We offer a variety of services for all areas of sports medicine, total joint care, industrial medicine and foot, ankle and hand care. We pride ourselves in treating athletes of all ages - from the youth sports athlete, to the weekend warrior, the industrial athlete, to the senior athlete.
The Comeback Champion was created in conjunction with our annual BGO Night of Champions. BGO would like to provide a platform for our patients to share their personal experiences overcoming their injury and recovery. Please look through the stories here, as we are hopeful these individuals inspire you as they have inspired us.

While sports medicine physicians care for high-level athletes, we also specialize in active seniors and the wellness of athletes of all ages. At our Sports Medicine and Physical Performance Center, as well at our Georgetown office, our team of orthopaedic specialists work closely together to evaluate and treat sports injuries.

She took a look at my x-rays and took a few additional ones and explained in detail what needed to be done. All the staff that I came into contact with were all friendly and professional. From check-in, physical therapy to check-out. I appreciate Tina, Dr. Vasiceks clinical assistant, who went above and beyond the call of duty helping get all the updated short term disability paperwork to my employers. Dr. Vasicek took great care of me!

I could tell he was more than interested in my past issues and really listened to what I had to say. Dr. Harrod provided a couple of options that did not include surgery. I would highly recommend Dr. Harrod and, if need be, will see him again should I continue to have issues with my foot.

Workers Compensation denied Dr. Donegan. They assigned me a surgeon at UK Orthopedics. This UK surgeon missed 2 major medical steps in my recovery. Dr. Donegan repaired my shoulder with quality recovery. I would highly recommend Dr. Donegan if you have shoulder issues. You will not regret it.
