Larger than life in height and personality, Dr. Kutz' workhorse ethic propelled this practice into world-renowned recognition in the pioneering treatment of flexor tendon injuries and microsurgical techniques. Dr. Kutz trained countless hand fellows from all over the world and contributed numerous publications to the specialty throughout his illustrious career. He was a father, friend, beloved teacher, and surgeon and avid horseman who never missed a Derby! He was a pillar of the Louisville community and will be greatly missed by all who admired and loved him. Our sincere condolences to his family and Ann Ratterman, his longtime administrative assistant. Rest in peace, Dr. Kutz.
