Dr. O is an amazing doctor. He is very thorough and explained everything in detail so that I understood what he was explaining. I was terribly nervous and he went above and beyond to be sure I was comfortable. *** his LPN, is also amazing. She returns all calls and e-mails very quickly and makes sure you understand all instructions.

This is the surgeon who operated on my husband when he fell and did extensive damage to himself. Now that I need a hip replacement, I would not want to go to any other hip surgeon. I feel very fortunate to know about this surgeon.

Dr. Ochenjele is a gem of a doctor: knowledgeable, thoughtful, personable & considerate, not rushed; manipulated my legs & hips to confirm his tentative diagnosis; provided me with key structural and physiological information I needed to understand the dynamics of my pain; talked to me at my level of understanding (not up or down); provided me with treatment options and then let me make my own choices for what treatments to pursue. Two days subsequent to cortisone Injections In my hips, I had enormous pain relief. He also gave me Ideas for exercises I do at home to deter a return of pain. This appointment had me engaging just with Dr. Ochenjele, not nurses. Also I learned the results of my xray from my health record online, not from office staff.

I was extraordinarily impressed with the doctor. This was my first visit with him and he explained my condition more clearly than it had ever been explained before. I came away from my visit with a clear understanding of my condition. And very importantly, he was nice and displayed a care for my condition not always experienced in the past.

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.
