Dr Connolly is absolutely wonderful , he honest and friendly , had one knee surgery gonna have another one done with him, him and Evan make a great team I always brag about him

Dr Connolly replaced my left hip in 2016 and most recently double knee replacement. 100% honest about all my concerns and how hard doing two knees at once is. It truly is not for everyone. Answered all my questions, very professional, honest about recovery and my expectations following surgery!!!

Dr. Connley is the best M.D. II have met in a long time. He listens. is caring. and the best surgeon I ever had. My knee functions as needed. I have faint scaring. His team is exceptional.

This was my third joint replacement done by Dr. Connolly and his staff. The surgery and post surgery treatment was the best possible care I could of received. All questions and concerns were handled quickly and professionally. Both Dr. Connolly and his assistant Evan showed the utmost concern and care. A special thank you to Chelsea for all she did on my behalf.

Dr. Connolly did scope on Knee. Feels great. Great guy , Great doctor.The Best

Dr. Connolly is the best! Very personable and knowledgeable.

Dr. Connolly has replaced both my husband's knees and one of mine. Wouldn't go to anyone else. He's an outstanding surgeon, so informative, compassionate and caring. I have one knee left to replace and he'll be doing it. We are now able to travel, walk and live life again. Only wish we hadn't waited so long to seek help.

The staff are friendly, direct, and are professional about treating a patient at a very high standard.

Personable, takes time to listen, really comfortable with his demeanor. I liked that you were comfortable which his recommendation.

Had excellent results highly recommend Dr.Connolly.

Great service and knowledge of repairs to injury! Great staff, great experience!

Dr. Connolly took the time to answer any questions that you might have. Had excellent results and would highly recommend him.

Takes care of his patients

Dr Connolly is a good doctor and surgeon. He explains things somewhat. I feel that he really didn’t explain why my left knee hurts and is so tender still over 1 1/2 yrs. He just said the X-rays looked fine and I would just have to live with my knee the way it is. I have resigned myself to that fact. It’s as good as it’s going to get according to Dr Connolly. He did say to come back if I needed to.

Dr Connolly is the best, professional, he listens, very personal and experienced! He has replaced my R hip, L knee and ready to do my L hip next. He has also done my wife’s wrists and ankle. Every surgery with no problems!!!

My husband and I met with Dr. Connolly to discuss a new replacement for me. He discussed the procedure in a clear and precise way. He made me feel comfortable. He answered all of our questions.

My husband and I both have had Doctor Connelly as our Doc. Very caring, honest, explains things. I couldn’t say enough nice things about him and his staff.

Dr. Connolly, his PA, Evan Witt, and his staff were very professional and very nice before, during, and after my right knee replacement. I’m seven weeks since surgery and doing very well. David Weiner

His treatment was terrific. My knee is healing very well, and follow up appointments are very productive. I recommend him highly.

Having been very leery of the major surgery of a hip replacement, I delayed my decision for years,and wish I could get that time back. Dr. Connolly, and the Unity Point (Trinity) teams were amazing in their expertise, and depth of caring. As my remaining rehabilitation continues, I can only hope that others will not wait, as I did. Thank you so much!!! John

They are always very courteous and professional

I like having doc Connolly as my doctor, he is very professional and I truly believe he cares about my problems!

Dr. Connolly is incredibly talented. He is very knowledgeable and up to speed on the latest research. He managed my ACL reconstruction and meniscus surgery. The results are fantastic. Be sure to do everything he says 100% (exercise, PT, etc). I'd recommend him to anyone going through the same procedure.

Dr. Connolly and his team provided excellent and compassionate care in two total knee replacements and a total shoulder replacement. In all cases I've had wonderful outcomes and am active and pain-free.

Great people. Very easy to ask questions and get the answers I needed. Very thankful to have been in there care. Thank you so much. Tim

They are amazing with kids!

Dr. Connolly, Evan and the staff were great! I had both knees replaced last year and I was extremely satisfied with the care and professionalism I received during both experiences, along with the follow-up visits. I could not be happier. Thank you!!!

Listens to me and very thorough! His nursing staff is awesome! I’m feeling so much better! 😀

Highly recommended. Very personable, reassuring, takes time to listen and explain medical matters in laymen’s terms. Universally friendly staff. Have never had to wait long after appointment time.

Such a nice doctor, very polite, actually listens! Makes an otherwise situation more comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

I had my right hip replaced,no problems it feels natural,I would trust Dr.Connolly with any future surgery's I may have.He's a great Dr. & a likable guy.

Very personable, very professional. The greatest!

My appt was very prompt and on time. The staff and doctor were all very nice and helpful. Doctor answered all my questions an explained my MRI. Very polite about explaining why at my age you don't want to have surgery because the arthritis is so bad, doing surgery might not help but if the pain gets worse at any time for me to come back and they would evaluate me again.

I trust doctor Connelly's opinion implicitly. I would recommend him for treatment to anyone.

Dr. Conley is a very caring and compassionate doctor. His reputation precedes him.

I feel really relaxed and comfortable with Dr. Connolly, he lets me know what I have and what my options are and I feel good about that.

Very pleased with the procedure Dr Connolly do on my finger.

Dr. Connolly is very professional. He took the time to evaluate me and prescribe the physical therapy I need to get stronger and heal. Thank you, Dr. Connolly.

Dr Connolly is a caring extremely efficient surgeon that replaced my hip with no problems! I would recommend him to everyone needing orthopedic work done!

De Connolly is a wonderful Dr he repaired my broken wrist, he listened to all my concerns and has a great personality!

Thank You. Dr .Conley. For everything for understanding the pain that I was going through with my knee... I really do appreciate on letting me see you as soon as the day that I made the phone call I will never forget that... An seen my thumb locking. On what needed to be done. Thanks.

Dr Connolly is an awesome Dr and I would recommend him to anyone looking for orthopedic care.

I have always received the best care fro. ORA orthopedics and Dr Connolly. I have had one knee surgery and about to have another and they have always been awesome and caring to my needs. I would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Evan was very professional in my post-Op appointment . He checked my sutures carefully and answered all my questions .Very cordial and had good bedside manner. He immediately made me feel at ease when he came into the room. I would welcome seeing him again.

Dr. Connolly is very thorough. He listens to his patients. I highly recommend him and ORA Orthapedic to everyone.

Amazing appointment! From reception to initial reports, and then xrays; followed by nurse prep the time went very quickly. Dr. Connolly then spent his time giving me the evaluation of my problems; the best course of action, and then fully listened to my questions. From there, he and his staff started working on my required tests, and the schedule up to surgery. My Thanks!! John

I have been a patient of ORA for more than a year. Each visit has been timely and caring. The staff is very professional and empathetic. Thank you.

From the minute you walk in you are made to feel important. I’ve never had a bad experience. Dr. Connolly is the best in every way. Would recommend ORA to anyone 👍

Both knee surgeries did extremely well and the after care provided by the Physician and the Ora staff was very good.

My experience was just great. I couldn't be more pleased, both with ORA and Dr. Connolly. He is the best as far as I'm concerned. I did make sure to pre- condition and build up as much strength as I could ahead of surgery and do all I was told to do after my surgery. It has been a absoulute joy to have new "working great" knees.

Dr. Connolly replaced my right hip on January 21. I was able to play first full round of golf post surgery on April 16 and used a walk-behind mower a week before that. Have been active as I want since then with only a little soreness off and on. Chalk it up to Dr. Connolly’s surgical skill and after-surgery care, plus excellent care from Sam Rowe of Rock Valley Physical Therapy in Moline, Ill. Dr. Connolly is very likable and has a great staff backing him up. I would certainly recommend him to anyone considering hip replacement.

I’ve had a few procedures performed by Dr. Connolly and I have a great respect for him and his entire staff. They are a very professional and caring team, and I have such confidence in them all. I would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone.

Just love Dr.Connolly , wouldn’t go to anyone else trust his decision completely

Have a little reaction today ..face flushed and little chest tightness will get back if needed....!

Received great care from all.

Dr Connolly and the staff were professional and very kind.

Right knee replaced Dec. 2017 Left knee replaced Mar. 2018 Great job all went super well doing everything I want too do climbing ladders using chainsaws

I feel comfortable going to doc Connolly, I believe he really cares about my pain.

The best doctor around. He takes the time to listen to your concerns. I have had several knee surgeries and all recoveries went great! The experience and knowledge he has

He was my doctor of choice and I am completely satisfied. Great care.

Doctor Connolly is the best and very informative.

I saw Dr. Connolly at the Silvis office on February 6. This was a follow up appointment after I had been to Urgent Care the week before. I had fallen and sprained my knee and my foot. Urgent Care will only deal with one body part at a time, so my knee was Xrayed and I was given a knee brace to wear and an appointment for a follow up with my doctor. Dr. Connolly checked my knee and offered to check my foot, too. I had an X-ray taken and then got all my questions answered. I think Dr. Connolly is a saint. It is frustrating to make separate visits for each body part that is hurting.

Had my hip replaced in July. Feel great now! Everyone at ora was fantastic.

He's very professional but also very easy to talk to about procedures. I like him!

Highly professional and excellent Doctor patient communication.

My husband and I have both gone to Dr. Connolly for our knees for the last couple years. My husband had a double knee replacement last year and is doing great. I have had the cortisone shots every 3 months for the last couple years. I am having one knee replaced in April. I totally trust Dr. Connolly and look forward to being able to walk pain free again.

Dr Connolly is the best in his field. Very articulate, open and honest, and explains the situation and process with great detail. Great experience during difficult times.

Highly competent surgeon. He spends time with you, explains options, and best of all...his reputation for successful surgeries is stellar.

They're always friendly & really care about their patient!!

Dr. Connelly has taken care of my knees and back for seven years now. He listens and will take time to explain all aspects of care. I know that eventually I will probably have to have knee replacements. I just hope he doesn’t retire before that time! I recommend him and his medical team.

Very pleased with doctor Connolly, he listens to my complaints, and I’ve received excellent care from him!

Dr. Connolly is a very caring orthopedic physician. He takes time to answer questions. I appreciate that he makes treatment suggestions that relieve the discomfort without drugs or surgery. The staff also are very caring and friendly.

Everyone takes the time needed to answer any and all questions. A gentle touch goes a long way when you are in pain.

Everyone is great, very friendly, helpful, patient. Doctor Connolly and his associates have been great, pre/surgery......surgery.....and post/OP. I am very pleased with my hip replacement. NO REGRETS (except for falling and breaking my hip).

Dr. Connolly has the best bedside manners, as well as being a great surgeon. His staff is also very accommodating.

Dr Connolly is an amazing Dr. He cares so much about his patients. He always takes time to talk to you and gives you time to ask questions and answers any concerns you may have. I would never see any orthopedic dr besides Dr Connolly unless he said i should. He really is the best there is!!!

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

Excellent patient care, along with compassion for their field.

I have been seeing Dr. Connolly for years. He has helped my wife and I several times. I would not let anyone other than Dr. Connolly take care of my joints. As a matter of fact he replacing my knee next month.

My appointment was on time as scheduled . I was treated cordial and profesionly.

very professional staff

Dr. E. Connolly inserted a knee replacement without any complications. I highly recommend him and his competent staff.

I have been very happy with Dr. Connolly and his staff, Evan Witt and Chelsea, his surgery scheduling nurse. And any other people I have come in contact with have been kind, helpful and professional. Dr. Connolly did my left shoulder replacement 3-1/2 years ago and I got along well with it. Wouldn’t have wanted anyone else to do my right one. I prefer going to see them at Larsen Center in Silvis as it is smaller and not nearly as crowded as 7th street location. I highly recommend them. Dr. Connolly has also replaced a hip and a knee fir my husband too.

Knowledgeable great communicator - cares about my concerns

long wait but worth it

I recommend Dr. Connolly to anyone with knee pain. He and another surgeon performed a total knee replacement on both knees simultaneously. I am grateful every day with my new mobility and lack of pain! Dr. Connolly is professional, efficient, honest and answers questions thoroughly.

My experience at ORA Orthopedics was awesome. Everyone was professional and treated me with kindness and was concerned.

Dr Connolly is the best they are so busy it takes a while to get in

I am very appreciative of all Dr. Connolly has done for me. He is a great doctor who will take the time to explain everything to you and he does an outstanding job in the operating room and in the follow up appointments.

Very pleased with Doc Connolly, I’ve had hip replacement and other medical help, I would highly recommend him.

I've never broken a bone until I turned 55. ORA was on top of their game. The cast room crew was amazing. The E-ray room was friendly and caring. I had seen a few different Drs. Dr. Connley was my primary and his assistant was awesome. if you break something, I recommend ORA.

Always courteous and helpful staff you are on top of my concerns.

Dr Connolly and his crew are the best, I recommend them highly for carpal tunnel release, I should have done it sooner

My moms knee was so bad we were told it was one of the worse they've seen. For years she painfully struggled just to get from one room to another. Now, two weeks after surgery, she's zipping around the house without a care. My sister and I have to slow this 83 year old down as she's still healing but positive she's well on her way to full recovery and independence. I'd like to say thank you to Dr Connolly and staff
