Best surgeon ever! Did not even consider allowing another surgeon to do my right hip ...he also did my left hip. Best results I could ask for. Dr. Ryan has the best professional attitude for his patients making them totally at east. I recommend him to my friends.

Dr. Andrew Ryan graduated cum laude from Dartmouth College in New Hampshire where he studied abstract mathematics. He attended Indiana University School of Medicine graduating in 1988 to become the 4th generation "Dr. Ryan". He then served his internship in surgery at The John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, followed by an additional year as Junior Assistant Resident, 1988-1990. Upon completion of his orthopedic residency program at The Ohio State University Hospitals from 1991-1996, he joined Lexington Orthopaedic Associates which has now merged with Kentucky Bone & Joint Surgeons. Dr. Ryan has been active with the Kentucky Orthopedic Society and served as Vice President from 2007-2009, then President from 2009-2011. He currently represents Kentucky at the AAOS Board of Councilors. He has delivered lectures on biomechanics of the golf swing, as well as analysis of new orthopedic materials. He has research interests in golf theory and decision making for surgeons and surgical economics. He considers his practice motto to be: Saving the world one limb at a time. Dr. Ryan has developed a special interest in replacement surgeries for the hip and knee and is experienced in surgical and nonoperative management of conditions involving the shoulder, elbow, hands, hips, knees, and feet. His most common procedures are total joint replacement of the hip and knee, and he keeps a steady practice of carpal tunnel surgery and other minor hand and fracture surgery. Dr. Ryan began performing anterior approach total hip arthroplasty in 2010. He has recently completed his 674th such operation (and counting), many of these as same-day outpatient surgery at Kentucky Surgery Center. Although he grew up in Columbus, Indiana, he now considers his home to be in Lexington with his wife, Toni. His son, Wilson, is an electrical engineer in California and his daughter, Abby, can be found in the office as his assistant while she prepares to be a fifth-generation "Dr. Ryan".
