Dr Calcei is the most wonderful doctor I've ever worked with. He is obviously a skilled surgeon but more importantly he's a compassionate, caring human being. As a high school athlete dealing with two major injuries I would not be where I am today without him. He has helped me heal and grow and understands my drive to return playing football and baseball my senior year. He's the best.

Honestly, this was my first time seeing Dr. Calcei, However, I have never in my life been more impressed by a physician! He took lots of time to sit with me, never looked at his watch, or the clock on the wall Explained everything in thorough details gave me all the options & was very kind!!! So Glad I made the switch to UH!!!

I was referred to Dr. Calcei for an unexpected injury requiring surgery. Being a health care provider myself it is important to me that the physician and staff connect with me. I could not have asked for a better experience from start to finish. I would definitely refer anyone that is in need of an orthopedist that cares for and is excellent at his profession to Dr. Calcei. I am 100% satisfied with his staff (*** You are awesome), surgery center and his care of me! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Dr. Calcei was recommended by another physician for my injury and I'm glad to have had the opportunity to work with him to repair my hamstring. Dr. Calcei and his team are approachable and willing to explain everything in easy to understand language. They return calls and address concerns in a timely fashion as well as getting you in to see him for follow-up appointments. He is a wonderful doctor and surgeon and I will be recommending him to family and returning to him for additional treatment if needed.

Industry Relationships

University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.

UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
