Dr Ballard was wonderful from my initial consultation through all my follow up appointments. He explained every possible situation of all that was to be expected and thorough. I think he is wonderful and shows great compassion in his profession.

The Dr and staff are all exceptional. The experience, albeit not Disneyland was exceptional when you consider the the options. I highly recommend Dr Ballard and ROC to all of my worn out family and friends.

The results have been excellent and my recovery has been faster than expected. The class at Meridian Hospital was extremely informative and made me comfortable going into surgery.

Dr. BALLARD LISTENED TO MY ALLERGY CONCERNS BEFORE MY SURGERY. MY OVERALL CARE WAS EXCELLENT - GREAT TEAM.

From the moment I met Dr. Ballard, I knew I was in the best hands. My hip was completely disconnected from my pelvis, and he knew exactly what he needed to do to fix the problem. My results have been no less than phenomenal!!! I am finally walking, pain free, and without a cane, for the first time in months!!! I will always consider Dr. Ballard my hero. He handed me a future when I had none.

Dr Ballard is awesome! I am recommending him to everyone in my church who has hip or knee issues. He is warm and welcoming, unrushed and inspires confidence. I am looking forward to returning to the tango floor(already back to teaching ballroom at my church three weeks after surgery.) Amazing. Thank you!

Best experience I have ever had regarding a Provider, clinic and clinical staff. They really put the patient and their needs first. I highly recommend Dr. Ballard and ROC Orthopedic Clinic. They are top notch in my book. My knee surgery was the. Best thing I ever did.

It is like a miracle! I can walk without pain, feel strong and supported by my knee when gardening, and do not worry about falling when coming down the stairs.

The procedure went very well was the best thing I have done for myself no more pain healed faster than I expected the staff is fantastic.

It was a pleasure working with Dr. Ballard and his clinic. Having knee surgery was a life changer. The pain and loss of motion in my knee was preventing me from doing what I loved, showing dogs. I had done obedience, agility and tracking but my knee was so bad I could barely walk straight let alone run. Since knee surgery I was able to enjoy working with my dogs again and look forward to training my new puppy in agility. Thank-you.

By two weeks after surgery I did not notice any problems related to the right hip. No pain or range of motion problems. Most of recovery was related to regaining strength lost due surgery and my inactivity.

Extremely professional, very personable, excellent bedside manner, extremely knowledgeable, on my team, I could go on.

Friendly, informative, approachable, professional -- and he drove into the hospital on his motorcycle in a snowstorm when I needed a revision. I am so happy with my experience AND with his work.

Dr. Ballard has been exceptional in explaining the procedure and what to expect from hip replacement surgery.
