Scott Froum DDS

Chris Durham MD

Founder of Bluegrass Preventive Medicine, Dr. Durham has created an innovative model for enhanced health. He has combined the latest science around bioidentical hormone replacement, regenerative, peptides, functional and metabolic medicine, to provide state-of-the-art wellness solutions for his patients.

Regenerative medicine is a branch of medicine that uses the body’s own cells and to help with healing of degenerative tissue. Over the last two decades, scientists have made remarkable progress in developing tissue regeneration techniques that provide effective pain management solutions.

Pellet therapy uses hormones to replicate the body’s normal hormonal levels. Patients have found that bio-identical hormone replacement therapy with pellet implants is extremely effective. Implants, placed under the skin, consistently release small, physiologic doses of hormones that provide optimal therapy.

The new peptide medicines are a groundbreaking development that can help patients with a wide range of medical issues. Peptides have a wide range of applications.

A graduate of the University of Louisville School of Medicine, he completed residency training at the University of Kentucky. He is Board Certified and has over 15 years of experience.
