Hip
Your hip joint is integral in keeping your body in motion, but when your hip joint causes pain, every move you make can cause pain in other areas of the body.
The hip surgeons at the Bluegrass Orthopaedics can ease your suffering and get you back to a normal, daily routine. We offer state-of-the-art care in the most technologically advanced facilities. Our trained physicians work to ensure that you receive compassionate care in a relaxing atmosphere.
In addition to total hip replacement surgery, we provide care for labral tears and soft tissue injuries, as well as bony problems.
Our Hip Replacement Specialists
Bluegrass Orthopaedics physicians will generally try to address joint pain initially with non-surgical approaches, including rest, physical therapy, applications of heat or cold and medication. Injections of a cortisone-like drug directly into a joint can also often reduce pain and inflammation. However, sometimes these methods are not successful and surgery may be necessary.
The physicians at Bluegrass Orthopaedics can help restore the joy of movement and revitalize lives.

I have recently had one hip replacement surgery with the other to be performed soon. I am so thankful to have Dr Denehy as my surgeon
The first hip replacement surgery was uneventful and I expect the 2nd to be the equivalent
I highly recommend Dr Denehy and actually have referred several friends

Aside from being a phenominal surgeon he shows great compassion for his patients.
For anyone needing a knee or hip, you will not find a better surgeon.

Dr. Balthrop and his staff were simply outstanding! From my first visit to the time of my OUTPATIENT hip replacement yesterday everything was as professional as a well oiled machine, but also personalized. My assigned nurse called this morning to check on me. Almost no pain at all. It has been a day and a half and my main concern is not overdoing my movement, cause I feel like I could generally do anything I wanted to do. Thanks to Dr. Balthrop and his first rate staff!
