Dr. Ochenjele is a gem of a doctor: knowledgeable, thoughtful, personable & considerate, not rushed; manipulated my legs & hips to confirm his tentative diagnosis; provided me with key structural and physiological information I needed to understand the dynamics of my pain; talked to me at my level of understanding (not up or down); provided me with treatment options and then let me make my own choices for what treatments to pursue. Two days subsequent to cortisone Injections In my hips, I had enormous pain relief. He also gave me Ideas for exercises I do at home to deter a return of pain. This appointment had me engaging just with Dr. Ochenjele, not nurses. Also I learned the results of my xray from my health record online, not from office staff.

I was extraordinarily impressed with the doctor. This was my first visit with him and he explained my condition more clearly than it had ever been explained before. I came away from my visit with a clear understanding of my condition. And very importantly, he was nice and displayed a care for my condition not always experienced in the past.

Dr. Ochenjele knew the reason for my visit, arranged for the necessary x-rays, Introduced me to his P. A. And student observer, and reviewed the steps we had already taken, and determined that surgery to remove the plate in my shoulder which is impinging the movement, is in order. He is a fine doctor and surgeon, and I trust him completely with my care.

Dr. Ochenjele was entirely unknown to me when we started. Normally I get advice from medical professional friends but a broken wrist did not allow for lengthy "doc shopping". He always listened attentively and took the time to explain what he was going to do and what to expect to me and separately to my son. I felt he was looking out for my best interests at all times. He was encouraging all along and I feel very lucky to have happened upon him. I have subsequently heard only excellent things about him from his former patients, other medical professionals, and his former neighbors. He is a gem; I would enthusiastically endorse him although I hope to not need his services again.

Industry Relationships

University Hospitals is committed to transparency in our interactions with industry partners, such as pharmaceutical, biotech, or medical device companies. At UH, we disclose practitioner and their family members’ ownership and intellectual property rights that are or in the process of being commercialized. In addition, we disclose payments to employed practitioners of $5,000 or more from companies with which the practitioners interact as part of their professional activities. These practitioner-industry relationships assist in developing new drugs, devices and therapies and in providing medical education aimed at improving quality of care and enhancing clinical outcomes. At the same time, UH understands that these relationships may create a conflict of interest. In providing this information, UH desires to assist patients in talking with their practitioners about industry relationships and how those relationships may impact their medical care.

UH practitioners seek advance approval for certain new industry relationships. In addition, practitioners report their industry relationships and activities, as well as those of their immediate family members, to the UH Office of Outside Interests annually. We review these reports and implement management plans, as appropriate, to address conflicts of interest that may arise in connection with medical research, clinical care and purchasing decisions.
