Patient Reviews
This was my first visit with Dr. Hussain. I was so impressed with his friendliness. He listened to my concerns, discussed in detail my x-rays then a plan to help me improve.
Professional and good providers of information
I always am quite satisfied with the care and thorough evaluation I receive at ORA. If I would have one small complaint it would be the wait time it takes to be seen, even with an appointment the waiting is always there. I do realize how busy everyone there is so I never get too upset as I look around at all the patients.
Very compassionate and listens
Was very easy to talk to about my problems with and answered all my questions in professional manner. Fix my problem for now.
Very knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. He explained all my options clearly and in detail. He has performed 2 TKR on my husband in the past and is an extremely skilled surgeon.
Doctor Hussain and his office were very professional and respectful. They listened to my daughter (the patient) and my concerns about her pain level and explained everything thoroughly to our understanding. If you happen to need an ORA office Bettendorf is the place to go.
I have seen Dr. Waqas Hussain twice now. He took the time to explain to me what my x-rays showed and what the next steps were that we needed to take. I would highly recommend Dr. Hussain.
Dr Hussain was very competent & thorough. He answered all my questions & was very helpful.
I had my knee replaced last November by Dr Hussain. He was so caring, proactive before surgery and did a great job. I am very glad I had the surgery and he was my surgeon and doctor.
Everyone staff member was so nice and helpful and Dr. Hussain was friendly and direct! Very happy I came here.
No nonsense. To the point. Knows what she is doing.
Good doc. No bs.
Fast service.Knowledgeable and friendly personal
I can’t say enough good things about doc. He’s just a super cool guy and really easy to talk to. He explains stuff in a way that actually makes sense, and he’s not pushy. I had a work injury messed up shoulder and went through a surgery with another doctor that didn’t work. After that, I got bounced around to a bunch of different places. When I found doc, he took my case and looked at everything real carefully. He found the real problem, did surgery, and got me back on track. After the surgery, I called his office for a refill and they got back to me in about an hour, that has never happened to me with any other doctor. His team is just as solid. Everyone there is on the ball and really caring. I knew the recovery was going to be long and tough but he warned me, and doc walked me through it. Thanks to him, I’m back to work able to provide for my family. I never thought I’d get back to where I was. He gave me a chance to keep supporting my family. I’m just really grateful.
I went in expecting to schedule surgery for a shoulder replacement. After discussing with Dr Hussein I opted for cortisone shots to postpone the inevitable. I am very pleased with the doctors skill at describing the options and anticipated outcomes. It is also such a pleasure to find he and his staff a very affable and patient group.
Quick and to the point in a very friendly manner. Gave options on what could help and gave a road map of what may have to come if treatments don't work.
Dr. Hussain is an awesome Dr. He listens, is easy to talk to, is through and helpful.
Dr. Hussain explains everything so well. Very caring doctor. He has replaced both of my knees and is keeping my hip moving.
My visit with Doc was good. He explained my procedure coming up thoroughly and made me feel at ease. Him and the staff were very friendly and my appt didn’t take long at all .
Very good Doctor! Highly recommend! Great person!
Dr. Suleman takes time to explain your situation and future care. He is kind and compassionate.
Dr Hussain is always very thorough & always easy to speak with. He has an attitude of compassion & I would highly recommend him.
Dr. Hussain was friendly and greeted me immediately when he walked in. He explained my problem in detail. Thank you for for helping me and guiding me on what I need to do!
The best
Dr Hussain took excellent care of me. I recommend ORA.
Dr. Hussein is professional and informative. He has performed multiple surgeries for myself and my Mother. I would recommend him for anyone needing orthopedic assistance.
I received instant answers upon my visit with Dr. Hussain. Very professional.
Exception experience. I felt listened to and I believe my needs were met. Highly recommend.
THE BEST, I HAVE HAD 3 SURGERIES WITH HIM, NO PROBLEMS HEALED FAST AND CAN'T EVEN TELL THEIR WAS A SURGERY DONE ON THEM, 2 SHOULDERS, 1 KNEE, WILL ALWAYS USE HIM
I had two meetings with Dr. Hussain and was not only impressed with his professionalism but his candor regarding my knee issue. He was very articulate when explaining knee replacement and the procedures to be provided.
An excellent asset to this practice very nice listens to concerns answers questions very good bedside manner and very professional highly recommend to anyone who needs to be seen for knee or ankle
So I think it's a little early to judge the outcome at this point. We will see how good it went in a few months
Dr. Hussain is awesome! Had a 7 :50 appointment, was seen T 7:51, awesome everyone!
Good service fast and affordable
My right hip and right shoulder was so bad I could not sleep. Walking was a challenge with the hip. Today I can walk and my shoulder is much better. If I was at the clinic today I would give Dr. Hussain a huge hug (if allowed) and a big thank you. 🤗
I have been a patient at ORA for knee issues for several years. REcently I started working with Dr. Hussain and I really like and trust him to provide the best care and advice.
Everyone is very nice. I didn't have to wait pass my appointment time.
He was so personable and explained everything really well. A great doctor and I would recommend him to anyone!!
Dr Hussain was thorough in his explanation of my condition and the procedure to correct it. He let me choose when I’d have the surgery based on my tolerance of my discomfort. The surgery went well and I got to come home that evening. He prescribed all the meds I’d need for the first couple of weeks , although thankfully, I didn’t need the pain meds for very long. Our follow ups were informative and encouraging. If anyone needs shoulder surgery, I wholeheartedly recommend Dr Hussain!
Dr. Hussain printed out a copy of my MRI and explained everything to me and went over possible treatments.
Dr. Hussain has been thorough, honest, and has always had an excellent “bedside manner” with me as his patient. I had a hard recovery in the initial days after surgery but was supported by the ORA nurses I spoke with and by Dr. Hussein who has never made me feel embarrassed or judged when I’m not at my best. I recently visited after a fall, within a year after a biceps repair. He gave me options and let me decide which of the available options was best for me. He also prescribes medications to holistically target the multiple systems in the body that affect how we perceive pain after an injury. I’ve never needed narcotics or even heavy pain medications because of this, aside from immediately after surgery. I realize it everyone’s situation is the same as mine but it’s with getting at least one opinion from Dr. Hussein in my opinion.
Dr. Hussain was very personal. He answered all my questions about my treatment of my right shoulder. I highly recommend him to anyone who needs help. I previously had him put in a new left shoulder two years ago. Great results
Very friendly, professional and knowledgeable! Always gives best advice and treatment for best optimal outcomes! He is great!!
Dr & staff prompt, listened to my concerns, explained treatment , provided treatment as needed
Doctor Hussain has a terrific manner and is very knowledgeable. I really enjoyed my appointment with him. He was fantastic at clearly discussing my situation and all the possible treatment opportunities. I would very much recommend him to anyone.
Very prompt call into examination room. Immediately he advised me the embolism in my lower legs were very serious. He recommended I contact my cardiologist without delay! It turns out that it was a very important thing I do. I was checked into the hospital the following day actually the day that I contacted my cardiologist and they immediately took action to reduce my swelling. They set up an IV to be administered every three hours with 2 mg of Lasix. In the first day, I lost 7 pounds of water weight all due to recognize swelling in my lower extremities Dr. Hussain recognized. On the second day an additional 4 pounds of water weight was eliminated. Dr. Hussein was instrumental and getting me the help I needed promptly , and When I was admitted to the hospital by my cardiologist, the team stepped up and started administering an IV which included 2 mg of Lasix three times a day
I had not seen Dr. Hussein for a couple years. He had worked on my knees before with some injections, yet he remembered who I was, and asked about my legs. What a nice man -I’ve always admired him and I’m so glad I was able to get into see him. I know I’m in good hands with him, working on my fingers and hands, and he is a true, professional, efficient, knowledgeable, and kind. We are lucky to have him in the quad cities.
When entering your office it was extremely noisy. Never quieted. Bad review of your office personnel.
Dr Hussain used xrays to illustrate the lack of cartilage in my knee which was causing alot of pain. He was straight forward in telling me the robotic approach would not be the best means to replace my knee and to account for my bow leg but that better results would be obtained through use of custom made wearing surfaces installed with manual surgery. The doctor described all of this in everyday English so there were no misunderstandings so I am looking forward to this surgery. Thanks Doc!
Got us in quickly for a complicated case
Very informative and listened to my concerns. Would recommend to anyone l.
Dr Hussain is incredible! I couldn’t have even Imagined my nearly miraculous improvement. Thank you!!!
I have been seeing Dr Hussain for the past 3 years. He did my knee and reverse shoulder replacement. Dr Hussain has always been realistic and compassionate. He speaks to you in a way that is easily understood, taking the time to answer any of your questions.
Dr Suleman Hussain is the Best!! That is my PSA, for today!
I found Dr. Hussain to be very compassionate, understanding and explained everything in full detail. He answered all my concerns. I would recommend Dr. Hussain to friends. I also found the staff to be extremely friendly.
Dr. Husain is great. He’s personable, thorough, and informative.
Dr. Hussain has done multiple surgeries for my family, some very intensive and they have always gone very smoothly. He's very personable as well. One final note: all of the orthopedic care I've received from other professionals have all said the same thing, Dr. Hussain is good at what he does.
Very easy to follow instructions. Dr. Husain has a pleasant demeanor and easy to talk to. I would recommend him to anyone who needs his expertise.
Seemed concerned about my condition, explained the X-ray and offered next step solutions.
He did surgery to my left bicep and its fine I wished he did my right shoulder I probably wouldn't be going through the problems I'm struggling with now
Dr. Suleman Hussain is an excellent Orthopedic doctor. I really appreciated his skill and expertise in the surgical procedure he performed on my shoulder. I'm looking forward as expected to a complete recovery. It was obvious that he is determined to provide the best healthcare available for his patients.
He listens to what you need. Does what he needs to get you back to work fast great doctor. Great attitude. I always try to get appointments with him
Dr. Hussain and his team were a blessing from beginning to my release last Friday. Every question, every worry was answered promptly. Made me feel part of the team. I thank everyone involved. Every step I take, I thank you, Dr. H.

Dr. Hussain has repaired both of my rotator cuffs. One was major. He has done a fantastic job. The most important part is the result of my surgery. Can not ask for anything better then 'back to normal'. Above and beyond the surgery results is the fact the Dr. Hussain is personable, answers my many questions, and if truly concerned about the results and my happiness. I highly recommend Dr Hussain.
Dr Hussain is the best surgeon that we have dealt with I would trust him with my life ! He's professional and cares about his patients outcome thankyou for the 2 new shoulders 😀
Went in because of a bum knee. Got it drained and a shot. It is much better the next day Dr Hussain was great spent time explaining the procedure. Staff was great as well. Thank you for helping me.
The Best in the Business
I was very pleased to get an appointment so quickly. I'm also pleased that he was able to help fix the problem. I look forward to using him as a primary dr relating to any further shoulder issues...

Dr. Suleman Hussain is very caring and has a great memory when it comes to his previous patients. He makes me very comfortable with his diagnosis and gives me all the information I need to make good decisions on how to proceeds.
I had a cortisone injecton and he did an excellent job! I felt no pain. I went from hardly walking without excruciating pain to walking normal without pain. He also did a knee replacement 6 yrs ago and did a very good job. Very friendly and listens to you.
Very personal. Quick to assess and come up with the next step. Would definitely go to again with any issue
It is a great facility all of the therapist are great nurses also and Doctor Hussain is a hell of a surgeon I fractured my femur in six places and he mended that all back together it took me 7 months to get back to walking and getting released to get back to work but I was so grateful that he was the one that done the surgery hell of a guy
The silvis location has been great. I feel cared for since transferring my care. Dr. W. Hussain has been overall amazing and the PA was great too. I appreciate the thorough explanation of the condition of my knee and what they did during surgery as well as explaining what recovery would look like. I have referred several people to this office and to Dr. Hussain.
I was very happy with the staff they were very courteous
He was thorough and explained everything he saw in the x-rays. He also explained the next steps based on what he believed was wrong and was happy to have an MRI ordered to dog in deeper and find the full problem.
Excellent Dr he took care of me when I broke my wrist and now he is doing a knee replacement surgery for me I would highly recommend him
Suleman was very polite and addressed all of my concerns that I had.
He's nice he's understands how his patients feel he is a very good doctor I had him for my arm now I got them for my right shoulder and he's really understandable
Dr. Hussain is a great doctor. Thorough and pleasant.
Dr Hussain is the best he make sure his patients are well care for and he don't beet around the bush about diagnosis he did my total shoulder surgery and it turned out great now caring for my other shoulder which might need done . He's the one to do it
Everything went great, except for. I don’t think the nurse actually talks to the doctor to solve little problems. Like my disability forms
I really like this doctor , very good at was he does .. Nurses are great to
Was in & out quickly. X-ray tech was helpful & knew what he was doing. Dr was very pleasant and helpful. Great experience.
I've had several surgeries at ORA. Dr. Edward Connelly saved my lower right leg. He's by far one of my favorite surgeon's. Dr. Pyvich put rod's in my right forearm. It was painful, but it's 100%. Dr. Winston..has performed several surgerie's on my right hand. And saved my right middle finger. I was in California training horse's at a world famous horse farm. Dr. Winston had expressed his concerns about me working with horse's. But, I just couldn't say "No" to such a successful horse farm. I flew home to the QC that day. I had called Dr. Winston's nurse and explained my situation. Dr. Winston saw me the next morning. And I promised, "No more working with horse's.) And I have kept my promise. I have osteoporosis due to an autoimmune disease. I had to stop training and showing horse's. Horse's have always been the love's of my life. I broke my S1 & S2 in my back. While having a nightmare. I can't believe I did that. Then the break climbed up(due to an assault)to my Lumbar's. I was sent to Dr. M. Hussain. He told me that my lower back and the right and left side of my Pelvic bones looked like I'd been in a major car collision. I asked if I could do physical therapy in the pool, like Dr. Connelly started me in. Dr. M. Hussain was happy to refer me to where I wanted to go. I chose to go to their pool at ORA. I have a great PT named Grace. ORA is currently working with my Dr to give me a once a year bone infusion that will hopefully return my bone density. I might even get to return to my dreams of working with horse's again. I might choose to work with Miniature Horse's. Of course, this will totally be the surgeon's decision. I will do as I am told. I trust my surgeon's at ORA. I feel like I have another chance to turn my dreams into realities. Thanks to the ORA team. I'd also like to mention, the staff is very friendly and helpful at ORA. Thank You Very Much, Lisa Gordon.
Dr Hussain explains everything- making sure you understand the plan of care.
Dr. Hussein. was amazing. I was seen for shoulder pain. He was very attentive and actually listened to what I had to say. He was compassionate while explaining what he felt our best course of action was. It was a wonderful experience and I trusted his opinion.
Dr. Hussain did a reverse shoulder replacement in late December. I expected much more pain and a longer recovery. March is here and I can brush my hair and put it in a ponytail. I can get my right arm on my head to shave my armpit. I haven't even started with weights yet I am glad I had this done. He was great. I hope I do not ever need the other side done but he would be my surgeon.
Dr Hussain is always so knowledgeable, thorough and kind with the most calming demeanor that makes the whole process much easier!
Excellent from checking in to getting in to see Dr Hussain to meeting with him and going over the plan for my hip. I feel very confident in Dr. Hussain’s expertise.
Dr. Husain is great! Very knowledgeable in his field, explaining everything you need to know. He has treated my rotator cuff as well as repaired my husband’s torn ACL. He’s not only a great medical professional and surgeon, but also has a friendly, outgoing personality.
Dr. Hussain has a very relaxing effect on patients. He explained my issues very well. Appreciated his time and expertise.
.
I highly recommend Dr. Suleman because he really takes his time to explain everything.
