Since 1982,
The Roderique Centre for Hand and Upper Extremity Surgery has
specialized in treatment of Workers' Compensation injuries to
the hand and upper extremity. Approximately 90 percent of the
patients treated at The Roderique Centre have sustained work-related
injuries. The majority of patients are from the greater metro-Atlanta
area, but many come from outlying areas throughout Georgia.
The primary
goal of The Roderique Centre is to provide the highest quality
care of the hand and upper extremity. To accomplish this, not
only are there spacious well-equipped treatment rooms, but there
is also an efficient hand therapy center as well as a technically
advanced surgical suite designed specifically for surgery of the
hand and upper extremity. Whether the problem is a simple laceration
or a more severe injury involving lacerated tendons and nerves,
fractures or dislocations of the hand, forearm, or shoulder, The
Roderique Centre renders quality care aimed at restoring the extremity
to its pre-injury level of function as quickly as possible.
Dr. Jim W.
Roderique is a Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeon with Added
Qualifications in Surgery of the Hand. He is very experienced
with Workers' Compensation issues such as early return to work,
lost time, and permanent impairment ratings. In legal circles,
Dr. Roderique is well-known for his forthright, honest, and unwavering
testimony when deposed.
Dr. Roderique
and his surgical staff are on call 24 hours a day to treat any
emergency that may arise. When injured employees visit The Roderique
Centre, they are evaluated by a hand surgeon who remains the primary
care provider throughout the entire course of treatment. This
assures a correct diagnosis and proper treatment from the onset,
continuity of care, rapid recovery, optimal outcomes, early return
to work, and cost-containment.
