My husband had back surgery in 2018 by a neurosurgeon here in Kalamazoo. That surgery needed to be…read moreredone within 2 months. Being naive about back surgeries we thought my husband was getting the best care he could. After the 2nd surgery failed miserably a friend suggested that we see Dr. Nicholas Shroeder at OSOC. Within minutes of meeting with us he explained clearly why the first two surgeries had failed. By this point my husband is in constant pain and can no longer stand up straight. Dr. Shroeder explained what he felt the best course of action was going to be for Tom's situation. Dr. Shroeder had the new pieces needed for Tom's back made specifically for him in France. The previous neurosurgeon had just grabbed any rods and screws within reach. That was what kept Tom from standing upright. The picture on the right shows the neurosurgeon placed straight rods in his back. Losing the natural curve is what kept him from ever standing straight and in excruciating pain. The picture on the left is what was needed to give Tom the ability to walk and have a good quality of life again. This shows the difference between an excellent surgeon and one who should never be allowed to practice medicine again. The day of the surgery was a very long one. Dr Shroeder performed the 14 hour surgery to correct the neurosurgeon's mess. He actually had to rebuild Tom's back vertebrae by vertebrae. There were a few appointments before the surgery and a few during the next year. It is a 3 hour drive each way for appointments/surgery. Both my husband and I feel that the drive back and forth saved his life. I do not say that lightly. It's been 6 years since his surgery at OSOC and we are so grateful to Dr. Shroeder and his wonderful staff, especially Liz. Their knowledge, patience, compassion and kindness is so appreciated.

He did my full right knee replacement 8 years ago and a full left knee replacement almost one year ago. Both surgeries were a great sucess with a speedy recovery. Dr. Kassab and his team are on top of the latest science and technology. They have their own Physical Therapist who are wonderful to work with, so friendly, encouraging, and knowledgeable. The physical therapists are in direct contact with Dr. Kassab so they are able to track and report your progress. Very highly recommended! Leanne Oxford, MI

Which is made better by the fact that in many cases this was after getting very poor service in other places When you're helping someone in pain you begin to notice certain things about the facilities. There is an entrance area where you can pull up and go in and get a wheelchair for someone who needs it which is very useful when you consider that sometimes down in the city that's not really a possibility I'm not really the biggest fan of the kind of herding section waiting area but I roll with that I have always seen great customer service here and there is a great effort to diagnose the problem and try to create a course of treatment that will actually solve the problem I think this is a great place and I think if you have any kind of orthopedic issues you do not need to go out of town go here!!!

At the same time he broke his ankle so severely that his foot laid completely off to one side and his bone was sticking out where his foot should have been. That night in the emergency room they told me that my husband would most likely lose the leg. Thank goodness they had Dr Borden on call. Surprisingly the knee was the most complicated fix. Eight or nine surgeries on that and three on the ankle later, despite a shredded tendon and a massive infection that developed, Brian managed to not only save my husband's leg, it is entirely functional and he only walks with a slight limp. He is simply a genius and I am so grateful to him. One of the things I like best about Dr Borden is his bedside manner. He is direct and strraightforward. He does not sugarcoat anything but he does not take away hope either. He is innovative and does everything he can to treat the injury in a manner that will result best for the patient. He made sure to keep us both fully informed and I really trusted him because of it. Recently when my mom dealt with a bad shoulder that did not respond to treatment she did not hesitate and went straight to Dr Borden He got better x rays done and gave her a clear and more accurate diagnosis, discovering her shoulder was not impingement or a rotator cuff problem at all but rather a frozen shoulder. I recommend him to everyone I know.
