    He was the first orthopedic doctor who took my pain seriously. I felt validated and heard. For years I went unheard. Dr Lockstadt has a great bed side manner, as well as Jim his PA is awesome. I would strongly recommend him. He was the first orthopedic doctor who took my pain seriously. I felt validated and heard. For years I went unheard.

    This is the second (unrelated) injury I’ve had where I’ve had to consult Bluegrass Ortho and Dr. Harrod. The first requires surgery; the second did not. In both instances, from the receptionist all the way up to the great doc... This is the second (unrelated) injury I’ve had where I’ve had to consult Bluegrass Ortho and Dr. Harrod. 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.

    Have been seeing Dr Vasicek for several years. She has two knee surgeries for me. I wouldn’t go to anyone else. Highly recommend.

    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.

    Wonderful with my 6 year old with a broken elbow. Couldn't ask for a better doctor.

    Excellent Doctor Been to three other doctors who acknowledged my arthritis and carpal tunnel. None offered any help. Dr Favetto understood my pain and how to help me.

    Dr Denehy is very knowledgeable about hip replacement and explained the procedure so I understood the process and risks. He answered all my questions and helped me feel better about my decision regarding hip replacement. I appreciate...

    Bilateral rotator cuff surgeries, throw in one severed bicep repair - completed by Dr Donegan. I would never use anyone other than him for shoulder or elbow injuries. He is not only an excellent surgeon, but and exceptional human being! Bilateral rotator cuff surgeries, throw in one severed bicep repair - completed by Dr Donegan.

    Dr. Favetto is amazing. I walked into his office in pain and walked out pain free. He completely explained my condition and my options so that I could make an informed decision. I chose a steroid shot for my hand and it worked miracles.... Dr. Favetto is amazing. I walked into his office in pain and walked out pain free. He completely explained my condition and my options so that I could make an informed decision. I chose a steroid shot for my hand and it worked miracles. He also told me that the length of the pain relief would differ from patient to patient and that would further help me to decide if I wanted to have surgery for the arthritis. I highly recommend Dr. Favetto and I will continue to see him if I have further issues.
