Patient Reviews
Good experience. Calm approach
Love Dr. Berry and ORA too. You never have to wait everything’s always clean and bright
Dr. Berry was friendly, knowledgeable, and extremely helpful in getting the care my son needed. I would definitely recommend him to friends and family.
Super awesome. Super friendly. And to the point. Just from the conversation with him it really felt like he knew what he was doing.
Explained what was going on with my symptoms and why. Explained surgery very well. Just a bit nervous and need to think about it.
Dr. Berry is an outstanding physician and surgeon. He has helped me find relief from my chronic back issues. With his help, I've been able to return to, and continue my physical activities. For a time, epidural shots helped. When the the back issues got to be limiting he helped me weigh out the surgical options. The results of the surgery he preformed have been a welcome relief and benefit.
This Dr is amazing. He zeroed in on my problem that two other physicians missed right away. He explainwd clearly what the problem is and how to fix it. I felt such relief after talking with him. Thank you, Dr Berry, I am so happy to have you on my care team.
Very good man Dr Berry it went as he said it would. So I completely trust him. He is very professional.The best DOCTOR.
Thorough explanation of the deterioration in my lower spine and clear description of the best options for my situation.
Dr Berry was very knowledgeable and honest and helpful.
Phenomenal
He was very good and took the time to explain everything in detail. Very impressed with him. Will definitely recommend him to others if needed.
I had two separate surgeries with Dr Berry. Both went excellent and Dr Berry does an excellent job explaining everything up to and after surgery. He takes time to answer questions and go over all options possible.
Doctors explanation of my surgery was very thorough. He is knowledgeable and cares about his patients. I like it that he is a graduate of Alleman
Dr. Berry and his staff have been very pleasant and extremely patient explaining every detail regarding my injury and surgery. I would recommend him to anyone with spine issues in the surrounding area.
Awesome experience. I went in for a back issue and explained I was also having knee pain probably arthritis in both Knees. Expected to hear make another appt. then x-ray appt. then another doctor's appt. Dr. Berry had x-rays done while I was there and even gave me a shot in the worse of my knees. Thanks for taking such good care of me.
Dr. Berry, was very friendly, and knowledgeable! He let me know exactly what my issue was and what my treatment options were. Great stuff as well very friendly and polite.
Dr Barry was very kind and very thorough. He explained the procedure in a clear, gentle, and understandable way. He answered all our questions and addressed our concerns. I'm getting a second opinion, from a Dr. at Rush Hospital that is being referred to us from Dr Barry, only because the thought of back fusion surgery is something I consider to be a big decision and that's just my personality. As well as words of advice that I've always heard. Thank you Dr Barry!
Top notch facility
My experience went very smoothly and efficiently. Wait time was extremely minimal. Dr. Berry was very professional and friendly, putting me at ease.
Dr. Berry & his staff were very attentive and extremely kind. I have had severe back pain and the office sceduled an appointment for me the next business day. Dr Berry was so knowledgeable and personable He explained things professionally and patiently, in a manner completely understandable. I am happy to get on the path to healing. Thanks so much, Dr. Berry & Staff! ⭐️ Highly recommend!
ORA,Always take care of his patiences I like their services. thank you i got a Appt.for Monday 29. at 10:30 am. i will be there.
Everyone was polite and efficient. Dr. Berry gave his professional opinion during visit and scheduled a MRI to confirm. Appreciate his concern and resolve to address the issue.
Dr Berry is great! He helped me 11 years ago with a spinal fusion and is seeing me for an unrelated problem now. Highly recommend!!!
Great consultation. He walked me through every step of what he saw on the MRI and helped me understand the surgery and all of the options I have given my case and symptoms. Highly recommend.
Very nice and Explains things well
If I could give Dr Berry 10 Stars I would. I went to him seeking help for my sciatica pain. He listened when no one else would, He's very understanding, very clear in what his plan would be to fix my sciatica. 7 weeks post-op and I feel absolutely wonderful better than I was over a year ago when it all started, I highly recommend Dr Berry
Dr. Barry is amazing! After my car accident injury I was in excruciating pain due to a cervical spine injury that was misdiagnosed by ER. When getting in to see Dr. Barry he explained everything that was going on did same day MRI and had surgery scheduled right away to fuse broken vertebrae in my neck, I had immediate pain relief after surgery! To say I was nervous going into surgery would be an understatement but thanks to Dr. Barry and his amazing staff and staff at unity point Rock Island I am on the road to recovery!
Dr. Berry is amazing and very detailed when explaining what our plan of action is. Honest and straight forward. Best in the QC hands down!
I wanted to see a doctor for my spinal issue. In my past experience other doctors will have their PA’s do all the work and then you get 2 minutes of their time while they tell you what you need to do with limited ability to ask questions. They are hurried and appear as if you are wasting their time because they need to get to the next patient. This was NOT the case with Dr Berry. He talked to me about my issue, went through options, answered questions and was thorough. He put me at ease with a treatment plan that was mutually agreed upon. I was so happy to have conversed with an actual human being who was trying to help me! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate his approach and would suggest him to anyone.
Dr Berry listened to everything my wife and I had to say about the problem with my back. He evaluated my MRI and explained what needed to be done. Surgery was done expertly.
Friendly staff. Giving me a clear look at my diagnosis
(Translated by Google) I was a patient of Dr. Berry. He performed L4-L5 spinal surgery and other procedures on me. I am eternally grateful. Dr. Berry is very professional. My surgery was a success, and now, after six weeks, I am walking very well without a walker. His entire team is very ethical and efficient, which I greatly appreciate. I congratulate Dr. Berry and highly recommend him. Thank you, Dr. Berry. God bless you. (Original) Fui Paciente Dr Berry Me practico Cirugía de L4 L5 y otros procedimientos en la misma . Estoy eternamente Agradecida Dr Berry es muy Profesional . Mi Cirugía fue un Éxito y Ahora después de 6 Semanas estoy caminando muy bien sin Ayuda del Andador . Todo su Equipo son muy Ethicos y eficientes . , lo cual Agradezco mucho . Y Felicito al Dr Berry 100 por ciento Recomendado. Gracias Dr Berry Dios lo Bendiga .
Loved the way he explained everything in good or bad experiences in every way I would recommend him to anyone with back issues
I would recommend Dr. Berry to others. He helped me understand the location of my pain. He was polite and took time to address my concerns.
Dr. Berry was professional, compassionate, and informative. He is an excellent surgeon, and explains information in a straightforward style. He went above and beyond to make sure I received a high level of care in a timely manner. Thank you!
Dr Berry was very professional. He listened to my concerns and went over my options for treatment. He made me feel very comfortable with my upcoming surgery. Also Dr Berry’s staff is wonderful.
All good
Very professional very easy to talk to and very knowledgeable
I’m a retired teacher and wrestling coach of 35 years. I abused my body and did things that several adults told me that I shouldn’t. I wrestled for 13 years at a high level in High school and college, before taking on coaching. I was a hands on type coach until my late forties. I have had several injuries and aches & pains! Last year, I developed a bad static nerve pain that altered my life ! I tried therapy, pain pills, chiropractic care , continsone injections and nothing cured the pain I was suffering. I chose Dr. Berry to treat me, he immediately got me in for a MRI and two days later performed L-2 & L-3 vertebrate surgery. It was amazing relief without any rehabilitation needed! I got my life back and can enjoy things again! Very pleased with my results… Dan
Very through and pleasant to discuss my situation
Dr. Berry was very attentive and helpful. Answered my questions thoroughly. I felt well taken care of and would undoubtedly return to his care if needed. Thank you for your knowledge and care
It was my first visit . Dr. Barry was very cordial very nice and the staff were wonderful too. We’re just doing tests right now in MRI to see what’s going on.
I wish he could have help me. I here he a very good surgeon.
Had my initial visit with Dr. Berry to explore options/treatment for my lower back discomfort the other day. He was patient, asked a lot of questions, performed a couple of initial tests, etc. He did not jump to any conclusions, ordered some PT, an MRI, and scheduled a follow-up meeting. Liked his energy and his ability to outline a treatment plan that I am comfortable with.
Dr. Berry was great. He explained everything very well. He quickly put me at ease. I had waited two weeks for the results of the MRI, anxiously waiting and expecting the results to be much different. Thank you for putting me at ease!! Gene Frey
Dr. Berry and his staff are great! He always takes time to listen and explain options. Great doctor and great nurses!
Dr Berry performed a minimally invasive 2 level lumbar fusion on me and I couldn’t be happier with the results. He was very thorough, took time to answer my questions and listened to my concerns. His office team was super with responding to questions and calls and helping with needed paperwork. 10 out of 10 experience!
Dr Barry has done several of my surgeries. He is excellent, honest snd upfront with your cares. My most recent surgery was unplanned and an emergency. Dr Barry again was honest about what I was facing and as far as my daughter and I see it, he saved my life. This was a bad infection in the blood. Thank You Dr Barry. You are now and will always be my hero. I feel blessed every day Im alive. Highly recommend Dr Barry.
Dr. Barry and Staff very professional took away my pain very quickly
Dr. Berry is an excellent surgeon who does nothing short of amazing work. He made me feel at ease and comfortable throughout my injury. I had a total disc replacement between my C5-C6 and it honestly feels as strong or stronger than before my injury. Dr. Berry and his exceptional staff are top notch and I would highly recommend to anyone!
Dr Barry explained my surgery simply and completely and the follow up from his and his office was exceptional.
So thankful for Dr. Berry. He was very good at explaining what would happen during my back surgery. I highly recommend him to anyone that is suffering with back issues. My back feels awesome!🤗
As always great.
Very happy with everything. All good!
I work in medicine myself. I’m sure he can recite what he says to patients in his sleep. He seemed rushed. I forgot to ask, but it would have been cool to actually see my MRI films. He answered my questions but seemed to have one foot ready to get out the door. He did say surgery was not his first option based on my presentation. That made me happy!
So incredibly thankful for Dr. Berry! He was wonderful at explaining exactly what was going on with my back. Day of surgery he thoroughly explained everything answered all of our questions & surgery went great! Highly recommend!
They are. Very professional friendly staff I have had several procedures done by them. Would re to anyone
The doc is great, feel much better now after surgery
Dr. Berry was so good about explaining everything to me from showing me where my problem was , explaining the surgery and giving me stats on what might happen after. I feel so confident about getting my surgery done by O.R.A.
I was referred to Dr. Berry for neck/shoulder pain. I had several surgeries over the past few years and was not wanting another. Dr. Berry came into the room, totally familiar with my case and explained what he saw and what he recommended. He was patient, kind, and answered all our questions. I had the surgery in Sept. and am so much better! I believe he diagnosed me correctly and saved me from much worse problems in the future.
Dr. Berry came to the exam room well versed on my radiology test results. He explained my options and made referrals to meet the needs of my case. While he was not able to perform the extensive and complicated surgical procedure required, he provided me with options to address my pain and directed me to medical facilities that would be able to perform surgery should I need/want it in the future. He shows a high level of compassion in his interaction with me.
Dr. Berry performed a miracle on my messed up back. From the time he was recommended, through surgery and then follow up he lives up to all the great comments that led me to him in the first place. Professional and caring with great staff. I hope I never have to have another back surgery but if I do, I would only use Dr. Berry.
Dr Berry was very professional and informative. He explained the procedure and answered all of my questions. He was confident and shared both the pros and cons of outcomes of my surgery. I am hoping to get scheduled as soon as possible.
Dr. Berry was very friendly and professional. I appreciate that he was honest and told me surgery was not needed. I would highly recommend.
Dr Berry was very nice. He is very helpful in letting me know what is going on with my back.
Great doctor takes the time to explain what us going on with your health.
I visited Dr. Berry after well over 12 years of back pain but earlier this year I pulled my back so bad that my L4 L5 were slipped and pinching the nerve down my leg. I couldn’t walk without a cane or a walker. End result is that Dr. Berry got me in and took care of me. I was nervous before meeting Dr. Berry but after meeting him and hearing his knowledge of my problem gave me confidence in putting my back in his hands. I was up at walking after 2 hours of my surgery, without a cane or walker. I haven’t felt this good in well over 12 years and can now sleep over 6 hours in bed without my back locking up on me anymore and no pain during the day any longer. Thank you Dr. Berry for the AMAZING job on relieving the pain I no longer have.
Dr Berry was very thorough and listened to my issues and gave me some great options.

I had an appointment with Dr. Berry, I was about 15 minutes early and they got me right in. After I was examined he explained everything to me so I could understand stand what I was needing done.
XLIF procedure performed by Dr Berry. I’m very happy with the results.
Listen closely to what has been giving issues and then explained MRI and X-ray results and what he felt was the next step to get me back to as normal life as able.
I went misdiagnosed for years by numerous providers and therapists (15+) for severe low back/sacral pain. I saw Dr Berry who listened intently to my history and coordinated a diagnostic SI joint injection for me. It has been life changing and I can’t thank him enough for the time he spent with me. After 3.5 years of crippling pain I finally have my quality of life back and working full time again.
Dr. Berry was very forthcoming & communicative in regards to my surgical procedure & what to expect after surgery. He even came by my hospital room to check on me the next day. This was my first surgery &: he reassured me my operation was common & everything would be just fine.
Listened to me and all my questions and concerns
Up front with options and very personable. Very prompt and timely office visit also!
Dr. Barry was the best. He was clear and concise on everything that was going to happen before, during and after surgery. Answered all my questions and made sure I was confortable and understood everything. Highly recommend!

Highly recommend Dr. Berry. He has now done my neck and recently my lower back. He doesn't do unnecessary surgery. He is straight forward, explains everything and why things need or not to be done. I am a person who chooses natural treatments. Dr. Berry listed to my questions and concerns and takes the time to make sure you understand what and why of things. Love the staff that work with him.
