Orthopaedic Specialists Medication Refill Policy
There will be absolutely no medication refills after office hours and over the weekends or holidays. Dr. Grossfeld will not have access to your medical records and from a risk management prospective is unable to refill. The only way to potentially get a refill during those times is to be seen at an urgent care center or emergency department. Those facilities may also elect not to refill your medication. Unfortunately there is vast abuse of narcotics in the state of Kentucky which has made these policies necessary.

Committee's Served
Dr. Grossfeld is a member of the Emergency Department Committee at Baptist Hospital East (BHE) on behalf of Orthopaedic Specialists. The committees meet regularly. Physicians from other specialties are on the committee along with key administrative staff at BHE.

I have been a patient of Dr. Grossfeld's since 1997. She has always been very professional, as has her office staff. It's nice to come into the office and have the staff recognize you instead of being treated like "just another patient". Dr. Grossfeld has always approached my treatment carefully and cautiously, including consulting with other doctors outside of her practice and even presenting me at a conference to best plan out my course of treatment.
