Dr. Eric John Schafer, MD

Dr Schafer immediately comes across as a genuinely good man. He’s very knowledgeable and takes the time to not only answer questions but explain the background information needed to understand his answers. The whole place is run efficiently and the staff is always kind.

Dr Schafer is a phenomenal physician whose overall attitude breeds confidence. He is knowledgeable yet kind and very helpful in every way. I HIGHLY recommend him

Dr Schafer was just great. Welcoming and very thorough and knew exactly where to give cortisone injection with no pain at all. I was very pleased with our first visit.

Dr. Schafer was so kind and explained everything we asked to help us feel at ease.He worked very hard to get my surgery scheduled quicklly. I feel blessed to have him as my Dr. and highly recommend him!

This was my initial meeting with Dr Shafer and I was extremely pleased with the time that was taken to go over things and put my mind at ease!

Dr Schafer was great! I was referred to him because my Dr thought I needed surgery. Dr Schafer went over the X-Rays and MRI and concluded that physical therapy would probably resolve my problem. I went to PT in my town and once completing the prescription went back to Dr Schafer for my follow up. PT that he prescribed did the trick, my knee is back to normal and it didn't take any surgery. We did discuss that should I have any other issues in the future that surgery might then be needed, but for now I'm heeled and very happy!!!

Dr. Schafer is great. He treats you like he knows you. He is straight forward with your need for treatment and he gives you options and lets you decide what you want to do. He sees you on time as your appointment is scheduled. He has a great staff and he and them get right on getting you scheduled for treatment to take care of your pain and make your quality of life better.

I would recommend Dr Schafer very highly. I see him for the first time last year for a knee replacement that had went wrong from another MD. He was very helpful answering all my questions. He explained the pros and cons of my upcoming surgery. He was friendly but professional. He did an awesome job on my surgery and I had very little pain afterwards. I recently returned for my yearly check up. I highly recommend Blue Grass Orthopedics and Dr Schafer

I seen Dr Schafer for the first time in fall of 2024 for a revised knee replacement. I was in a lot of pain from a previous knee replacement. Dr Schafer is an excellent surgeon. I had very little pain ( only once) after the surgery. He is very nice and friendly yet at the same time very professional. He took time to listen to me and answered all my questions. He explained to me the pros and cons of my upcoming surgery. Making me feel very comfortable. I would definitely recommend him to everyone. Thank you Dr Schafer!!
