes time to explain everything thoroughly. Friendly and kind. Genuinely seems to care about my condition.

My appoint was on time care taken was very favorable to my med problem!

Dr. Connolly has replaced both of my hips. He has given me a chance at a much more normal life as I was forced to use a walker before. I would not trust any other team. There were no complications with either surgery. His team is great.

The staff is very friendly. Dr. Connelly is willing to answer questions and not rush through the appointment. All in all I had an excellent visit.

He saved my life not once but twice! If he had not been on call in 2016 I would not had made it. Now in 2022 he does it again. I would not go to anyone else he is compassionate and very knowledgeable and never gives up on his patients. I would go to no one else.

Very thorough, listens and answers all questions and concerns.

I had orthoscopic knee surgery by Dr. Ed Connolly whom I highly recommend. I then had a follow-up with Evan Witt in the office, whom I also highly recommend, and I’ll have another follow-up in about a month. I know I’m always in very capable hands with both and their nurses and staff.

I drove 5 1/2 hours each way to go to ORA and from the moment you walk in into ORA you know you are in a first class medical facility. The people are very polite and are there to help you. Dr. Connolly was right on time and very comforting in his assessment in detailing a short and long term strategy for my situation. I would definitely recommend Dr. Connolly and his team if you are in need of an Orthopedic. Finding a Dr. that truly cares about you is hard to do these days. But you can count on Dr. Connolly and his team to look after your best interest. Jeff - in KC

Dr Connolly listens to all your questions and worries. He replaced one of my knees in august and I wouldn’t go to anyone but him. Very easy to talk with.

Excellent at everything. Would highly recommend’

Did an awesome job with my finger. Haven’t been able to make a fist in 30 years due to trigger finger. Dr Connolly fixed it right up!

Caring and very kind doctor.

Dr. Connolly has treated me for knee problems for several years. The latest visit was for an injection for pain in my right knee.

I can say that I am not worried about what happens when Doc.is doing His thing. I feel very blessed when He is helping me.

Dr. Connolly listens, cares, and is honest. He works hard to solve whatever issues or problems l have. If he doesn’t have an answer, he won’t try to fake you out.

Dr. Connolly is the best and his staff members are wonderful. Always listened to thoughtfully. Questions are answered thoroughly. So reassuring. Complete, wonderful care before, during and after my knee replacements. I have complete confidence in Dr. Connolly and the staff at ORA.

Dr. Connelly is very efficient, actually the whole team was. The shots do help and I am glad I can get them from him. He also takes time with his patient.

Dr Connolly is an excellent surgeon, and I completely trust him with my joint health.

Always great care is given when I go. Doc is clear and honest. Thank you John Shafer

Good doctors Lots of locations

Always treats me with respect and asks if I have any questions , which he answers.

Dr Connolly is the best in the Quad Cities as far as I’m concerned. He explains everything so that you can understand and makes you feel like he and his staff truly care about your well being. I’ve seen him several times pre and post op concerning my complicated hip replacement and arthritic knees and I always feel I’m getting his best. When he tells me he wants me to have my life back, I believe he truly means it. Dr Connolly is a great guy and real professional. I don’t want anyone else. I recommend him to anyone who will listen.

Dr. Connolly toke the time to listen to my unconcise explanation of pain I was having from my low back down thru my leg. I believe he accurately diagnosed my pain and treatment. Dr. Connolly is a top notch orthopedic. I would recommend him to my loved ones and friends.

Questions answered, expectations met, targeted milestones realistic and proved accurate. Pleasant and professional. I’d readily go to him if needed in the future

Dr. Conley is the best! He is attentive, listens to the patient, provides clear and easy to understand explanations and solutions for the problem. He did a hip replacement surgery on me and it was a very successful surgery. ORA is a full service orthopedic center. All staff, nurses, and doctors are nice and work to give you the best service.

Ora is a very excellent place to go very caring doctors and staff! I see Dr. Connolly and his staff and I wouldn’t see anybody else.

Dr Connolly is my go to ORA doctor. I trust him completely

Found Dr Connolly to be very knowledgeable and a caring doctor. He practices very good medicine and has concern for his patients care before during and after surgery.

Dr Connolly is the vest Ortho that I have ever been to. His expertise and results are second to none. He takes the time needed with you and listens to and addresses your concerns.

I recently visited Dr. Edward Connolly's office at ORA in Silvis. I have been very impressed with all aspects of my visit, from scheduling to reception check-in to waiting time to the consultation with the doctor. He's a very good listener, very personable, and quite professional. I have complete confidence in him and my course of treatment (arthritic knee). I would highly recommend him and ORA.

Dr. Connolly has replaced both my knees. I was reluctant to have the surgery and had injections several times before the surgeries. Each time I met with Dr. Connolly, I felt he did a good job explaining my options. Both knee replacements went well and I'm glad I had the procedures done. I also have problems with my hip and will have a hip replacement performed with Dr. Connolly. His PA, Evan Witt is also top notch. Agree with many of the previous reviews - overall outstanding.

Knee examination and injection

Dr Connolly & Evan are the best!

From signing in to seeing the doctor, everyone was very friendly and informative. My appointment was on time and very little wait time between X-rays and seeing the doctor. Dr. Connolly was very informative and didn’t rush through appointment when explaining different options and treatments. Highly recommended.

Look forward to my visits, after treatment my body feels better

I had a left hip replacement April 2021 by Dr Connolly. I was golfing 8 weeks later and resuming all my activities pain free. He is very professional, empathetic and takes the time to listen to his patients. Highly recommended in my opinion.

Dr Connolly is the best. I wouldn't have anyone else do a joint replacement for me. He is an excellent surgeon and person.

Doctor Connolly is top notch. You can’t find anyone better. If you are looking for the best orthopedic surgeon you won’t be disappointed. I wish I had chosen him for my first knee replacement. He did excellent on my second knee.

I respect Dr. Ed Connolly who helped me with my right knee problem. He did scope surgery a month ago. We had a follow-up appointment today. He remembered not only myself but was welcoming to my spouse Russ.

Dr. Connolly has a reassuring manner. He is a skillful physician/surgeon. He is kind. He takes the time to explain his diagnosis and his recommendations. He is patient with questions. I know he is busy, but never makes the appt feel rushed. I am grateful for his expertise.

Everyone is very nice. Appts . on schedule and Dr Connolly is very personable

He's friendly & will take time to answer questions.

I have been going to Dr Connolly for 8 years now. He is outstanding!! Always caring and always asks if I have any questions. Just the best!

Visit was quote pleasant. He has already replaced my left hip with no complications. Am back to donthe right side. I have full confidence in him.

Great doctor, great experience! Highly recommend Dr. Connolly.

Dr. Connolly has a great bedside manner. He is a patient individual who listens well and offers concise and understandable information. I recommend him without reservation.

As always the Dr and staff are very professional and helpful. Acceptable wait time. Especially nice that they have all the testing in 1 facility.

Got in on time... staff very friendly and extremely helpful...Dr. Connley one of a kind.... outstanding Doctor.

The staff at ORA are very professional. I was treated like I mattered before, during, and after my hip replacement surgery. Dr Connolly is the absolute best hip surgeon and I highly recommend him. My surgery resulted in complications and he knew exactly how to help me and acted immediately. He took me seriously, and showed me he cared about me then and in my future. I’ve had conversations with many people in the medical field as well as socially and they all told me Dr Connolly is the best and if they needed hip or knee surgery, he’s the guy. I trust him wholeheartedly and followed his instructions to the letter. He did his best for me which motivated me to do my best for him in my post op PT. Before going into surgery both times, his words to me were, “I’m going to take good care of you, Marge”. I’ll never forget how much that meant to me and how much I needed to hear that. I’m forever grateful to Dr Connolly.

Treats me with my concerns and answers any questions.

Dr. Connelly was friendly, listened to my concerns, and spent adequate time discussing my injury and treatment. I was pleased with his care and am confident he has my best interest at heart.

Highly recommend Dr Connolly. He spends the time with you to understand your concerns and treat accordingly. He does not go straight to surgery. Injections and physical therapy are helping so far.

I never have to wait long to check in or to see the Doctor. Everyone is helpful and professional from the time I walk in until I walk out. Dr Connolly and staff are quick and precise when treating my issues. I would recommend Dr. Connolly and ORA to everyone.

Dr. Connelly was very patient and thorough. He listened to my explanation and symptoms. He asked good questions, offered his medical opinion and options. He was good to work with and was sure to tell me to contact him with any questions and concerns. Thank you.

I had a evaluation for a hip replacement. He is knowledgeable,experienced and speaks to you in layman terms offering options that may be tried. Top shelf person and surgeon.

Dr Connolly and his staff are the best. My worries about my upcoming hip replacement have been set aside. You won’t find anyone better or more experienced than Dr Connolly.

Pre op exam before hip replacement. I feel very fortunate to have Dr Connolly as my surgery. He made me feel very comfortable. I wanted a surgeon with confidence and a great deal of experience to perform my surgery. I found that Dr.

Dr Connolly has been my go to orthopedic doc for more than 20 years. He listens and guides me to resolve my many joint issues. I highly recommend Dr Connolly!

I have always had a great experience at ORA. Staff is attentive, appointments timely, and everyone pleasant. What can I say about Dr Connolly but what a class act. A great Doctor, pleasant, and explains any procedures or choices of procedures you choose to have to his patients. He is always willing to listen and answer any questions you might have. I feel lucky to have him as my Doctor. Stephanie Crompton

Excellent doctor. The staff is friendly and I have never had to wait!

It's been a long 6+ months and with ORA'S help I am recovering from a serious fall. Thanks to Dr. Edward Connolly's excellent surgical skills and his assistant Evan Witt's positive reinforcement I have regained full motion in my ankle. I plan to resume my full active lifestyle by summer.

Have been seeing Dr. Connolly for a few years. Always personable and listens to me. He has a kind heart. Not pushy. He gets 10 ⭐️. Staff always friendly and accommodating. Thank you for taking good care of my knee.

Dr Connolly was very pleasant when he came into the room. He answered all my questions and listened to me when I asked him about a brace for my knee. I would recommend Dr Connolly to all my family and friends.

I know that when seeing Dr. Connolly, I am receiving expert medical assistance. He is kind, knowledgable and efficient. I have highly recommended Dr. Connolly to any of my family or friends in need of orthopedic services.

Explains et answers all questions.Never rushes you.Skilled surgeon, this is my experience. Would recommend.!

Both Dr's Connolly and Berry have worked with me. Very professional and knowledgeable. I would highly recommended either for their respective specialties.

From the first appointment I had with Dr Connolly I trusted him and was very comfortable with the time he took to explain my hip pain. My hip replacement surgery went great and I want to compliment the nurses and his team for making me feel safe and ready to be out of pain and get moving better again. I called his team during the first two weeks after surgery ( Thanks Chelsea) with questions that were answered well. Thank you Dr Connolly!

Takes time listens to me very professional

Dr Connolly listens and gives excellent medical advice

Dr. Connelly is consistently professional, knowledgeable, and kind. He encourages informed decision making. Office staff is cordial and makes every effort to assist in every way.

I have had several visits at ORA over the past few years. They are very efficient in all aspects of getting checked in, history, xrays, etc. I see Dr. Connolly for my knees. He is very professional and tells me what he sees/feels and gives me options. It is up to me to decide what I want to do. I appreciate being given choices. I would highly recommend Dr. Connolly for knee issues.

They have so good to me and the care I received Dr Connolly is such a great physician

I highly recommend Dr. Connolly! He replaced both my hips within the past year. He is not only a skilled surgeon, but also kind, compassionate and a good listener.

Dr Connolly is a wonderful surgeon and always explains why he recommends a certain treatment or test to find out exactly what is wrong with the patient. He’s done surgery on my left knee twice last April and July to cure a bone infection in my left knee. I would highly recommend him to anyone that needs joint surgery.

Felt safe and in good hands. Dr Connolly is very attentive to you’re questions! Very nice and caring Doctor. You will not be disappointed!

All ways listens to what I have to say, very courteous, would highly recommend him!

Excellent experience provide good care and staff.

He is the best you will find. He really knows his stuff and is very easy to communicate with. I always feel at ease knowing he is the best out there.

Dr. Connolly. I have known him for 18 years. He has performed 4 surgeries. All with the very best results. Seen Ed for numerous other reasons. He has always been spot on. Ed is a very personable person with very good manners. Ed allows the patient to explain what is the reason for the office visit. He explains the diagnosis in term one can understand. I recommend Dr. Connolly very highly.

I was treated very well. Doctor listens and answers questions. I would recommend him. He was recommended to me.
