They sure take care you..I recommend ORA
Dr Dunlay was very informative about my injury and extremely helpful in explaining the situation and what I need to do and what the treatment will be . He was very clear about my X-rays and the next steps. Highly recommend him.
I went to ORA for help with an injury to my knee. I hurt it doing martial arts and didn’t take time for it to heal… so eventually it got worse. Dr. Dunlay did a great job of treating my injured knee as well as helping me determine what sports I could still do while it healed. With a procedure he was able to do right there in the office, along with replacing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing with swimming laps for a short while, my knee is much better and I should be back on the mats next week! Dr. Dunlay helped me get back to doing what I love!
I recently saw Dr. Ryan Dunlay and he was great. He explained my condition well and offered the best solution for getting me up and going again. He is very kind and loves what he does and his enthusiasm shows.
Dr dunlay was absolutely amazing! I came in not knowing I had a labrum tear that was pretty extensive. He walked me through the entire process and answered every question I had along the way. He came out after surgery to ensure that my mom knew everything and felt like she had all of her questions answered as well. Would recommend to anyone!
Dr. Dunlay excellent, knowledgeable. friendly, professional. Recommend highly.
Dr. Dunlay was a awesome doctor. Very professional. Overall I was very happy, i would different ask for Dr. Dunlay again. He was so nice and give encouragement in my treatment.
Dr. Dunlay and his staff did a great job.
Dr. Dunlay is a caring, gentle doctor. Dr. Dunlay is careful to keep pain at a minimum with numbing spray before injection, and he has an amazing personality.
As always all staff and DrDunlay are great they talk to you and answer questions thanks to everyone there
A confident and caring professional that takes time to answer my questions or concerns. I’m Very pleased and so grateful for my hip replacement 3 years ago and also, with the current treatment of my knee, of which will need replacement this fall. I highly recommend Dr. Dunlay
Really great doctor.
Facility is clean and friendly, even when they’re busy. Nursing staff, radiology all very warm and friendly; taking the time needed listening to complaints and concerns. Dr Dunlay, took his time to listen and assess my issues even though in todays ‘deadline’ mentality, he sat, listened and discussed my concerns
Very knowledgeable and very caring. Facility was excellent as is the care they give. Not enough stars, would give 5 more if I could.
Dr. Dunlay takes time to explain any procedure and answer questions. His staff are very helpful setting up procedures and answering questions too. Wait times are reasonable and I never felt rushed. Many reminders are sent by texts. Excellent experience. Thank you.
Skillful and caring.
Dr. Dunlay always explains the situation in terms I can understand. He gives me options and allows me input in what I want to do
Dr Dunlay did a great job on my hip replacement without damaging muscles. He took the time to listen and answer all my questions. Very personable.
I would highly recommend Dr Dunlay. He took good care of me with my rotator cuff surgery and listened intently to all my concerns. It is so nice to have a doctor who listens and puts the patient first. Donna Nichols
All in all I feel like the reverse shoulder surgery went really well. Dr Dunlay was and still is very informative.
I saw Doctor Dunlay for a rotator cuff surgery. He was very thorough in his explanation of what would take place and the recovery time. He answered all my questions in full.
Had a very short visit with Dr. Dunley, but within that time period, he was very open, thorough, honest and transarent. Excellent beside manner, great energy and great to deal with so far.
I’m sure Dr Dunlay is very competent but he might not be the best orthopedic specialist for my condition When I first went to ORA I saw a PA who diagnosed my problem as “scapular bursitis “ and she prescribed a prednisone routine This medication helped with my discomfort. Several days later I saw Dr Dunlay. ORA scheduled this visit without my input or request After examining me he said “I’m a shoulder doctor not a back doctor” He then told me I could go on a prednisone routine to see if that helps I told him I just completed that routine It was noted in my file and I told him I was scheduled for PT next week He suggested I try PT and if things didn’t improve to contact him in about a month to try something else In retrospect when I found out Dr Dunlay is more proficient with shoulder problems I probably should have stopped our meeting and asked for someone with back expertise to continue my diagnosis and treatment
Dr. Dunlay was thorough with his explanations of my treatment plan for my upcoming surgery. He answered all of our questions and explained all of the possible options for treatment. He was easy to talk to and made me feel comfortable about having my first surgery. The staff that has helped me throughout treatment so far has also been fantastic.
Great doctor, explained everything really well.
Dr Dunlay did both of my knee replacements and it's the best thing I have done!!! He did a great job and a very nice doctor! Thanks doc!
Dr. Dunlay was thorough and listened to what my son and I had to say. He did not jump to any conclusions and he did not push for imaging right away.
Dr. Dunlay and his staff are a positive and encouraging provider. Highly recommended.
Dr. Dunlay explained in great details the X-rays of my shoulder. He didn’t jump into having surgery. I felt he had my best interests in mind and he cared about me as a patient.
Dr Ryan Dunley did both my hips I have Ra they couldn't be any better Stephanie all his other staff kind loving friendly all that work with him when have surgery at Genesis east were wonderful also and the Dr puts you to sleep thankyou Cindy Kay millerpowers
Very knowledgeable and personable, he took time to explain care to my and daughter and myself. Listened to our concerns and answered all our questions.
Dr. Dunlay is great! He completed a full repair on my ACL and a torn bucket handle on an old injury I had. He was very thorough prior to surgery, and was great at every check up afterwards. If I need another repair, he will be the one I go to!
Dr. Dunlay did a fantastic job doing my shoulder surgery. His expertise and medical knowledge was very helpful to me in my recovery. I knew I was in good hands when I met someone else who had him as a surgeon, and how highly they spoke of him. I would also like to throw in a kudos to the PT department on how well my PT is currently going. I would recommend anyone to ORA.
Surgery was very successful. I am entirely satisfied with Dr. Dunlay’s work.
The staff and Doctor are so kind. I felt at ease talking with Dr. Dunlay. He explained things to me so that I could understand.
Dr. Dunlay introduced himself immediately upon entering the exam room even though he had treated me several years earlier and recognized me. He proceeded to ask me the reason for my visit and listened to my description intently and patiently. Dr. Dunlay then described his recommends. A soon as we agreed on a course of action he proceeded in a timely manner to treat me and I was able to leave the exam room. My entire visit was efficient, timely and pleasant.
Absolutely great experience with Dr Dunlay. Very knowledgeable and personable. Easy to understand and very helpful.
I have really appreciated Ryan Dunlay’s help over the last few years, my knees and shoulders have felt the best they have in nearly 20 years.
He makes you feel very comfortable. I did not feel like another old person complaining about my pain.I always recommend him.He did not push surgery on me.
Dr. Dunlay is very personable willing to answer questions. I am glad he will be my surgeon.
Dr.Dunlay is a very complete doctor in that he explains the process of not only your options to types of procedures are available to but how they will impact you as a patient. I would highly recommend him for what ails you.
Dr. Dunlay is amazing. He has a great bed side manner, and is very informative when I need to know my options. He did my carpal tunnel surgery, and it turned out great, I have not had any issues with it at all. I am now seeing him for joint pain in my elbow. Have had 2 cortisone shots so far, and he gave me my options going forward. I am happy that I found him, he makes me feel at ease.
Staff is very friendly, prompt, and professional. I was in and out before my appointment time!
Dr. Dunlay and all his staff are wonderful. They are efficient, professional and timely. Their kindness, care and understanding proves to be wonderful bedside manner. Their expertise is unmatched, the best, hands down. I would highly recommend Dr. Dunlay and the ORA staff.
This has to be one of the best Doctor’s office if not the best. Everyone is always so professional, helpful and welcoming in greeting each person. Dr Dunley is absolutely the Best 🥰💝
every one was very professional. also very helpful ☺
Dr. Dunlay and his team were amazing with my son during this difficult time. Dr. Dunlay patiently explained details of his surgery and recovery. He answered every question with clarity and in a way that we would understand. His staff was supportive, efficient, and kind. This has been a very trying 10 months from injury to recovery. We are so blessed to have such a skilled surgeon and team i the QC area. Thank you, Dr. Dunlay.
I was given a 6 month recovery time to return back to my sport and Ora got me back in 4 and a half great environment and care about your progress
Pleasure to talk to doctor with a sense of humor.
Great surgeons and follow ups are thorough.
I've experienced good results at ORA. Everyone from the doctors, nurses and supporting staff are very professional and have done a wonderful job. I'm 69 and this is my first time experiencing a broken bone and needing treatment. The bone I broke was the ulna bone in my forearm. During the examination Dr. Dunlay was short and to the point of the treatment that was needed. He answered all of my questions. He didn't think surgery was required based on the type of break. He felt that the bone would repair itself with the support of wearing a hardcast. After week 3, I went back for my followup examination and x-rays. Everything seems to be slowly progressing and now I'm wearing a soft-cast that I can removed when bathing. Hopefully after 3 more weeks I may not required a cast, time will tell. Dr. Dunlay noticed arthritis buildup in the x-rays on my wrist. He said some therapy may be required. Dr. Dunlay is very thorough and I would recommend him to anyone.
People with great personalities work there!
From day one Dr. Dunlay has been very honest with me. I didn’t want to have surgery at that time. So I continued with PT and steroid injections. May of this year I came in to see him and said it’s time, I can’t move my are and shoulder pain was not getting better. I had rotator cuff surgery and he had to repair my bicep tendon as well. I’m 5 weeks post op and doing better everyday! I would definitely recommend him to anyone. The whole staff is just amazing!
Reminders for appointment were great. Everyone is professional, yet friendly. Got in to appointment right on time. Dr. Dunlay answered all my questions and showed me X-rays and explained what I was seeing. I have seen him once before for a shoulder issue and appreciate his pleasant and professional demeanor. Great experience. Highly recommend.
I strongly recommend Ryan Dunlay
All very satisfactory No problems
Dr. Dunlay was personable, listened and allowed time for my questions.
Dr dunlay was wonderful. After tearing my meniscus at work he did surgery to repair the complex tear. He was very personable and had a great bedside manner. Would go back to him of need be on the future
Dr Dunlay was great! He did my surgeries for a bucket handle minuscus tear and ACL tear on my knee. He was very professional, knowledgeable, respectful of our time and resources, thoroughly explained the MRI results and our options for treatment, and patiently answered all of my many questions. He had a well developed recovery plan, and along with PT and home exercises, my knee has nearly fully recovered in 6 months! I highly recommend him for treatment!!
13 Feb 21: Dr. Dunlay listened to my concerns and desire to return to my active lifestyle that involved biking and hiking. The left hip replacement was expertly done and I am back to nearly 100% of all previous activities after less than 5 months. I am so incredibly pleased with my experience. Should my other hip need the same procedure, I would not hesitate to call on Dr. Dunlay to perform my surgery. As of 28 Sep 22: 8 months after surgery, I had a fall riding my rode bike. As a testament to his expert work, the hip held perfectly. The right hip arthritis has gotten worse, so I'm planning to do this hip in a couple months. Can't wait for next summer activities with 2 new hips!
Good experience. Dr Dunlay was very professional and got me taken care of right away.
The most efficient, on-time medical office I’ve ever been to. My 12 year old son needed X-rays and an MRI to diagnose a knee problem. Staff was friendly and helpful and the doctor provided a concise and thoughtful diagnosis as well as provide a sensible plan for rehabilitation in lieu of surgery.
All employees and doctors very helpfull and very pleasant
Caring nurses and a wonderful Dr. The check in employees are the best there is.
Dr. Dunlay was able to assess my knee compared to the last x-ray s and gave me a couple options. I went with he first option and am feeling better less than 24 hours later.
I'm very happy with the treatment I have received from ORA, Dr Dunlay!!!
Ryan Dunlay is always very attentive and listen to my needs.
Was seen on time and grateful that my appt was in Clinton so I did not have to drive to Bettendorf. Staff was professional and courteous. Dr Dunlay is extremely efficient and receptive to questions.
Received an exam and medical treatment for my arthritis in my knee. It feels great and ready to play golf
ORA Orthopedics is a great place for your needs , they have great bedside manners and Dr. Dunlay takes good care of you !!!!
Had a pleasant visit 😊
Dr. Dunlay was very thorough and professional. He made sure I had no questions.
Dr. Dunlay has a great bedside manor... he listens to what you have to say along with your concerns....takes the time to makes sure that you understand completely and doesn't rush.... his nursing staff is wonderful .....
I've had both of my full knee replacements done at ORA by Dr. Dunlay, assisted by Mrs Stephanie Coiner, and Jaycee (I hope I spelled that right). Both knee replacements were very successful. Mrs Stephanie, JayCee and Dr Dunlay all have wonderful bedside manners. At each of my appointments, I've come with many questions. All three of them have taken their turn answering them. I've never felt rushed, as one might feel with other practices, with other people. They were kind and caring and made me feel very comfortable. Their understanding and willingness to share their expertise made me feel safe and secure having these surgeries done. I'm so very thankful for the parts that all three played in giving me back my life; my ability to walk, stand, play with my kids and even dance occasionally. It's not often you find a practice full of people that all seamlessly work together to help you. I'm grateful that I was referred to ORA, to be cared for by the wonderful people above. *Every employee I interacted with from administrative professionals to X Ray technicians helped make my overall experience great. I appreciated their positive demeanors, and their "one call or interaction" type of mentality/approach. i.e. Actively listening to my concern, asking appropriate questions to ensure my needs were addressed without requiring additional follow-up on that specific concern. It's so refreshing to see employees that really love their jobs. That's often difficult to find in any customer service environment these days. For all the reasons above, and the people involved, I will be choosing ORA for other occurrences that might require their services. Thank you so much-from my knees to the bottom of my heart! Francesca~ 🙂🙏👍✨
Dr. Dunlay was very straight forward with everything I should expect and really took my opinion into perspective when it came to my aftercare! I would recommend him and his team to anyone that is in need of a total hip replacement!!!!
ORA has taken care of my family since I can remember. They have great Physicians and staff. I highly recommend them.
I consider myself extremely fortunate to have had Dr. Dunlay do the surgery on my torn rotator cuff muscle. From day one Dr. Dunlay was there for me, answering all my questions and concerns in a kind and caring manner. This man is a truly gifted surgeon and compassionate physician. Our community is extremely lucky to have him practice here in Bettendorf. I would highly recommend Dr. Dunlay to anyone, as he gave me my life back! Thanks again Dr. !
Very professional and compassionate and straight forward!!!
My name is Shane, in my honest opinion, Dr. Dunlay was very professional, and approachable. He answered every question I had, and the 20 others my wife had. Even while being busy, he never seemed disinterested or disingenuous.
Dr. Dunlay was very helpful and reassured me that my upcoming surgery is needed and will help relieve some of my pain and help me with motion.
Excellent experience
Very knowledgeable and caring. Highly skilled.
Worked very well with my son who is only four years old. He helped explain the situation very well.
Dr Dunlay is a very caring professional who takes the welfare of patients very serious and has an excellent way of administering medications when needed. He takes the time to listen and will explain whatever procedure that is being administered at that time.
Very knowledgeable and personable. He has helped with my knee pain and never pushes anything you dont want done. I highly recommend him.
Great service, quick appointments, and resolution to my issues with good listening and communication skills.

Dr. Goes above and beyond and gets you in a timely manner.
Dr. Dunlay helped me make an informed decision to go forward with surgery by outlining all my options, answering my questions and addressing my concerns. I read a lot of other patient reviews and am certain he's the right choice for my surgery.
I was able to get in in a timely manner. The doctor listened to me and offered options. We scheduled another appointment and that one was also in the near future. Overall a great experience. Second visit since surgery Was seen on time and grateful that my appt was in Clinton so I did not have to drive to Bettendorf. Staff was professional and courteous. Dr Dunlay is extremely efficient and receptive to questions.
Quick and easy appts. Took time to thoroughly explain my injury and treatment. Very personable.
Dr.Dunlay has always given me the correct advice I needed for my injury's.....I would recommend Dr.Dunlay in a second for great treatment and sound advice.... AAA+++
ORA and their Staff were great . However, Physical Therapy they prescribed called me 15 min. before my appt to cancel. I was in the parking lot, drove all the way from LeClaire. I am self employed and time is money for me. I do not think that is right.
Thank you for your professionalism in treating me yesterday
Good physicians and knowledgeable for your recovery.
Very professional. They take time to explain all different options and answer any questions or concerns. No pressure, just gives you the information to make an informed decision. Having my 2nd knee replacement in December. I have complete confidence in Dr. Dunlay and the ORA staff.
Good service very friendly
