WHAT IS THE MISSION OF
ORTHOGEORGIA?
We strive to provide quality, compre-
hensive health care to our surrounding
communities. We utilize a team-centered
approach to treat our patients through
every step of the process. The mission
of our Bone Health Clinic is not just to
treat osteoporosis and associated fragility
fractures, but also to comprehensively
screen patients with known osteoporotic
risk factors before fractures can occur.
HOW DO YOU IMPROVE LIVES?
It is currently estimated that 1 in 2 women
and 1 in 4 men over age 50 will sustain one
or more fractures due to osteoporosis.
OrthoGeorgia's commitment to provide
comprehensive bone health to the patients
in our community allows us to treat oste-
oporosis and reduce the occurrence and
re-occurrence of osteoporotic fractures.
WHAT CHALLENGES DO YOU FACE?
One of the main challenges we encounter
is the lack of community awareness about
osteoporosis and poor bone quality. We
are working on educating our patients and
community on recognizing and preventing
fragility fractures and the risks for them.
WHAT ARE YOU MOST PROUD
OF? OrthoGeorgia is a comprehensive,
orthopaedic practice using the latest in
minimally invasive and robotic surgery. In
2018, OrthoGeorgia treated patients from
125 out of the 159 counties in Georgia.
