Dr. Yarborough is a terrific doctor! I feel blessed that a friend told me about him. I went to two other orthopedists and several other doctors who could not figure out what was wrong with my knees. Dr Yarborough diagnosed the problem on the first visit. I had my first surgery a couple of weeks ago and will have surgery on my other knee in a few months. The surgery went very smoothly and the Roswell Surgical center where the surgery was performed was also awesome.

I’m on my fifth experience with the professionals at Resurgens. They always take great care of me and I’ve had remarkable results for each type of situation—shoulders, hips, and collarbone. All my doctors have been very talented and first rate.
