About Me
As an orthopedic surgeon, I specialize in sports medicine and hip preservation. I think our field is very special because we’re able to use a combination of conservative and surgical treatments to help a variety of individuals return to certain activities or achieve specific goals.
I believe that helping patients return to a desired level of activity can help improve their lives and overall health. When we personalize a patient’s goals and collaboratively craft successful treatment strategies, our team develops a strong personal connection with the patient. In accomplishing this, we help patients lead full and engaged lives.
I enjoy working at The Ohio State University because we have the unique opportunity to combine clinical practice, community outreach, academic research goals and teaching skills.
When I’m not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and inventing new adventures with them. We love being outdoors and enjoy being a part of our community.

Dr Vasileff is amazing! He listens to my concerns and values them and hears me. It's hard to find in a doctor these days. I appreciate his ability to hear my needs and concerns. He also did a same day injection which saved me an hour trip. Always thrilled by his bedside manner and professionalism.

Always good care.

I was surprised and thrilled that Dr Flanigan and Dr Vasileff worked together that day to help diagnose my issues and took the time to carefully explain their findings and answer my questions. My hisband (who was at the appt with me) were both so impressed with the care they provided.
Good information, listened and answered all questions
The Dr. Was very good at showing me my X-rays and letting me know how well my procedure had healed. He was good at the examination and answering all my questions.
He took an interest in me
Excellent
Dr. Vasileff and hi sintern were top notch. Caring and professional.
What I appreciated the most was that Dr. Vasileff listened carefully to my concerns about both my immediate need (hip pain) and about my serious chronic conditions (RA, FMD, Hypothyroidism) which impact my daily life. He was willing to work with me through a holistic lens to use non-surgical means to improve both my physical health and my well-being. The PT regimen has been helpful in reducing my daily pain levels, increasing my strength and giving me hope. I am grateful to have this physician, physical therapist and health care connection.
He was very clear, confident, kind and professional
Dr. Vasileff saved me from a life of pain. I was reluctant about surgery but his expertise and encouragement allowed me to be active again. I can never thank him enough.
Dr Vasileff and his team are amazing!
Always listened, tried all conservative measures first before surgery. Would highly recommend for hip issues. Was seeing another hip surgeon who dismissed my symptoms and made me feel like it was all in my head, it wasn't.
Dr. Vasileff always remembers me & my history & provides excellent care!
Highly skilled, very smart, and extremely personable. A great listener who is both thoughtful and caring. Nothing bad at all.
I felt like he rushed through the visit too quickly. I was referred to him but not sure it was necessary, more of an extra visit and I probably could have passed in his visit and just met with dr Ionesco directly.
Always polite, concerned and working to find a solution to my concerns. Always willing to explain the issues and the solutions options available
He is the BEST. When I came to him, I was a horrible mess. Hip replacement, then low back, then neck. Dr. Vasileff worked with Dr. Jonath Karnes to make my life WORTH LIVING, with HOPE.
All good
Excellent doctor, took time to explain post-surgical recovery process, and answered all questions thoroughly.
Very good all the time.
I appreciate the time that was given to listen to my concerns.
Excellent bedside manner. Provider even called me personally twice to discuss my medical results & concerns.
Great bedside manner. Explained everything thoroughly. Listened to my concerns and did a very thorough examination.
All was great!
Always on time, very knowledgemable, very friendly!
I have seen several about a problem. I think he might be the first to have a clue. We'll see.
Great
