Chatham Orthopaedic Associates, the oldest Savannah established orthopaedic practice in coastal Georgia, is proud to announce a partnership that is rapidly revolutionizing access to care for orthopaedic patients with acute injuries nationwide.
Established in the 1950s, we have grown to a practice of 15 physicians in Savannah, GA and surrounding areas of Richmond Hill, Pooler, Effingham County, Claxton, & Bluffton. Our team also includes highly skilled physician assistants, nurse practitioners, orthopaedic technicians, imaging professionals and physical, occupational, certified athletic trainers, and certified hand therapists. Our team of doctors utilizes the most advanced surgical techniques and rehabilitative protocols to provide patients with the finest care available to fit each patient’s unique needs, all while stressing the importance of communication and education between patient and physician. Results are clear. Our surgery center is recognized as a top orthopaedic facility in the country by Statista and our patient satisfaction scores 4.5 plus stars.
“Our practice’s goal is to assist patients in getting to the right provider for the right care at the right time, in the most cost-effective manner possible. This delivers on our promise of healthcare done right. Over the last decade we have collaborated with local and regional hospitals to ensure care is provided close to home. We have expanded our reach to area schools. We have extended our urgent care through ExpressOrtho. We are now pleased to be partnering with HURT! to continue our quest to provide rapid access for the community to high quality orthopaedic services. The Hurt! App allows individuals who are experiencing acute musculoskeletal injuries to get in touch with highly trained orthopaedic specialists immediately 24 hours per day / 7 days per week who will assist in triaging the patient and directing them to the best setting for their injury or condition. This often means reducing costs to our patients and communities we serve by avoiding expensive ER visits.” Dr. Mark Jenkins, Group President
