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

Dr. WIllett, is very personable and has helped me with my myofascial trigger points.

Dr. Jeff Peretz and his team have been awesome! They are professional, friendly and attentive. Dr. Peretz spent a lot of time with us during the initial consultation for a total knee replacement and was very thorough in detailing his pre op and post op instructions! The surgery went exactly as planned and so did the recovery. Amazing improvement in range of motion and mobility. His team was supportive and responsive to phone calls. Highly recommend Dr. Jeff Peretz for Total knee replacement!

My husband has used Resurgens for several surgeries and we have always been very pleased. Friendly, caring nurses and doctors. We never feel like they have overbooked surgeries where we feel rushed. He just had total knee replacement and the nurses and doctors were great!

Dr. Hui is the BEST. He is professional, caring and listens intently to my concerns. He is very knowledgeable and able. I've had two successful surgeries with Dr. Hui and would not hesitate to go back about any other issues.

Excellent "staff" and front desk! As for the caregivers... Jason under Dr Ansari. Dr Ansari, Yarbrough, Raut, and PRETESH..EXCELLENT. And the staff for EACH OF THESE ARE GREAT. VERY SWEET, prompt, and move things along.

Dr. Cahoon performed a total left hip replacement surgery on me Nov. 14, 2016 and my life is forever changed. I am no longer in pain as a matter of fact I didn't feel any pain the day after surgery because I was up and walking with a walker of course. Dr. Cahoon and the staff at Piedmont Henry made me feel so relaxed before and after my surgery. He was so kind and attentive to make sure I was ok. I would refer him to anybody that need joint replacement surgery.

My experience with Resurgens Orthopaedics Midtown, Dr. Arthur Raines and his PA, has been phenomenal. Their professional comfort and assurance contributed to my ease in having my Achilles surgery. They went above and beyond to make me feel comfortable and for that I am sincerely grateful.

Dr. Middlebrooks and his PA are the best and understand patient's dynamics and the care they need for their medical issues. The staff in the Lawrenceville office are the best. Everyone is so professional and treat you with respect and dignity. They listen to you and also have you contribute to the medical plan and they don't just throw their treatment plan at you without explaining everything to you. They also explains it to you on your level so that when you leave their office you have a great understanding of what is it that they are trying to accomplish and to assist you to get your health back on track. Every doctor need to take a page out of their book because they understand patient's dynamic and their health needs. I love these guys and will trust all my family and friends with them. Keep up the good work guys because you are the best in the bone, joints and muscle business.

I shattered my ankle in April and Dr. Bruggers operated on my leg repairing both my tibia and fibula with a few plates and screws. Every time I spoke with her, she reassured me that I'd be okay and that my progress was going well. She explained the whole process to me and she was clear about how physical therapy would go as well. She answered all of my questions and I trusted her with my treatment. Dr. Bruggers is a wonderful doctor.

Dr. Bircoll replaced my right hip and had some complications. He got everyone on board and helped me at each turn. I trust Dr. Bircoll so much that he is now going to replace the left hip. His office staff also goes above and beyond to make sure you understand everything that is going on. I highly recommend Dr. BIRCOLL!
