Are Orthopedic Telehealth Appointments Right For Me?

Orthopedic telehealth allows patients who have difficulty complying with treatment schedules the freedom to be seen by their provider at a time that works best for them. Orthopedic telehealth appointments may benefit the following patients:

  • Patients with chronic joint aches and muscle pain.
  • Individuals needing follow-up appointments after surgery or treatment.
  • Those with acute injuries who require immediate attention.
  • Patients requiring frequent physical therapy sessions.
  • Anyone who cannot easily access one of our physical locations due to distance or mobility issues.

Telehealth visits may not be the best option if you have limited access to technology, have unreliable hardware, or are unfamiliar with troubleshooting your devices.

Had my custom Conformis total knee replacement done at Bluegrass orthopaedics surgery center in 2015. Dr. Huff and his surgery staff did an absolutely awesome job with my outpatient surgery on my total knee. Since then I've also had two shoulder surgeries with Dr Huff. I believe with all my heart that Dr. Huff has unmatched skill as a orthopedic doctor! I drive 90 mi to see Dr Huff because there is no other doctor that cares for his patients as much as he does.

They are great. Excellent communication between staff and doctor. Doctor Favetto is gentle, he explained all my options, and discussed all possible side effects aka problems that might occur with the type of surgery we are considering. They are great.
