Biography
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.

Very friendly listened to my concerns
Good experience. Physician was very kind and knowledgeable about the previous surgery I had done.
Highly knowledgeable as well as personable
He was able to fit me in at the last minute, which I greatly appreciated having driven 3 hours to see another provider who couldn't help me. He took a great deal of time reviewing my case and explaining surgical procedure to me.
Dr. Vasileff has been great! He answers all of my questions, and explained my surgery and my recovery in a way I could understand. Dr. Vasileff has been a pleasure.
Dr. Vassilev is outstanding. He carefully explained my medical condition. He showed me two fews of my Xray, tested my range of mobility, and asked me to walk so he could observe. Very caring and thorough, he a answered all questions was kind and personable.
Excellent experience, as always.
