Atlanta Hip Doctors

Hip pain affects millions of people annually. Early treatment is key to avoiding further complications. At Resurgens Orthopaedics, our Atlanta hip specialists aim to diagnose the cause and develop personalized treatment plans. Schedule an appointment to explore options for your mobility.

Understanding Hip Anatomy

The foundation of your mobility lies in the hip joint, the largest ball-and-socket joint in the body. Imagine a smooth, rounded ball (femoral head) at the top of your thigh bone (femur) fitting snugly into a cup-like socket (acetabulum) in your pelvis. This simple design allows for a wide range of motion, from walking to jumping. But the hip is more than just connecting bones: Powerful muscles surround the joint, providing strength and control for everyday movement. Understanding the hip's structure empowers you to describe your hip pain to your doctor better, and work together to find the right treatment for you.


What Causes Hip Pain?

Due to the hip's complexity, hip pain can originate in many different parts of the joint. Common hip conditions include arthritis, injuries from overuse or accidents, and bursitis, the inflammation of fluid sacs cushioning the joint.

Muscle strains, tendonitis, and bone abnormalities can also contribute to hip pain. If you're experiencing hip pain, our Atlanta hip specialists at Resurgens Orthopaedics can help pinpoint the cause and create a personalized treatment plan.

When Should You See a Doctor For Hip Pain?

If you're experiencing significant hip pain or limitations in movement that affect your ability to sit, stand, or walk comfortably, it's time to see one of our hip doctors in Atlanta. Here are some other symptoms that signal you should see a hip specialist:

  • New or persistent hip pain

  • Difficulty moving your hip or leg

  • Inability to put weight on your leg

  • Hip pain following a fall or injury

Understanding Hip Treatments

Patients Trust Our Atlanta Hip Doctors

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.

I came to Dr. Dantuluri after almost two full years of frequent surgeries surrounding an extremely bad injury to my shoulder. I was in constant pain, and had almost no mobility. Dr. Dantuluri was extremely patient, and discussed all of my potential options in-depth before suggesting a best course of action. He made sure I was comfortable in the decision, and spoke about what my expectations should be in the future.Almost a year out from a total shoulder reconstruction, I have felt better than I have in years, and the care from Dr. Dantuluri has been exquisite. Everyone should be so lucky to have him as their caregiver.

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.

Dr. Achecar is a Great Doctor He operated on my Knee and I did not have any pain at all. Everything went smooth. I have recommended 2 people to him and they were well pleased. He needs 10 stars. Would not use anyone else.

Dr. Pines has such an awesome bedside manner!! An honest doctor, that's very gentle, apologetic, and nice on top of that!! I would refer anyone to him, that needed him. 5 stars for Dr. Pines at Resurgens, in McDonough, Ga.

Excellent care and service from check-in to post-op follow up. Highly recommend Dr. Albritton and Resurgens Orthopaedics.

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!

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.

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 am a rather unique patient as I do not have normal feeling in my extremities. I presented to Dr Clark with a toe that had been injured and swollen for about 10 days. After an MRI it was determined I had shattered the bones in my toe. Dr Clark had me in surgery within 48 hours and was very transparent throughout the process. He is personable and caring I would recommend him for any podiatry needs.
