Dr. Rutherford was very clear and direct in explaining what to expect from my knee replacement. I appreciated the fact he didn’t attempt to sugarcoat it. That’s not to say he wasn’t extremely kind and empathetic. He is both compassionate and professional, and I left his office with the assurance I had found an exceptional orthopedic surgeon.

Dr. Rutherford gave wonderful pre-surgery support, carefully explaining the procedure and outcomes. He was a great listener, and instilled calm and confidence. His surgical skills were outstanding, especially in closing the incision and leaving only a very minimal scar. I am very happy with my knee replacement, and will absolutely choose Dr. Rutherford for my other knee in the future. I was also impressed by the quality of care by the clinical staff, the NC Specialty Hospital team, and the post-surgery PT program and staff.
