Dr Harrod concern for his patient shows. It was my first time having to visit Bluegrass for a sudden foot issue. Dr. Harrod wasted no time displaying care while understanding my issue. He did not schedule be for a second consult visit just to run up another bill. He quickly diagnosed and had a solution to my problem. I needed a shot directly in the area to help with my pain. He explain what I should expect over the next weeks and then said he would want to check my progress in a few weeks. He is a great Doctor who treats all of his patients the same. Great 1st visit. I recommend him highly.

After the initial contact and subsequent surgery, I feel very confident in recommending Dr. Harrod to anyone in need of services he provides. In addition to exhibiting professionalism and knowledge, Dr. Harrod actually listens to the patient. I have learned that Dr. Harrod treated my brother’s foot fractures several years ago and he also was very pleased with his treatment and outcome.

Dr. Harrod was very professional and took time to listen to my concerns. He asked several questions and then explained the nature of the problem with my feet and the course of action that he felt was the best for me.

He has always been so thorough and helpful. I currently have another knee injury and the E.r wanted to refer me elsewhere. I will not go anywhere else. He had no issues with signing forms for when in was in high school to get out of gym class until healed.

Efficient office staff who got us in the same day for an urgent appointment, and Dr. Hunt was knowledgeable and kind to our daughter who had a broken bone in her foot. I would highly recommend Dr. Travis Hunt.

The first requires surgery; the second did not. In both instances, from the receptionist all the way up to the great doc himself, everyone was courteous, polite, professional, and sincerely understanding and helpful of/to my injury. As for Dr. Harrod—Fantastic! Most importantly, he’s competent. Second most important, he explains everything to the patient and allows ample time for questions.

After looking at x-rays and learning about my ability to walk well in wide athletic shoes, he recommended that I not have surgery at this time. Since I have arthritis in my big toe joint, the recovery time would be 3-4 months. I was surprised but pleased that Dr. Harrod told me that he could fix my bunion problem, but advised me to wait until I was having difficulty walking. I was very impressed with the efficiency of the staff at Bluegrass Orthopaedics, and with Dr. Harrod's professionalism.
