About

John Sassano, DO, is a board-certified family medicine and sports medicine physician with fellowship training in sports medicine and over 37 years of clinical experience. He completed his family medicine residency at Cuyahoga Falls General Hospital and his sports medicine fellowship in 1989. A member of the American Osteopathic Association of Family Physicians and the American Osteopathic Association of Sports Medicine, he brings specialized expertise in primary care and musculoskeletal injuries.

Dr. Sassano provides primary and sports medicine care for adult patients through in-person and virtual visits. He offers treatments including joint and viscosupplementation injections, osteopathic manipulative medicine and minor skin procedures.

He takes a holistic approach to care, addressing the whole person — mind, body and lifestyle — to provide personalized care aligned with each patient's needs and goals. His osteopathic training informs his philosophy of treating patients as complete individuals rather than isolated symptoms.

Originally from Akron, Ohio, Dr. Sassano enjoys golfing, hiking, traveling, spending time with his family and cooking.

Ratings and comments are obtained from verified patient survey data collected on behalf of HonorHealth by a third-party vendor, Press Ganey Associates, Inc. HonorHealth uses Press Ganey’s MD satisfaction surveys to assess patients' experiences with healthcare providers and staff in our Medical Group practices. In order to support full transparency, HonorHealth ensures that the full range of patient comments, both positive and negative, are published.

Star ratings are displayed only for those physicians who participate in HonorHealth’s patient experience survey program through Press Ganey and have received a minimum of 30 surveys responses.

Despite the drive toward full transparency, occasionally some comments cannot be published because they jeopardize the patient’s privacy, contain vulgar or offensive language, or contain libelous or defamatory content. In these rare instances, comment exclusion based on a strict set of exclusion criteria may be appropriate.
