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

Patients Trust Our Atlanta Hip Doctors

I was very impressed with this practice from the minute I arrived at the reception desk. All of the staff (front and back were very personable and attentive). I was seen within 2 minutes of my appointment time and that was true for each area of the practice (nurse/asst, and X-ray). Dr. Ansari was prompt, attentive and willing to answer all my questions without making me feel rushed. I have and will continue to recommend this professional and caring practice.

Dr. Daftari is the best surgeon I could've have ever asked for. My case was a workmans comp case and Dr. Daftari fought very hard for me to get the treatment and surgery I desperately needed. We fought for a year and I finally received my surgery. I could not have imagined I would have felt this good so soon after my surgery. Thanks to him I'm now walking straight again and pain free. He is absolutely a doctor who cares about his patients!!

Very professional place. They actually treat you like a human, not a dollar sign. Very glad I made the choice to see Dr. Perez and then Kenin in Physical Therapy, very nice and easy to talk to.

A foot injury from a high school car accident has been bothering me lately. Dr. K correctly diagnosed the problem and after a cortisone shot it has improved! Thanks!

As a chiropractor of over 30 years, I send many patients for spine surgery and I'm always looking for great surgeons. Dr Goins keeps up with the latest techniques and performs surgery only when it's in the best interest of the patient. He is tops on my list of trusted doctors

Dr. Julia Kao is incredible, she has a fantastic beside manor, professional, caring, thorough, and ensures that you are healing properly. My surgery was done outpatient, with an 8 cm. incision, she sent me home with everything I need! Also Rachel who is also amazing, made sure I had all prescriptions I needed, and was there to answer all my questions! I would highly recommend Dr. Kao and her staff!! They are the best!!

Doctor and staff outstanding. Very impressive surgery center.

Doctor Albert and his staff treated me very well, polite, on time, efficient, friendly. Had a procedure done from Dr. Albert’s request and now I am pain free. I would highly recommend Resurgens, Roswell.

Dr. Harvey is amazing! I have been living with chronic pain for 5+ years. I went to see him and he immediately diagnosed my condition as SI joint dysfunction. I am now 15 days post-op and virtually pain free after the iJoint surgery. He, along with his very talented staff have changed my life. Along with his mad skills, he is also a very genuine and compassionate person. I can tell he loves what he does. I now consider him my friend for life. Thanks Dr. Harvey!!!!

I was referred to this practice and Dr. Kim by Mayo Clinic in Jacksonville after three different Doctors in my area in TN had given me different diagnoses. It was way past time for some action on the problem and I was very happy with the care and professionalism. I am now going back for another irreverent joint even though it is quite a drive and needed to stay over post-op.
