Orthopedic Elbow Specialists in Atlanta

Are you suffering from elbow pain? We have some of Atlanta's best elbow doctors who offer effective treatments to help you find relief.

At Resurgens Orthopaedics, our orthopedic elbow specialists are highly trained. They focus on early diagnosis of elbow pain, which can help manage conditions before they become chronic or severe.

What Causes Elbow Pain?

Our elbows endure a lot of wear and tear from various daily activities, sports, and occupations. Repetitive motions can lead to overuse injuries like tennis elbow or golfer's elbow (you don't have to be a tennis player or golfer to be afflicted by either). There are also common trauma-related injuries like bursitis or hyperextension and chronic conditions like osteoarthritis or cubital tunnel syndrome that can cause pain and limit movement over time.

When Should You See a Doctor For Elbow Pain?

Elbow pain can be a cause for concern due to the elbow's role in many activities. Pain severity can vary greatly depending on the patient, but any persistent discomfort deserves medical attention.

Common signs to seek professional help include:

  • Constant pain: Pain that lasts weeks despite rest and over-the-counter pain medication.

  • Swelling: Noticeable swelling around the elbow joint.

  • Reduced mobility: Difficulty bending or straightening your arm.

  • Numbness or tingling: Numbness or tingling sensations in your arm or hand.

If you experience these symptoms, don't hesitate to schedule an appointment with our elbow specialists in Atlanta.

How We Diagnose Your Elbow Pain

The elbow is a complex mechanism that's at risk of developing a wide variety of conditions. For that reason, we place a high priority on properly diagnosing your specific condition before starting treatment.

Correctly diagnosing the cause of your elbow condition is vital for proper treatment. Our physicians and doctors use top-of-the-line radiography equipment to provide diagnostics and imaging. These include CT scans, EMG, MRI scans, and nerve conduction studies.

Certified technologists operate our equipment. These professionals receive extensive vetting - and recurring training - on the latest imaging techniques and procedures. You may also need to receive electrodiagnostic screening to determine your condition.

Surgical Treatment for Elbow Pain

More critical elbow conditions or injuries may require a surgical solution. At Resurgens, our elbows doctors will not recommend surgery unless all conservative methods have been exhausted.

Dr. Dennis is the best! She is very professional & knows her area. She seems to enjoy her job and is happy to see me. She listens! She hears and acts based on what she hears. Most of all it seems like she feels my pain with me (I know...she doesn't but she is very compassionate). I found out I was actually driving farther than necessary but that's okay by me!

I have been going to Dr. Thomas Ross over 10 years with shoulder, hip & knee problems. He did a total shoulder replacement on me 5 years and everything is fine. He never makes you feel like he is rushing you in & out ..... he listens ... he give you time to ask questions and answers them so you understand what is going on ... he is patient , friendly and very kind. He is wonderful and so is all his staff!

The best doctor I have ever had. Doc rebuilt my ankle after basketball injury at 46 years old in 2012. Ran a half marathon 6 months after pins, plate and screws. Just recently has two meniscus tears repaired. Dr McQusil is an excellent doctor and a great person. I would not think of allowing another doctor to handle my sports injuries or any other related issues. Dr. McQusil is the best.

I have been going to Dr. Fogle for about 5 years now. I finally had my shoulder surgery it went perfect. Very few doctors I trust like I do Dr Fogel. I would recommend him to any and all that are in the market for an incredible doctor. His staff is courteous knowledgeable and will go out of their way for you, that is very hard to find these days.

In my search I wanted to find someone not only technically qualified but one with a personality and one with whom I could build a relationship. He performed a total hip replacement on my right hip in mid-Summer 2015, my left hip in December 2017, and total replacement of my right knee in December 2017. In all my interactions with Dr. Kim and his staff they were professional and showed concern for my health and safety. I would recomment Dr. Stephen Kim for your hip/knee orthopedic needs.

Outstanding!!! Had a pretty bad compound fracture on my leg. But I was so fortunate that Dr. Bruggers was available that Sunday morning to operate on my leg. No complications whatsoever. The next day, I was able to walk (with walker), dress and bathe myself. Didn't take any painkillers from the second day on. 2 weeks later, am able to walk short distances w/o crutches. Absolutely amazing. She's the best!!!

Brooke a piece of my joint off at the base of my thumb in a SkyZone Trampoline Fitness class. It floated away from the bone with the ligament attached. Dr. Patel did a great job at explaining everything to me prior to surgery. I knew exactly what to expect. The Resurgens group is amazing. I still have to go back and have the cast taken off and pin removed. Hoping the pin removal does not hurt. He said it would not, just be uncomfortable. He has been spot on about everything else, so not as anxious.

What I love about Dr. Peretz is his ability to make you feel comfortable and he really listens to you. I’ve gone to others orthopedic surgeon and their first thought is to operate. Dr. Peretz reviews ALL options.

I had a cervical issue for a number of years and it was seriously affecting my life as a guitarist/musician. The pain and numbness was so bad in my left arm / hand, I was virtually unable to play. After Dr. Bennett Grimm gave me ACDF surgery, I'm completely back to normal. I couldn't ask for better care and expertise than Bennett Grimm. Shout out also to Emily and Chelsey too! amazing work from Resurgens Orthopaedics... you guys totally ROCK!

Resurgens Orthopaedics Varied

Dr. Daftari is the best surgeon I could've have ever asked for. My case was a workmans comp case and Dr. Daftari fought very hard for me to get the treatment and surgery I desperately needed. We fought for a year and I finally received my surgery. I could not have imagined I would have felt this good so soon after my surgery. Thanks to him I'm now walking straight again and pain free. He is absolutely a doctor who cares about his patients!!
