About Me
My patient care philosophy is focused on providing high quality, evidence-based care. This requires taking time to understand each patient’s unique situation, challenges and goals.
My specialty is orthopedic surgery, with a primary focus in hip preservation. I treat all types of hip conditions. My surgical expertise includes hip arthroscopy, hip osteotomies and hip replacement.
The most satisfying aspect of my job is meeting a patient who needs help, creating a personalized treatment plan and following through until full recovery is achieved. It’s incredibly rewarding to see our patients regain the ability to enjoy an active lifestyle.
I enjoy working at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center because it offers a warm, collegial environment, with continuous efforts to improve the quality of the care we provide and genuine compassion for those who need help.

Consulting and Related Relationships
At The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, we support a faculty member’s research and consulting in collaboration with medical device, research and/or drug companies because a faculty member’s expertise can guide important advancements in the practice of medicine and improve patient care. In order to provide effective management of these relationships, the University requires annual disclosures from all faculty members with external interests related to their University responsibilities.
As of 10/25/2021, Dr. Ryan has reported no relationships with companies or entities.
Dr. Ryan is incredibly compassionate. He actually cares about his patients and takes the time to listen. I was really impressed.
Always a pleasure
Dr Ryan is the only orthopedic surgeon to diagnose and treat my condition. I had seen two other physicians prior.
Very good
There were no bad experiences. Everyone listened abs explained!!!
Dr. Ryan is an excellent practitioner. He does a thorough exam, he listens, he explains things clearly. He is up there with the three or four best doctors I have seen in my adult life (60 + years old)
Seen to me like a robot
Dr. Ryan is a very good listener and addresses my questions and concerns. He has a pleasant and easy disposition and I feel comfortable in his care.
Dr John Ryan is the best and most thorough physician I have seen in my life. He explains things well and always takes time to answer your questions.
He's my fave.
He fixed one of my hips and did a great job.
I would not trust any other doc to the need with my hip & leg. He is a wonderful doctor. O.S.U. rocks.
I love dr ryan always takes his time to explain anything and offers multiple sugestions on how to fix it
Always great customer service!!
I was impressed immediately. Dr. Ryan took time to listen and patiently took note of my complaints. He made me feel heard.
Dr Ryan is a very knowledgeable and caring Dr. He is the best!
Dr Ryan shows care and concern for me always. He's never to busy. Always pleasant and professional. When my dog died I missed my appointment I messaged him and told him why. He was so sweet stating how sorry he was. Then when I had my visit he told me again. Dr Ryan has been my doctor for over 4 years. He's the kindest most special doctor I have ever been to.
Dr. Ryan is outstanding. He investigated my problem thoroughly; referred me as needed; explained the rationale for his decisions in great detail; and made me feel at ease with his care and concern.
Dr. Ryan is a wonderful & caring physician. He is always friendly & takes the time to review the X-ray results on the computer, asks how I have been & if there are any new concerns & also discusses the status of my prosthetic hip & my other hip (level of arthritis). I would recommend anyone to see Dr. Ryan if they are considering a hip replacement/evaluation. He is one of the few physicians with both great clinical skills & personality.
Would recommend Dr. Ryan to anyone. He is a fantastic surgeon.
The provider gave me a general exam, discussed the results of the x-rays and recommended some physical therapy.
Dr Ryan is such a kind gentleman. outstanding Dr
He looked at xrays and listened/asked questions about my thigh. Then explained very clearly what he thought was happening and what I should do going forward. I always know with Dr. Ryan that I will get very good advice and care.
Dr. Ryan has been very thorough and knowledgeable for several times I have seen him. I find him to be a very caring person who is on my team.
Always spends as much time as I need with me. Reviews my records and reason for visit before seeing me.
Dr. Ryan is wonderful. He is friendly, courteous, attentive and caring and professional. He answers questions and addresses any concerns that you might have. I would recommend him to anyone.
Everyone was courteous and seem to care about me.
Nice doctor! He made my constant pain go away!
Dr. Ryan is a wonderful physician!
Dr Ryan is very knowledgeable, caring and professional. I trust him.
Absolutely fantastic- Dr. Ryan is a surgeon that goes out of his way to explain everything, he is very respectful, has a great bedside manner and his surgical abilities are top notch! Best of all, he is a great person. I totally trust him. These comments are coming from an RN that was an ICU nurse for 17 years, 10 years in administration and public health. I've seen my share of physicians and other providers that I would never trust them for my care.
Very, very nice and explained my MRI and what my options were. I never felt rushed & he answered my questions.
good people good service
Dr. Ryan is the best doctor I've seen in my entire lifetime. He is caring, through & pleasant. He explains things well and never acts like he's to busy to answer question. I'm so fortunate to have him as my hip surgeon.
I felt like Dr. Ryan wasn't present at my appointment. That I was wasting his time. I had spent two years working very hard to deliver blood to my AVN Hip and he says "Why are you here?" I wanted to know if any more bone had grown. He just flashed the x-rays on the screen without zooming in for me to see anything. Two years ago he gave me hope, and told me that I had evidence of new bone growth, but time I received rejection. It was if I had overstepped the boundaries coming in for an evaluation during COVID-19.
Personable. Took time to explain.
easy to talk to
All good.
Very impressed with Dr. Ryan.
