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

  • Sudden swelling or redness around the hip

  • Hip pain accompanied by fever or chills

Dr. Quisling along with his personal staff, Heather Crotts and the rest of the staff at Resurgens Orthopaedics were absolutely amazing. The whole process has been seamless . Between seeing the doctor and/or his team, having surgery at the on site surgery center and then doing rehabilitation at the onsite rehab center has been truly an easy process. The quality of care has been tremendous. Every staff member has went out of there way to make sure they take care of your needs.

Dr. Rosenstein performed a Total Knee Replacement on my right knee in February of 2017. His professionalism and expertise have allowed me to regain my strength and mobility. He is talented, honest and caring. I highly recommend him.

I have been a patient of Dr. Mowbray’s for almost 10 years. He had performed two surgeries on my hands in the past and I am having #3 next week. Besides being the excellent physician/surgeon that he is, he also cares about his patients and is thorough in his explanations and takes time to answer all my questions and concerns. His staff is also pleasant and the office is always meticulously clean and comfortable! I highly recommend Dr. Mowbray if you have hand/wrist/arm issues!!

I can say with no hesitation that Dr. Cone-Sullivan saved my life. I was in a horrible car accident, and after 4 procedures and 2 surgeries - I am living a much better life. She listened to me, worked with me, even held my hand when I was crying. The nursing staff that also took care of my were always so kind. I can't tell you how grateful I am. Thank you, may God bless you and your family.

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!

Excellent surgeon with a comfortable bedside manner. The entire office was easy to deal with and always eager to make sure that my mom was well cared for. Everyone went the extra mile to fully explain every detail of the procedure and answer any questions or concerns that we had. Scheduling or changing appointments was an easy process as well.

I saw Dr. Albritton yesterday. My entire visit took less than 30 minutes. The staff was knowledgeable and friendly. Dr Albritton was through and to the point It was a great experience from beginning to end. I highly recommend them and Dr. Albritton.

I have used Dr. Miller twice in the past, and since he has a reputation as the best shoulder surgeon in North Atlanta, I scheduled my reverse shoulder replacement surgery with him. He has assembled a great team of specialists. I found them to be experienced, friendly, caring and very helpful. His PA, Pete, has been his side-kick for many years and his experience was obvious. My shoulder is now pain free. Would I do it again? My answer is yes.

I cannot recommend Dr Michele T. Perez highly enough if you have back issues! First of all, the Kennesaw location for Resurgens is super convenient to get to. Lots of free parking, and a large office with multiple specialists. They have in-house X-ray facilities, so no going elsewhere if the doctor needs that kind of diagnostic. They are fast and efficient in seeing patients, billing, X-ray, and in every interaction I have had with them. Highly effective, and no waiting for my appointment! i have lower back orthopedic issues, which has changed over the 16 years I have had them. Dr. Perez is up to date on the latest treatments to manage pain and improve an injured back as much as possible.

Dr. Hall performed both my knee replacement and rotator cuff surgery. He did an excellent job. I would recommend him to anyone. Dr. Hall also does a lot of follow-up and explains everything clearly. He is an extremely pleasant and caring person and a great doctor.
