Patient Reviews
Very helpful staff. Great service.
Dr. Waqas Hussain is a wonderful, caring and competent surgeon. I had a total knee replacement and was up walking without aid from a cane within 2 weeks and minimal pain within 3 weeks
I love his personality. He makes you feel safe and is going to help you get well.
Had a total right knee replacement Aug 12th, with Dr. Waqas Hussain. Very happy with the surgery...Dr. Hussain is very professional, as well as very pleasant. Explained the operation, things to expect, and helped to make things very relaxed. I would recommend him, and ORA to anyone suffering, and needing a knee replacement.
I think Dr. Hussain is a great doctor. He seems very patient and listens to what you say. I would refer him to anyone.
Very pleasant Dr. Explained everything throughly. Very reassuring about the knee surgery.
Hussain is a wonderful doctor and pretty darn cute π
Everyone that we came in context with knew their job and were very good at it. From the gentleman and lady who took my splint off an on, to the nurse at Genesis. I donβt think I have ever had an IV put in where I wasnβt left with a bruise, not this time. I didnβt get sick from the anesthesia, which is definitely unusual. And Dr. Hussein was so kind to both my husband and I. Wholly a good experience, just one I wish I wouldnβt have had to have ! Lol
Awesome Dr. always a good experience with Dr. Hussain.
Dr. Was awesome and explained why I had so much pain and took care of it that day.
Dr. Hussain is very informative and helpful. He walked in with a smile on his face and was very friendly. His speech is very precise and easy to understand. I would recommend him to anyone with knee pain.
Dr hussain has been amazing in my treatment of osteoarthritis/joint replacement and shoulder surgeries after my pretty bad motorcycle accident , after the shoulder heals my other knee will be replaced along with some other things snd Iβll definitely keep Dr. Hussain for my orthopedic!
Very fast and to the point
Great at explaining condition of injury and recommended course of action.
Found our interactions to be insightful and direct, as well as personable. Definitely would recomend DR. Hussain to all my friends, as well as the clinic as a hole.
Great staff, and processed me through my visit quickly; very efficient!
I was seen very quickly. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The Doctor explained everything and asked if I had any questions. I appreciated the fact that I was able to talk with him about my experience.
Dr. Wages Hussain is a wonderful doctor. He has a great bed side manner and really listened to me and answered all my questions. He explained the knee replacement surgery, so much so that I couldnβt wait to have the surgery. I am highly recommending him. Thank you!
Dr. Hussain was exceptional! He explained things thoroughly. He was patient and listened to me. He didn't make me feel rushed. I was the center of his attention. I highly recommend him.
Dr Hussain is always very professional. He is always smiling and gentle.
Professional and provide first-class service.
Dr. Hussain greeted me courteously and shared his choices to get me back to better health.
I HIGHLY recommend Waqas Hussain. He performed rotator cuff and bicep surgery on my shoulder April 1st 2024. Everything seems to be healing well. He has been communicating with my physical therapist in Aledo and he even complimented him with the notes he's sent to him. Waqas Hussain is caring, compassionate and spends time with me. He doesn't rush me to get to the next patient. A huge plus. I'm thankful that he was my surgeon. Great experience thus far!
Explains conditions and options clearly. Dr. Hussain and his staff have cheerful personalities.
Couldn't ask for a more caring person. Explained all options. Made me feel comfortable with the decisions made.
Dr. Waqas Hussain is the best orthopedic doctor in the quad cities.
From my shoulder diagnosis until my return to work, I couldn't have asked for better care then I got from Waqas Hussain, M.D. He always took the time to answer all of my questions and full detail, and worked with me and my therapist during my recovery.
Absolutely love Dr W. Hussain. He is so kind & takes his time.
Very good experience from start to 6 weeks later. Everything went smoother than expected!
I have had 2 surgeries with Dr. Hussain and both were very successful. His bed side manner is so pleasant and he always listens to your concerns. He is really good at explaining things, and he always has a big smile on his face. Wonderful doctor and surgeon.
Thank you for the great services.
Doctor Hussain was very personable and explained what was going on with my knee. He also explained what treatment would be used going forward. A genuinely nice person.
very good
He is best .He take of the case as should.
Great doctor that helped with my knee problems
Dr: Waqas Hussain is an amazing and communicative doctor. We were able to see the doctor with little wait time. He took the time to answer my questions despite his busy schedule, and made sure I understood everything about my knee pain to relieve my worries. Great experience and would recommend!
I was able to get an appointment quickly. Doctor is very nice, makes you feel at ease not rushed.
Very professional. Great bedside manner. Explains all options and procedures tbouroughly. Extreemely highly recommended!
Dr Hussain is a great doctor. He did my total knee replacement and I am 7 months out and I'm pleased with the result. As i stated before. He is a very caring doctor.
Had a long wait but I usually donβt. The staff apologized several times. I understand unexpected things come up some days. Dr. Is always so nice, listens and comes up with a plan!
Great experience. Feeling better already. Was seen without a wait. Dr Hussain was kind, polite, and explained everything including possible surgery later. Everyone in the office was very nice & offered help with a wheelchair. The ONLY little complaint was the woman in imaging. She was rushing me, & didn't seem very compassionate about my disability & the excruciating pain I was in. I even began to cry. Other than that I'm very happy.
Dr Hussain is always friendly and is great at explaining results He includes your thoughts and concerns when making plan of care
When I first met Dr Hussain, I immediately trusted him. What a gentle confidant man he is! I could hardly wait til my surgery came up. It went slicker than a whistle. I don't remember much pain til I went to therapy. The doctor was just as kind at my follow up appointment. My other knee needs replacing but don't want to get it done. Don't have enough time in my life.
I was very pleased with staff as a new patient. I didnβt have to wait long and saw the doctor for my shoulder issues. Dr. Hussain is very knowledgeable and friendly, made the visit comfortable for me.
Amazing Doctor. Cares!!! And very thankful we have him in this area!
A very caring position took every precaution and my wife's entire health history and future treatments and consideration before he decided to treat her. His professionalism and kindness goes above and beyond thank you Brian Farrell
Dr. Waquas Hussain is one of the best doctors out there. Kind, compassionate, caring. Wonderful bedside manner!! I had an issue with one of the nurses at the hospital and told him about it. He let me know that he was going to call her supervisor and I later found out he also spoke to the President of the hospital. It's so nice knowing that he had my back and I can't thank him enough for that!! Dr. Hussain really cares for his patients and wants the best for them. He goes above and beyond the call of duty!! I'm very grateful I found him!!
BEST HIP & Knee doctor !! He has such Respect for you and your care !!! So easy to talk to he listens to you when u have concerns or questions! He is AMAZING !!
Dr. Hussain is amazing! I can't express how thankful to him for fixing my shoulder. The exceptional bedside manner he has is heartwarming.
Very professional, friendly and explained everything thoroughly.
Dr Hussain is an awesome doctor! He knows how to treat his patients with kindness, respect and compassion. He explains the X-rays in a way that makes total sense! He lets you what he recommends and lets you know if you need to come back. I was in and out of my appointment on time. The staff was very helpful too.
Dr Waqas Hussain is an absolutely awesome doctor who listens to me and shows me the X-rays and explains what the X-rays mean. He tells me what he recommends as far as treatment and he lets me know when to come back to see him. He is so nice and friendly and really cares about his patients. I would give him a 10 if I could!!
Taking great care of me after shoulder replacement. This was expected as this Doctor and facility are top notch ! The staff and Doctors go above and beyond to take care of all the people they provide services for .
Dr. Hussain was such a pleasant surprise. The office was VERY busy on the day of my first appointment and he was running significantly behind. I was brought back to get X-rays, before seeing the doctor. It was incredibly uncomfortable and the ladies were so compassionate and patient with me as I did my best to adjust and hold poses that caused a lot of pain. When I teared-up, they worked quickly and reassured me that they understood I was hurting and to just do what I could. When I finally was greeted by the doctor, I was honestly expecting him to rush in, tell me what his diagnosis was and then ask if I had questions before rushing back out. But that was not my experience AT ALL! He had such a calm, kind energy. He was genuine and apologetic about my wait. Seemed frustrated that he was so behind and that his patients were waiting. I told him I was kind of expecting that (from working for a specialist) and he assured me that it does NOT happen regularly there (YAY!). He sat down. He took time with me. He showed me what he saw on my X-rays and explained his diagnosis. He was gentle with me when I became upset but also did a great job letting me know βThis is where youβre at. It IS disappointing. Now here is my plan to help you stay active and enjoy life again.β He got me on a treatment plan and I am actually looking forward to my follow-up. I highly recommend Dr Hussain!
Thank you for relief of pain in my right knee. It has been effective. I would recommend you to any people I know for there orthopedic needs.
Great attitude pleasant. I feel comfortable talking with him. Gets issues dealt with asap.
