Our goal in caring for employees is to get them healthy and back to work as soon as possible. Our physicians bring their board-certified experience in musculoskeletal performance and recovery to their philosophy and care of employees. Having noticed a correlation in their extensive experience in treating athletes (sports medicine) and injuries and treatments typically encountered by employees, our physicians recently prepared and presented a seminar for employers entitled "The Industrial Athlete: A Sports Medicine Approach."

Georgia Bone and Joint takes full advantage of its partnership with The Summit Healthplex, a comprehensive health and wellness center in Newnan and its in-house, full-service medical practices: outpatient surgery, rehabilitation, occupational medicine, urgent care, internal medicine, medical imaging, fitness, and a pharmacy. At the Summit, our physicians perform outpatient surgery in the Summit Orthopaedic Surgery Center. We also work seamlessly with the professional therapists at the Georgia Rehabilitation Center, the physicians at Summit Occupational Medicine, and the wellness trainers at the Summit YMCA. In addition to our Summit location in Newnan, our physicians and the therapists of Georgia Rehabilitation Center also treat patients at our offices in the Fayette Medical Clinic, and Summit Occupational Medicine also has an office in Peachtree City.

Georgia Bone and Joint's physicians have a well-deserved reputation as experts in Workers' Compensation, appearing on the human resources panels of dozens of industries of every size throughout our region. In addition to our physician's experience and seamless access to other necessary wellness services, we provide one other service that rates very highly with companies and human resources managers: we provide a single point of contact for case management who tracks every aspect of each case for the employee/patient, the employer, and insurance adjusters.

For questions about Workers Compensation, please call our Workers Compensation Coordinator, Kathy Nelms, at (770) 502-2152
