This is an INJECTION clinic. It is NOT a pain management clinic. And I would not recommend…read more 1) Lady at front desk was not helpful, Dr was VERY much unhelpful in helping/aiding, severe, pain relief- or any pain relief. And the office had NO AC on a 90° day. 2) I came to him at referral of my primary and he basically didn't listen to what I said. I said I HAD an orthopedic dr & a neurologist- he told me I needed to get them... 3) I came in for chronic pain and medication management bc my primary care doctor is in the group of drs afraid to give their patients what they need( non-narcotic or narcotic!) and this dr, while nice enough, was basically telling me to see multiple specialists who will in turn send me BACK to pain management! 4) As well as the "school of thought" that WOMEN just need to take an antidepressant and then EVERYTHING will be magically better- ya, ummmm NO! I am about to undergo a third hip surgery in a year- this one a full replacement due to a car accident so I'm pretty F'ing sure an antidepressant won't do shid to help. I am in serious, constant, pain and have done what I am SUPPOSED to do- seen my drs regularly, seen the specialists they want and have the extensive imaging/tests they want and am just wasting my time, money on Lyfts and insurance company $. It's unfortunate that this "pain management" office was unwilling to help because of multiple medical issues, despite my seeing specialists who could cover those, and they stick to the managing the pain!!!!!

I am a current patient of Dr. B's, and he is one of a kind. My first visit, I walked in and I told…read morehim all of my symptoms, and right away he gave me the diagnosis. I have never had a doctor be so assertive right away and also be so right. I used to work in health care, and I can be a very non-compliant patient, but I had also done my homework and had gone to every other specialty before my PCP sent me to Dr. B. Once he told me my diagnosis, it was like I could breathe again. Also, I have been SUPER compliant with my medications, and there is a noticeable difference from day one, and I'm not pain-free, but I am not writhing in pain either, so progress is progress! I'd also like to mention his staff- Vivian and Eli, who are his front desk/billing and medical technician, respectively. They are so kind and respectful and are always willing to listen and answer any questions that I may have. I am thankful to have them all as I learn to live with this new diagnosis, as this is something that I will have to control since it doesn't have a cure. Thank you for being so wonderful, Dr. B! 10/10, truly recommend!!

I've had bilateral hip labrum reconstructions and osteoplasty with Dr. Ochiai, 2 years apart. I…read moredrove about 75-90 minutes to see him and it was well worth the drive and the tolls! My symptoms had been blamed on pulled muscle and other things for years, so by the time I got the right diagnosis, my hip was not in great shape. He explained my options thoroughly, risks/benefits of surgery, etc, and I never felt rushed. On followbut, I had biceps tendonitis, and he fit me in for a steroid injection, no problem. Both surgeries went well. My left did better, but it was done earlier, and honestly, I followed instructions better. I was able to run and do the things I wanted again. I was always able to get an appointment with him in a timely fashion. Sometimes, there may be a wait, but I would rather have a doctor who doesn't rush through your appointment than one on time.

I have been struggling with a torn labrum and FAI for almost four years. I tried multiple cycles…read moreof physical therapy and really, really worked hard to avoid surgery because I was frankly afraid of the recovery. I saw three separate hip surgeons, and came to Ochiai after numerous recommendations from others. I've talked to no fewer than 20 people that have had hip arthroscopy with various surgeons. I've spoken with people that have had horrific experiences with recovery and results from the same procedure that I have. I have also talked to some who urged me to have the procedure because it improved their quality of life dramatically. Here is what I will tell you: your surgeon's experience and skill matter. Choose a surgeon that specializes in the procedure you need and commit to the physical therapy. I am absolutely convinced that Ochiai has a great deal to do with what I am going to characterize as a relatively easy recovery. I would recommend him without reservation for hip arthroscopy. I'm now three weeks after surgery and here is what I will tell you: -The procedure was far easier than I anticipated in many ways, and more difficult in others. The upshot is surgery was worth it and I wish I hadn't waited. I'm frankly stunned at how reasonable my recovery was. - I was not really in pain following surgery, just discomfort for a few days. I was off narcotics within 24 hours after surgery. I believe I took two narcotic pain pills after leaving the surgical center. - The worst things to anticipate about this surgery are 1) needing to have someone to help you out for the 48 hours or so afterward, 2) understanding that you will have to commit to wearing a brace for about 6 weeks afterward and to be on crutches for approximately 1-4 weeks after, and 3) understanding PT is a commitment for months after. - I live in a house with lots and lots of stairs. They were no problem. If you have a symptomatic torn labrum or pinching from FAI then I urge you to see Ochiai.

I have been meaning to thank Dr Petersen for a while now, and write a review. This is my story: In…read moreJuly 2020, i was riding a capitol bikeshare down 23rd street in Arlington VA near my house. I ride that bike almost daily to go to my gym a mile up/downhill. I started loving biking and hills especially climbing up and coasting down. On a particular day, on my smooth coast down 23rd street, i pressed on brake lightly as i usually did, and the brake suddenly locked. My body went flying in the air at a 45 degree angle, i think i did a roll because i was intuiviey trying to save my head, i landed directly on my right elbow and ribcage. at that moment, i actually thought i was perhaps dead or unconcious. A nice young man, got off his bike and called 911. The ambualce came and to me to VA hospitial center. I thought I broke ribs but nope i compeltely shattered my right elow, open compound fracture. I stayed overnight and was put on meds, they told me i needed surgery first thing. I have never been in surgery. I was ready to die. I thought i might. I prayed and went into the O.R., I saw Dr Peterson under the mask and i asked him If I had a choice, he basically said not much if i ever wanted to get my elbow back working. Long story short, I woke up and had a new screw in my elbow. My parents took me home to NJ where I was not allowed to do much for 6 weeks and the slowly started PT at Inova in Arlington. I called Dr Petersen several times overnight, in pain, scared to death. Once the bone healed, he encouraged me to keep trying to used it, to go to PT and ordered me a dynaplint to help get my rage of motion back. For almost 2.5 months i could not brush my hair, teeth, or eat with my right arm, Over time, slowly I got my fork closer and closer to my mouth each week. By the time of my birthday, sept 16th, i went to dinner with friends and (yes see my current yelp photo), that is me getting my fork to my mouth!!! I was very elated to do push ups again by october and played tennis by spring 2021. Its now FEb 2022, and my elbow has almost full range with pin inside. I might eventually have to get it removed depending on pain and if there might be future setbacks. But for now, I am grateful i can bend and extend and not be in pain. In sum, a year and half later, I just am grateful also for the guy who called 911, the ER staff and Dr Petersen who worked with skill and care, to recover my elbow, it was the scariest day of my life, but I am healing well. Thank you Dr Petersen and Orthovirgina team:)

I cannot speak to other surgeons, but I can about Dr. Kader…read more Do not use Dr. Kader as your surgeon. Though I was recommended a different surgeon, Dr. Murry, I went with Kader to get the surgery done before the 2016 year was out. I paid for that mistake. Kader made no major slipups, but in doing the C5-C6 fusion he ended up tightening the spaces around the foramina, the places where the nerves traveling to the arms and back exit the spine - even though I had told Kader that I was an active amateur musician, and that playing was a big part of my life. Within two weeks after the surgery I started noticing symptoms down my arms and into my hands that were not there before the surgery. Except for brief periods, they did not go away, and slowly grew worse and worse. Kader refused to see any problem and only told me to take more drugs - even a year and a half after the surgery. Finally, my pain doctor recommended Dr, Ellegala of Sonospine. Three months ago he opened up the spaces that Kader closed, and my hands already feel stronger and more dexterous than they have in years. Ellagala's surgery technique isn't covered by insurance, and I had to pay $30K, but he fixed Kader's bungle, so it was worth it. But I'd rather not have had to pay it in the first place. When you pick a surgeon, you want someone who is committed to doing the best he or she can for you. Abraham Kader is not that surgeon, so he is not the surgeon you want. Go with Murry if you can.
