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.

      Felted like I was quickly dismissed and he didn't seem very concerned about my problems nor was he listening to me. Doctors bed side manner was very poor and bad. Didn't felt like I was talked to with respect called me kiddo when I'm 22 years of age. Tone of voice was horrible. Like I said felt very dismissed proceed to tell I looked depressed and told em I need to take medication or talk to some one ab it when I wasn't not. Just wasn't happy with how he was handling things and nor how I was being talked too and treated

      I honestly think Dr.Chase Kluemper is one of the best doctor's in this state... He's up front, doesn't lie, always told me the truth, whether I wanted to hear it or not, and just the character of this man is hard too beat !!! I believe that we the ppl of Ky, and the world of medicine is very fortunate too have this man !!! I very thankful for him, he not only saved my life, my hand, but he kept me in a positive mind frame, and always optimistic about my situation....

      Was very brief and did not give an explanation for the issue I have. Or even provide a solution on how not to repeat or treat.
