When it comes to numbness, tingling, weakness, or unexplained pain, guessing isn't good enough. That's why our PM&R specialist uses advanced diagnostic tools like EMG (electromyography) and NCS (nerve conduction studies) to find the real source of your symptoms.

Here's how it works:
⚡️NCS measures how well and fast your nerves send signals
💪 EMG shows how your muscles respond to those signals

Together, these tests reveal whether your pain is coming from a nerve issue, muscle dysfunction, or another source, so we can create a treatment plan that's precise and effective.

We're proud to offer this advanced care with our new PM&R specialist, Dr. Bharara, who is seeing patients in our Cartersville office.

What is PM&R? 🤔

Short for Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, PM&R is a medical specialty focused on restoring function, relieving pain, and improving quality of life — without surgery.

Physiatrists treat a wide range of conditions affecting the muscles, nerves, spine, and joints. Whether you’re recovering from an injury, living with chronic pain, or facing mobility challenges, a physiatrist helps you move better and feel stronger.

We’re proud to welcome Dr. Aashish Bharara, a board-certified Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation specialist, to our team at Georgia Bone & Joint Surgeons — offering non-surgical solutions for spine pain.

After years of living with knee pain, she realized she didn't want it stealing any more of life's moments.
Moments with her grandkids. Time at the beach. The ability to move without hesitation.

With courage, commitment, and a care team that believed in her, she made an incredible comeback.

From those first post-surgery steps to walking on the beach, her determination never wavered.
