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.

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

I can’t say enough about my experience with my hip surgery. Dr Hanna and his team are genuine, knowledgeable , proactive and caring. I only met Dr Hanna twice but I immediately felt comfortable. He is smart, experienced, up on his game and genuinely concerned. I loved his sense of humor, ‘bedside manner’ and his over all personality. He took his time with me making sure I was aware of the process from start to finish. He knows his stuff. He indulged me as my nervousness made me crack silly jokes, in my typical form. Post surgery same day; I feel amazing! Dr. Hanna and the team, work as tribe, together , as they combine their knowledge creating an amazing experience for me. Highly recommend!

The staff and Dr. Pines were wonderful. Took the time to listen and explain the issue to me and were very thorough. Excellent team!

Dr. Khan, he is the most amazing doctor i have ever met because he has given me a second life to live by doing my ankle surgery and motivated me to stand on my feet again.

I twisted my knee at work. After going to a workman comp doctor and him telling me that nothing was wrong. I kind of got discouraged. I ask my workman comp insurance rep to find me another doctor. She then sent me to Resurgens Orthopaedics Dr. Womack. From the first day I met him I knew I was in good hands. He explained everything to me from beginning to end.... He takes his time with his patients and he really cares about your well being. He is really good at what he does. HE IS A GREAT DOCTOR!

I visited Dr. Jonas to discover I had a seriously fractured scaphoid in my right wrist. After giving me all my options to correct this condition I chose to have Dr. Jonas remove and reshape the bone and a screw was inserted. I was extremely pleased with Dr. Jonas as well as everyone at the office I have dealt with. I would highly recommend Dr. Jonas to anyone in need of similar services. Approximately 10 years ago Dr. Jonas repaired a similar bone in my left wrist. Great results on both!

Dr. Goins has done spinal surgery on me, and 3 other immediate family members. We are all so appreciative of his expertise, caring attitude, & our excellent outcomes. I cannot say enough about this excellent, compassionate, skilled surgeon!

Dr. Dopson was GREAT! Cervical surgery was PAINLESS, and healing time was rapid. Couldn't have asked for more. He has a wonderful bedside manner and I would recommend him to my family and my best friend! Claudia Booth, RN

Dr. Womack is one of the best orthopedic doctors in Atlanta. I can say that with confidence given that he has performed surgery on myself and family members. I healed very well, was treated in a hospital that didn't charge an crazy amount (like Emory or Piedmont), and and was treated well after surgery. Dr. Womack is very knowledgeable and unlike many doctors he has an excellent bedside manner. He is busy but he has always taken the time to answer my questions. A friendly, knowledgeable, and skilled surgeon and doctor, it's hard to find better.

THE ULTIMATE PEACE OF MIND! After becoming concerned about swelling in my injured hand, I decided to follow up with Dr. Mowbray (hand specialist), at Resurgens. I was able to get an immediate "same day" appointment. When I arrived, I had already downloaded and completed the necessary paperwork so I had a very short wait. Dr. Mowbray has a very easy manner about him, does a great job of educating about wound care and is very thorough. X-rays were taken to determine the full extent of the injury, an additional stitch was removed to relieve pressure, my meds were adjusted, I received specific instruction on hand exercises and I was given a splint to provide additional support. Later that night, I noticed a significant decrease in the swelling while the mobility in my fingers had significantly increased. YES! I was elated because this means that the healing process is on target and I will likely avoid further intervention. The best decision I could have made was to follow up as soon as possible. During my entire visit, the staff in this office was very professional, pleasant and efficient. I highly recommend Dr. Mowbray and his staff if you are ever in need of a hand and arm specialist.

Great Doctor and Staff! Repaired torn meniscus in my left knee. Took time to explain all my options. Surgery scheduled promptly and results are excellent. Cleared to go back to full activity four weeks after the surgery!
