Dr. Conrad is excellent! He is not only very knowledgeable, he made me feel like I mattered. I could not have gone to a better doctor. He gets a 10!

I dislike the check in process This is the only clinic I go to where I have to do additional check in even tho I check in at home. Plus having to get a wrist band All other clinics I go to allow me to just let them know I've arrived, sometimes answer a couple of Covid questions and I'm on my way The process at the Waube location is a frustrating waste of my time
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 6/16/2026
Overall, it was great. My only issue is that my Dr was 30 minutes late for my appointment.

Dr. Conrad and his staff have been wonderful through my 2 hip replacement surgeries in 2023 and 2025. Top notch team.

Dr. Conrad and his MA are fantastic. I would recommend them to anybody. I think they do a great job, very good at explaining everything, and really appreciate everything that they do.

This provider finally gave me the answers that I couldn't get out of the first provider that I was assigned to. Dr Conrad looked at the same set of X-rays from January and immediately diagnosed the problem and offered solutions. It was obvious to Dr Conrad what the issue was and finally after 6 months of waiting I am finally on the track for resolution.

My entire team was very professional, organized, and focused on my needs and concerns.

I have been so impressed with Dr. Conrad and his personal interactions with my husband and myself. He took time to look us in the eyes and explain everything while he was sitting and relaxed truly made us feel comfortable. So far, we have been very impressed with what he told us about our knee problems.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/25/2026
Dr.Conrad is an excellent listener and educator at the patients level. Answered questions until I understood what was needed.

Have yet to have surgery. That and the resulting follow up will have a big effect on my next opinion
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 5/18/2026
I'm glad that Bellin Health has such a great team to care for my hip replacement and related issues. OSMS did my original hip replacements. Bellin Health Orthopedics is now caring for me properly. This was lacking with my original/previous Orthopedic group.

I don't like having to register on line. I prefer talking to a person and have them put the information in the computer.

Dr Conrad and his team are the best. Extremely pleasant, efficient and knowledgeable. Every time I called with a question the answer was always given to me with in minutes, even if the person needed to check with someone. A very organized group that made me feel comfortable and confident with choosing them for my surgery.

Dr Conrad is an excellent doctor and an excellent communicator!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/10/2026
I avoid doctors and have little, if any trust of the medical system, so coming for the help I desperately needed, was very hard for me. I needed to be convinced that I could trust a doctor with a very serious operation. I'm still apprehensive and scared, but I seriously never thought I'd feel confident that I can have a successful outcome. I actually feel it can be...Dr. Conrad was a perfect fit for me. My husband and I trust him and that's huge for both of us! He truly impressed us, otherwise I'd have not gone thru with the plan.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 4/22/2026
This was my first visit for orthopedic care at Bellin and we were very impressed. Dr Conrad's staff was friendly and very professional. I had several different health issues which he discussed individually and then gave all options for treatment. Dr Conrad was personable, easy to talk to, a very positive experience!

Very good experience to meet and talk to him, he did a thorough explanation in terms for the most part that I could understand, and listened to my concerns.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/9/2026
This was my 2nd visit with Dr. Conrad in the past 3 years. He reviewed and listened to my concerns about my left knee. I find him to be very professional with a tremendous history of TKR surgery experience. He is definitely the go to Doctor for knee problems.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 3/9/2026
Dr. Conrad gave me a positive confidence about the upcoming surgery.

Dr. Conrad spent time with me answering any questions I had about my 5-year follow-up visit and explained the x-ray view. I did not feel that this visit was under any time constraint whatsoever. See you in another 5 years!

I had a great experience with Dr. Conrad and his care team. I'm young for a knee replacement, so I've been on the fence even though there's nothing more that can be done at this point. Dr. Conrad went above and beyond explaining the problem using my own knees and models, the solutions, the benefits, the risks, recovery, and the doubts in my mind. My husband and I both appreciate his thorough effort, attention to detail, and his bedside manner. His care team is also top notch and made it comfortable and seamless with this appointment and the upcoming ones. I especially appreciate the entire team's expertise and ability to explain things in a way for someone who isn't an expert to understand completely! I'm impressed and very comfortable and confident going forward.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/3/2026
Dr Conrad was very willing to answer questions and spend time w me explaining knee replacements with me. Very professional all around. Loved the newer building and its design- very impressive!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 2/2/2026
Dr. Conrad and his team are exceptional caregivers. Respectful, thorough, leaving me with confidence in my upcoming surgery will be successful. The preop information and planning is the most comprehensive I have seen - and my background is decades of healthcare work experience. Kudos to them all!
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 1/28/2026
Dr. Conrad is great. I feel so comfortable with him and he gives me the impression that he is not rushed and that I am important to him. His staff was also friendly and prompt. I travel from another city to go to this clinic and will continue to do so. I will also recommend them to others. Thank you for such a good experience.

Dr. Conrad is without a doubt the most incredible doctor. He is genuinely kind and concerned about his patients. He listens and never rushes through appointments . He engenders trust with complete answers and honesty. Bellin is lucky to have him on staff.

I think Dr Conrad is an awesome doctor who projects trustworthiness and caring with my best course of treatment at heart. He makes me feel like he considers me a human being deserving of best medical skills he has to offer. He is direct but kind.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/15/2025
Dr. Conrad and his team were very welcoming and thorough. Dr. Conrad shared his concern about my knee and came up with a short-term plan and began to talk about a long-term plan. While it was not the news I was looking for, his explanation was clear and I felt valued and listened to. I look forward to seeing him again after a couple of months. Thank you.
- 5 out of 5 starsReviewed on 12/11/2025
Dr. Conrad and his staff were excellent. Dr. Conrad explained everything that it was, questions that I had. He went over and above what he normally would have to do. The first time I ever had a doctor that asked me, 'do you have a few minutes or do you have a few minutes more to talk?' I thought that was excellent. He wasn't in a hurry to get to the next patient. He took his time with me, answered the questions I had and concerns. When I left, I felt really good about my decision for a future surgery. I would recommend him. He was referred to me from another doctor. It was an excellent referral and I will continue to do work with him and look forward to working with him in the future. Excellent doctor.

I'm really glad I saw Dr Conrad. He's very personable & easy to talk to. The nurse couldn't have been nicer. Gave me info & went over so much w/me as was the person that did the xray. As nervous as I was, they made the experience easier so thank you
