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.

She was such an uplifting doctor she will be missed.

THE BEST SURGEON HANDS DOWN! I had a rollover accident while driving a concrete truck. Worker's Comp was paying my medical bills and if you've dealt with worker's comp before, you know how they like to rush the recovery and cut you off financially. Mark McBride took his time to listen, he was compassionate and understanding. My arm was severely hurt and he really does work miracles. I highly recommended him!

Dr. Satterwhite was great with helping restore my knee function. The physical therapy with Don and Emily was very effective. I went from limping around to moving confidently again without pain.

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 was involved in an accident which left my right hand and wrist in a lot of pain. She went above and beyond before, during, and after my surgery. Dr. Bilbrew is not only extremely knowledgeable but she was also extremely attentive. She took the time to explain each step of treatment to me in a way which I could understand. I am forever grateful to Dr. Bilbrew for making my road to recovery as quick and easy as possible. After her treatment, I am pain free! I owe it all to Dr. Bilbrew!

I very recently had total right hip replacement surgery by Dr. Bircoll at DeKalb Medical Surgery Center. The hip replacement has been a complete success and pain that I have experienced in the hip for a long time is gone. In addition, Dr. Bircoll and his staff are outstanding. They worked very hard at each step to make sure that I understood what to do and felt comfortable. They answered questions carefully and completely. I would highly recommend Dr. Bircoll to anyone needing hip surgery.

Prior to seeing Dr. Stewart, my foot/ankle deformity caused a great deal of pain for over 6 years. Dr. Stewart went over my options, was extremely compassionate, understanding and very thorough. We made a plan that began with pre-surgery physical therapy, then surgery, now post op PT. 3 weeks ago I walked pain free for the first time in over 6 years!! My only question is why did it take me so long to find Dr. Stewart!? Best team EVER!! Thank you very much and God Bless you Dr. Stewart!!

If I could give him a 10 , I absolutely would! Have had excellent results with his treatment plan.

I fractured my foot and was terrified of what would come next. This place is big, clean and you can feel the overall positive vibes from the entire staff. The x-ray techs took great care in the x-rays to make sure not to hurt me. The assistant Regina had me laughing while being careful and thorough with my cast. Dr. Raj Bohle was kind, knowledgeable, and answered all my questions. Specifically asked me what I needed, and reassured me that I would heal fine. The other two assistants were positive and kind and everyone put me at ease. Everything ran like clockwork here and I'm so thankful, since broken bones are scary.

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.
