My initial visit with Dr. Rutherford gave me a great first impression. It was a consult in regards to possible joint surgery. He was professional yet friendly, patient in answering my questions, and took the time to explain my procedure when it becomes necessary. I feel comfortable in scheduling my procedure with him when the time comes.

I'd like to keep him a secret and keep him to myself, but that wouldn't be fair. His care and empathy is unmatched.

Very good. I had a total hip replacement. At my first appointment, Dr. Rutherford explained the various treatment options, and answered all my questions. Surgery was successful. The whole process was efficient, staff was knowledgeable and personable. Would definitely want Dr. Rutherford to do my other hip when it becomes necessary.

I was a bit leary of a partial knee replacement, but Dr Rutherford assured me it was the best proceedure for me. I had the surgery and was so glad I did. Surgery went great and I am now able to walk without limping and hurting. Dr. Rutherford is a great doctor who answers my questions no matter how trivial it may seem. Wonderful bedside manner. He has a great team that works with him and I appreciate all he has done for me. Will recommend him to everyone who needs knee surgery.

Two years ago I knew I needed an orthopedic surgeon, but despite searching and visiting a couple of highly recommended physicians, I just couldn't find the right person. That's when I started scrolling through possible orthopedic surgeons in our area, and I was thrilled to see that Dr. Richard Rutherford in practice back in NC!

Dr. Rutherford has completed one knee replacement for me which went... read more
