Your trust is our top concern.

We strive to keep reviews honest, trustworthy, and fair.

Doctors can not pay for good reviews, nor can they pay to have negative reviews removed.

We monitor all reviews to ensure they comply with our guidelines and don’t include personal information, profanity, libel, defamation, harassment, obscenity or fraud.

Any reviews that are deemed fraudulent or violate our guidelines will be removed immediately.

All reviews are confirmed and audited before publication, and community members have the ability to flag inappropriate content for further review by our team.

Thank you!
Dr. Ferrel is an excellent surgeon. He’s funny, personable, and of course very professional. I would recommend him to anyone - I wish he were my primary! I’d like to also note that his staff was first class and want to say thank you for making me feel comfortable during this unfortunate circumstance.

BEST OF THE BEST!
In a world where 99% of doctors couldn't care less (and I know, because at 71 I've run the gamut of medical professionals, from A to Z), spend maybe 5 minutes with you, dismiss your concerns, and send you on your way with no resolution -- there is actually one who gives a .. fig! Dr. Ferrel took his time with me, is very personable and kind, honed in on the root of my problem, gave me valuable suggestions and advice, and gave me an injection that made the difference between using a cane and being relatively housebound -- to walking virtually pain-free again! I gave Dr. Ferrel 5 stars, but I would give him a hundred if I could! :)

Excellent job of my which my surgery.
I had a significant lumbar surgery from L1 to S1. I am still improving and recovering. He does more than any other of my friends’ surgeons. I am making a good recovery and expect to make a full recovery. Would recommend Dr. Ferrel to everyone.

Excellent surgeon
Dr Farrel did surgery on my lower back and did an outstanding job. I could hardly stand or walk prior to surgery, after outpatient surgery I left without pain or difficulty walking or standing. I would recommend Dr Farrel to both friends and family.

Maybe he’s good, maybe he’s not
If you could get a follow up appointment I could have an opportunity to judge. If I gotta judge now, it would be a failing grade because the 1st visit was blah, not good not bad. Steroid injection was a failure.

Neck issues
I was referred to Orthopedic ONE by my family physician. Dr. Ferrell was one of the best doctors I have ever seen. He listens, takes his time to explain things and gives you an honest opinion. He recommended we try PT first. I will definitely recommend him to family and friends. Thank you!!

Amazing Surgeon
Dr. Ferrel is absolutely amazing! I suffered back problems since 2019 and had two prior disc surgeries with another surgeon and still had horrible back and nerve pain. I chose to switch to Dr. Ferrel and was one of the best decisions I have ever made. I went to him in the Fall of 2021 with horrible pain worse than I ever had. I ended up in the ER and through bloodwork, they discovered I had a Spinal Staph Infection. I was in the hospital for 3 weeks and then 6 weeks of IV antibiotics at home. I knew I could not live my life in this pain and Dr. Ferrel and I made a mutual decision I had to get a back fusion on L5-S1. I love to work out and have a very active lifestyle and knew surgery was my only hope to get my life back. I had never felt so confident in a Doctor in my entire life! He helped me every step of the way and now I am 3 months out from surgery and pain-free! He is the most caring, compassionate doctor and I believe the best back surgeon in Columbus!

Dr. Ferrel is an exceptional doc. He explains everything very well, and keeps you informed with things at all times. I would highly recommend him for any spine problems. Orthopedic One is top of the line, from staff in the office to surgery center and beyond !

Dr Jason Ferrel performed a Laminectomy and opened up the space for a nerve root between the L3-L4 lumbar; I had been diagnosed as having severe spinal stenosis and a severely pinched nerve. Prior to surgery, it had become painful for me to sit or walk; often I would have to take muscle relaxers and NSAIDS for pain that sometimes reached the 9+ level. Several months of physical therapy and a spinal injection did not significantly improve my symptoms. Finally, I asked Dr Ferrel, “If you were me, would you get a Laminectomy?” Dr Ferrel replied, “Yes, I would!” It has been four months since my surgery and I no longer need to take any pain relievers! And I can sit and go for walks with my wife :) Jason, thanks for giving me back my life!!!

Dr. Ferrel just recently performed a spinal fusion on my L4 and L5 vertebrae to relieve pain from a herniated disc. Dr Ferrel is AWESOME, I VERY HIGHLY recommend him. The surgery was a wonderful success and I can now walk and stand again without being in severe pain. Dr Ferrell and all of his staff are very kind, courteous and professional.

He is the best! He took time to answer all questions and concerns honestly and sincerely. Dr. Ferrel took time to explain our mother's surgery and risks. He answered all the family's questions. He and his staff were very caring and competent. He gave very clear home instructions after the surgery. They don't come any better!

The most compassionate and gifted surgeon I have ever met. Such a gracious humble man. He has restored my life. I had an emergency L3-5 fusion and the surgery and recovery has went well. Dr Ferrel was completely open and honest in explaining every step of the surgery and recovery beforehand. Spent as much time with me as I neede. Never in a rush. Absolutely no complaints. Wish he had been practising at Ortho One earlier. Saw him at Mt Carmel East and Ortho One, Taylor Station Rd, Gahanna

Saw Dr Ferrel for the first time. Left feeling EXTREMELY impressed by him. Was very thorough in his exam, what he had asked for to be looked at textwise before my appointment, x rays right before I saw him, the questions he asked me during my appointment as well. We both talked about medication and surgery and I left few impressed that he felt the same as I did on medication-not pushing it. And honest about surgery as well-not pushing it as well. Completely used to the opposite!
