Patient Reviews
The wait was a little long but Dr Pokoney was great. He spent a lot of time listening to my concerns, I never felt rushed. His explanation were easy to understand. I think he was awsome.
Very friendly staff and very professional
Incredible surgeon with a friendly bedside manner. Recommended him to family and friends!
Dr. Pokorney explained everything concerning my condition completely. Answered my questions completely and performed my total knee replacement with consummate skill.
ORA is one of the best groups I have received care from. The doctors, nurses, PAs, and all the staff are super friendly and answer all my questions. They have a cheerful attitude and make me feel so comfortable! Doctor Pokorney and Dr. Shay are two of the very best doctors that. I have been lucky enough to perform my procedures. I will always be grateful for their fine work. They are personable, answer all my questions. And like the rest of the staff very cheerful. I am always a nervous patient and it shows itself in my need to talk too much. I appreciate their patience and their kindness and understanding. I would recommend any of the staff and physicians to anyone who needs this specialized care. Glad to have the opportunity to share my thoughts. Thanks!
Was very informative and expedited my game plan for my care ,, Impressed

I’ve had 2 surgeries from Dr. Pokorney and my experience has with him and his staff has been great! From the receptionist to nursing staff, everyone works hard to make you feel comfortable.
There is NOBODY in the QC I will see for my knee issues. He and his staff are EXCELLENT and the best I have ever experienced in the years of seeing Orthopedic Physicians. Highly recommend!
Nice dr. Answers questions would recommend
Dr. Pokorney was very warm and friendly. Took the time to review x-rays and patiently explain options until we arrived at plan of action. Suggested a follow up in 3 months to check on status.
I've seen Sr Porkorney for my rt hip replacement and now the left hook!! His bedside manner is amazing!! The whole staff work very hard!! Thank you for a job well done!
Heartfelt thank you to Dr Pokorney and the entire ORA staff involved in my hip replacement. My quality of life has been restored! A gift of immeasurable value. God bless you all… John Oosterhuis MAJ, US Army, Retired
Knowledgeable, warm and so kind and friendly!! Highly recommend Dr. Pokorney!!
Extremely pleased with every aspect of my experience with Dr. Pokorney. He and his staff are professional and helpful with any questions or concerns that you may have. My hip replacement went really well and has given me a greater freedom to be active again!
Dr. Pokorney has been amazing. He let's his patience decide on the best options for them. I wish I would have seen him Yeats ago.
The doctor and the staff are great. The only downfalls I had to wait an hour to be seen from my appointment
He is a doctor who takes the time with his patients. It meant everything everything to me when I stepped into a very busy ORA to have my time with him unhurried, relaxed and friendly while being professionally tuned in to my needs as a patient. Thankful I found him.
Dr Pokorney did my knee replacement surgery. He has good bed side manners, personality, informative & listens.
Both Dr Pokorney and Dan explained what is happening with my knee.
He is a nice guy and good doctor
Dr Pokorney did a revision on my knee replacement. He did a great job! It was a complete different experience from the first time another doctor did it. He listened to me and was very knowledgeable.
I saw Dr. Pokorney for the first time. A previous hip injection didn’t provide the kind of relief that I had hoped. He showed me my X-rays and gave me options after thoroughly explaining. I chose what I thought was best for me at this time. He took plenty of time with me and answered all questions. I highly recommend.
Dr Pokorney did my total hip replacement. He and his P. A. ,Dan, are the best doctors anyone could possibly have. They made me feel like I was a person and not just another case. I did and do feel very comfortable with their ability to help get you back to the place you want to be in your health journey. My hip feels wonderful. I would whole heartedly recommend Dr. Pokorney for anyone thinking about hip replacement surgery.
Wait time was 45 minutes past.my appointment time. Other than that the appointment was good.
Dr Ryan Pokorney D. O. Is an excellent doctor and surgeon! I was in a lot of pain and he took X-rays and looked at my previous tests. He told me that I needed surgery to fix my knee and I agreed. He did an excellent job and made the scar on my knee nice and thin which really made me very happy! He is one of the best orthopedic surgeons I have dealt with! He’s very knowledgeable, compassionate, considerate and explained everything to me in terms that I could understand! His PA Daniel is very knowledgeable and compassionate and answered all my questions. Dr Pokorney’s nurse is very helpful and nice too. I would definitely recommend Dr Pokorney and his staff to anyone that needs orthopedic care!
He was right to the point, showed me how the procedure (hip replacement) would be done. Explained that arthritis was the reason for my pain and stiffness
Dr Pokorney and his team did and excellent job on Cecilia's hip replacement They were very pleasant and very concerned with her before and after the surgery. They also kept the family informed as things happened. THANK EVERYONE!
I really like Dr. Pokorney. He is thorough, compassionate, and very knowledgeable in orthopedics. Has suggestions for me to help improve my pain even when there is no permanent fix. I would highly, highly recommend him
Dr.Pokorney was very professional and friendly. He took the time to answer all of my questions.
Dr. Pokorney replaced my knee, and I was totally in awe at how great a surgery he performed. I'm about 5 full weeks out from surgery and my knee is feeling wonderful. I also want to thank his NP Daniel for the checkup and the PT folks for getting me back to normal so quickly.
Dr. Pokorney was fantastic from day #1. I'm very grateful for his treatment and care. My final appointment was last Thursday. I'm only sorry I waited so long to check my situation out. I recommend Dr. Pokorney for any joint issues. Sincerely, Margaret Baker
Fantastic surgeon, great follow up, always takes the time to answer any questions one may have. If you need an Orthopedic Surgeon, Ryan is my recommendation, he is the best.
I had a good experience with the doctor. I look forward to seeing him again
My appointment was handled quickly and professionally at every level thank you
Thorough and detailed. We left with a year plan of care.
Ora, very nice place. Dr. Pokorney was very nice and caring.
Doctor was very down to earth. Making sure what exactly the problem is before making a plan of what to do.
I am very confident in the work that Dr. Pokorney does! He is a very good listener and respects your wishes!!
Excellent Dr . Very knowledgeable. Compassionate, kind listener. Willing to look outside of the box
Dr was very professional, knowledgeable, and explained things well
All is good
I have worked with Dan for several years. He is always very kind, personable and “knows his stuff” when it comes to my knee injections. Of course it’s not a painless process but Dan has a sensitive touch and keeps talking to tell me to breath and takes my mind off the procedure! ORA, Dan and Dr. Pokorney are truly great assets to your firm. Keep up the good work!
Such an amazing surgeon!! He did my hip replacement. I would highly recommend him to anyone!!
Dr P got me in right away to start the process of knee replacements. He came highly recommended and I now know why. He explained everything plus some. I can't wait to have new knees.
Always good!!!!
Excellent
That was the best medical visit I've had for my knees in 5 years. I have been walking on cloud 9 since my visit. I had my A-1 C checked today and it's at 5.7. Yippee!!
I went in for hip pain and saw Dr. pokorney was very nice and explained things to me and answered my questions looking forward to hip replacement surgery
Very helpful
Staff and Dr. Pokorney put you at ease and explain everything clearly.
Very professional and nice. Very detailed in his explanation. He added different information that other doctors did not mention. Didn't seem to want to look at my list of 5 years of pain and how often my hip went out. He did however make a copy and put it in my file. Very happy with my pain level now that I received a cortisone shot.
I had total knee replacement surgery. Dr Pokerney was my surgeon. He was very responsive to my questions and my surgery went great. He recommended using the RomTech which made my healing process going more quickly. I highly recommend him
Everyone was polite and office very clean
Awesome work and caring great job done
I was very apprehensive to have surgery. I found out I needed a hip replacement. Dr. Pokorney was highly recommended to me by physical therapists both at clinics and the hospital. These are the people who see the surgeons work. When I met Dr. Pokorney, I felt at ease about the surgery. Surgery and recovery went great and I walk normal again! ORA is a very professional and efficiently run business. Dr Pokorney is a great doctor and is very friendly as well. I highly recommend him.
Just had revision surgery on my total knee replacement. Dr. Pokorney provided fantastic care both before and after surgery. Saw me before and after surgery and made sure I understood the complete process and that I had plenty of time to ask questions and had everything answered before he left. His support staff was also unbelievable. Nothing was an imposition and answers were provided very timely. If you need knee surgery, you would be well advised to visit Dr. Pokorney and experience for yourself a feeling of total confidence in a positive medical and support outcome. Thank you Dr. Pokorney from the bottom of my heart!
Dr Pokorney is an excellent doctor. He explained the results of my bone scan in a way that I could understand. He gave me different options for treating my knee and decided to do surgery. I told him that I have tried everything else to get relief but I couldn’t get any relief. His staff was very nice as well!
Dr. Pokorney and his ORA staff were prepared, totally professional and very thorough in the medical opinion they presented. I value Dr. Pokorney's medical advice and judgment.
Dr Pokorney explained my bone scan and told me exactly what was going on with my knee. He gave me different options and together we chose the best option for me. His staff was very nice and helpful. I definitely would recommend Dr Pokorney to my family and friends.
Dr Pokorney and his team are amazing! Dr. Pardi is very thorough, pleasant and very knowledgeable and his PA Dan is also. Great place to have care.
I came into to see Dr. Pokorney for my right knee pain. He had replaced my left knee seven years ago and I was very pleased with outcome of it, so i decided if I need another replacement he would be the one. He was very pleasant and took time to explain things and to listen to me also. Very important. He gave me choices , not just 'surgery'. I went with trying another option and I am very pleased. Thank Dr Pokorney. Also thank you to his nursing staff. Definitely would and will recommend you.
ORA has multiple doctors with multiple specialists. This visit was for my knee. Dr Pokorney and staff were friendly and helpful.
I'm impressed with Dr. Pokorney at our visit. He went through images of my knee and pointed out the problem areas. Then he went on to explain what to expect at time and after knee replacement. I had the opportunity to talk with a friend, who had Dr.Pokorney perform a hip replacement. He said he was very pleased.
Dr. Pokorney explained my coming knee replacement surgery very thoroughly. He is very easy to talk to. I'm looking forward to getting my new knee soon.
Ora is very good I m so thankful.for Dr Pokorney. He did my left knee replacement. And also is going to do my right knee replacement in August. If u need orthopedic care please consider ora. I'm very happy with my results.
My first time meeting Dr. Pokorney and found him very personable, easy to talk to, and very informative.
The compassionate of Dr Pokorney and his entire staff is outstanding .The kindest concern and compassion they show is amazing .I was sent to him due to being high risk for surgery .I was beyond nervous being on a blood thinner during surgery .But they assured me everything would be fine .He is an outstanding surgeon that i would highly recommend .And his staff is amazing .Thank you for the wonderful care
The pleasant staff at ORA is one worth Raving about. They go above and beyond to help give people a good start after injury. If not thanks for these Angels, I wouldn’t be staring to walk again.
The staff at ORA is incredible. Thank you so much for your dedicated work. You make it look easy!
Dr Pokorney is one of the best. Not only in expertise but in professionalism and humanity. I had 5 surgeries in 3 years all under his care. I would highly recommend him
Dr Pokorney was wonderful, he explained everything then always asked me if I had questions and answered them thoroughly. Great staff, I was treated with kindness and top notch care. I had such a great experience that when my husband needed his knee replaced 6 weeks later Dr Pokorney was his choice too.
Awesome guy great Dr. does only what needs done nothing. Gives you options and gives you his honest opinion. We need more doctors like him.
Explained my knee problem, how to treat it and possible solutions very clearly. Friendly and caring. Highly recommend Dr. Pakorney
He is very personable and took time to make sure I understood my issue and the procedure to fix it.
He’s great at explaining your problems and is also good with communicating he’s also a good listener
Staff was everything I needed! You're a pillar in the medical organization at such a young age. Bravo on excellence!
First time I met him. Appreciated his experience and straightforwardness and answered all my questions. I left with complete confidence that he will handle my hip replacement superbly.
I brought a list of questions to my pre-op appointment with Dr Pokorney, and he took the time to answer each one of them. I felt confident about Dr Pokorney and more at ease about my upcoming surgery.
Dr Pakorney and his team at Ora are very professional and explain everything step by step. If you need knee surgery or have questions Dr Pakorney is a very good surgeon at ORA. His team is very knowledgeable and helpful. Thank you for everything you did for me. Teresa Hand
We appreciate so much your skill and concern during knee surgery and folloup for Bill. On a par with Mayo and much closer to home! Bill and Ann Deisher
Very satisfied with my talk and plan with Dr. Pokorney. I was concerned about the healing process especially since I only have my right arm to walk with a walker or cane, Dr Pokorney put me at ease and was confident I would be able to move around after the surgery.
Everyone was very professional, thorough and friendly. Answered all our questions and we couldn’t ask for more.
Dr Pokorney very easy to talk to. Knowledgeable and listened to me as a patient so he could understand why I was there and what I needed. Very easygoing, I will definitely see him again when needing care from ORA.
Very appreciative that Dr. Pokorney took the time to sit down and evaluate my situation and come up with some new approaches. Very kind man!!
Dr.Pokorney was super. I recently met him for the first time. I am feeling very confident in our discussion regarding my upcoming procedure on my hip. We discussed the operation and he answered all my questions. I want to thank him and his team for welcoming me. Sincerely, Margaret Baker
If you’re looking for someone who listens to you, answers your questions and makes you part of the decision team, you want this guy. I was pleasantly surprised that he did all three since most doctors I’ve seen didn’t.
He discussed my xrays and was very helpful with a knee brace.
I’ve been coming to the OR now for quite some time, and I never had a problem with them. Front desk is very professional and Dr. Pokorney is very Good at what he does. I had a total knee replacement without any complications. So I am giving the ORA score of five… A big thanks to all.
Wonderful Doctors and staff,very caring.
So I had my surgery today, full hip replacement, it was completed around 11:00 this morning. Dr. Pokorney and his staff at ORA and at Trinity Point in Bettendorf are amazing. Professional, friendly, every last one of them. Thank you. 7 hours after surgery and I'm at home enjoying myself, pain free, for the first time in 4 or 5 years. I can't even begin to express my appreciation for what they have done for me. Also, if you're on the fence about the game ready ice machine, just get it. Only downside for me was my insurance. They won't pay for it. Cost is around $170.00 fot 10 days. Well worth it IMO.
Very pleasant and knowledgeable doctors and the wait was not very long at all. All of the staff there are so nice!
I couldn't be happier with my surgery. Everything went smoothly and professionally. I am now fully recovered and back to normal. Thanks to Dr Pokorney and his staff, as well as all the staff at Genesis East Hospital in Davenport. Thanks also to Rock Valley Physical Therapy in Camanche Iowa for all their help.
It couldn't have been any better, I can't possibly thank him enough for the care and experience that helped me through this surgery with no problems. The people there at ora are pure professionals.
Dr. Pokorney is empathetic and easy to talk to. Thank you very much!
Very kind, thorough, and reassuring. I feel quite confident that I will be well cared for at my total knee replacement surgery! Now, 7weeks later post-op I am walking without a walker or cane. I am grateful. I think the key is to do the physical therapy as prescribed. Thank you, Dr Pokorney!
