THE POWER OF STRETCHING | Did you know that a few minutes of stretching can make a world of difference in your game?

Don't forget the power of stretching before your next tee time. Here's why:

• Flexibility Boost: Stretching warms up your muscles, making your swings smoother and more powerful.
• Injury Prevention: Limbering up reduces the risk of strains and sprains, keeping you in top form on the course.
• Improved Performance: A limber body means better posture and alignment, leading to more accurate shots and longer drives.

Tee off with confidence and conquer the course!

If you do sustain an injury while on the course, our experts are here to get you back into the swing of things! Call (404) 341-6651 to schedule an appointment with one of our experts.

HAND ARTHRITIS 🖐 | Did you know that arthritis doesn't just affect the big joints? It can also impact the delicate bones and tissues of our hands, causing discomfort and challenges in daily tasks.

💡 What is it? Arthritis of the hand refers to inflammation and stiffness in the joints, making movements like gripping, writing, or even buttoning a shirt difficult.

🤚 Symptoms: Look out for pain, swelling, stiffness, and reduced range of motion in your fingers and thumb. Early detection can lead to better management!

🛠️ Management: While there's no cure, treatments like medications, hand exercises, splints, and lifestyle adjustments can improve quality of life.

If you are suffering from any of these symptoms, you can be confident that our hand specialists will treat your individual needs with the highest level of expertise. Call (404) 341-6651 to schedule your appointment!

DOCTOR SPOTLIGHT | “Our daughter Hannah has been a patient of Dr. Peljovich for almost 16 years. She saw him for the first time shortly after her birth. I remember sitting in the exam room with Hannah in my arms as a newborn, being terrified of what was to come. Dr. Peljovich being a parent, understood my anxiety and was reassuring in everything he explained to us. He completed 3 surgical procedures on her hands and continued to follow her progress and growth for many years. Last summer, Dr. Peljovich told Hannah that she was pretty much done and unless she wanted him to tweak something, she had officially graduated. It was a joyous and sad appointment all at the same time. Our daughter is amazingly functional and happy, and we never regretted our decision to allow Dr. Peljovich to treat her. He will always hold a very special place in our hearts as a surgeon and a great man." –Julie T.
