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. Surgical procedures can range from minimally-invasive arthroscopic treatments to intensive procedures like Tommy John tendon grafts.

If your elbow physician recommends a surgical solution, you can rest assured knowing that our board-certified, fellowship-trained physicians and surgeons are respected experts in their field.

Patients Trust Our Atlanta Elbow Doctors

The office staff was polite and helpful. Dr. Tan knew what she was talking about, and spent a long time explaining my condition to me. Even gave me a lot of written information about my problem. She made me feel very comfortable (I'm usually anxious around doctors), and that she would take good care of me. I liked her a lot because she's so smart and compassionate. I would certainly recommend her to anyone who needs to see a hand and upper extremity surgeon for sure.

I had a AC separation last year and was taken care of almost immediately after the injury and was given great guidance and support through the recovery time. Doctor Albert did a great job and was very helpful when I had questions and concerns. Recovery went great and haven't had a problem since.

These ease of scheduling with Resurgens was simple and quick with my injury! The office is very knowledgeable about insurance and filing. Dr. Levere is a very patient, kind, and thorough hand specialist. He listens to your concerns and is careful with your injury. He provides the best options of care when available and takes the necessary measures to figure out your problem before recommending any treatment. Stacey the NP is a "jewel"! She is very soft spoken, sweet, answers all of my many questions, and cared for me as well. Even on the visits I see her, Dr. Levere comes in to check that my visit went well and if I have any other questions. The professionalism starts from the entrance of the door, front office, assistant seating me in the room, MRI, and entire team! I really appreciate each you for all you have done. Even during the Pandemic.

I had surgery with Dr. Goins last December. He was wonderful !! The PA and nurses at the office are great. Yes, they do remind you of your appointment. Yes, you may have a bit of a wait when you get there to see the doctor or PA. The reason for this is these people make SURE you understand everything and that all your questions are answered. I have heard them deal with the elderly and they are very patient. I appreciate this. Dr. Goins knew I was scared to have back surgery. He did not rush any of my appointments. I would rather wait for a doctor who takes their time with a person than one who over books, rushes in, quickly goes over things and rushes out leaving you still having questions.

It was a good visit. I got a steroid shot in the hip. He was informative and seemed to care about the problem. I will visit him again if needed. I would recommend him to others.

Love you and miss you Dr C 💔😢

Been going to Resurgens for several years. Neck issues, knee issues, and back problems. Yep I'm a mess. But all the folks at Resurgens have always been accommodating and caring while assisting me in alleviating my issues. I can personally vouch for Dr. Achecar, Dr. Daftari and Dr. Dows-Martinez. And their rehab team is just as awesome to get everything working again. Dr. Achecar is a magician, 3 weeks ago he replaced my knee and I was up walking around without any aid 2 days later, slowly, but it was walking. He strides to do as little damage as possible while getting the new knee in. He is also good person with his patients comfort in mind. He will be doing my other knee when the time comes. Dr. Daftari pretty much the same way. I hadn't worked with him long prior to some fusing in my neck but treated me like one of the family. Highly recommend Resurgens Douglasville, Austell, and Vinings.

Had three surgeries with Dr. Miller, left an right rotator cuff, right hand carpal tunnel. Was best Dr. I ever had a in my 70 years I have had many Dr's. Very caring, explains every thing to be done in layman's terms that anyone can understand.

Dr. Dennis is the best doctor! Have seen many for my back but she is the first one who knew how to help me. I cannot praise her enough!

Dr. Rosenstein was great. He was very knowledgable and spent all the time I needed explaining to me what I needed to know about my knee. I highly recommend!!!
