About

I was born and raised in Lexington, Ky. My wife, children and I are happy to be back in the Bluegrass, where I enjoy providing cutting-edge hand, wrist and elbow care for the region. I'm an avid UK sports fan and enjoy cheering and treating the athletes who wear the blue and white!

Personal Statement

Orthopaedic hand, wrist and elbow surgery allows me to care for newborn babies, octogenarians and everyone in between. Our hands allow us to experience and interact with the world, and it's a privilege to be able to restore function to patients with a variety of problems.

    I will recommend UK Health Community to others. I'm glad this is where I went. I'm thankful for their help and concern if my mending.

    Patient Review

    Almost every person there (the PA, the nurses, the lady who came in prior to the doctor-i can't remember her title) was extremely nice and helpful. The doctor tried very hard to answer all of my questions thoroughly and discuss our options without rushing. I feel like his overall judgments and decisions were correct, and that he is excellent at his job. However, when I brought up another's opinion on my injuries, he rolled his eyes. He also disregarded a few of my concerns without talking through why he was disregarding them. So I think he performed his job excellently, but I wish that he had been nicer in his approach.

      Dr. Kluemper was fantastic. He explained the injury and had two options for care. Surgery was the best option in my case for the need of a hopefully quick recovery.
