Join us in celebrating Dr. Thornsberry for 30 years of exceptional orthopedic care in Middle Georgia!

From helping athletes return to the field, to guiding patients safely back to work, to mentoring future medical professionals — Dr. Thornsberry's impact runs deep.

He was the first orthopedic surgeon in Central Georgia certified to perform Robotic Arm-Assisted Knee Surgery (MAKO) for knee resurfacing. His clinical expertise, innovation, and leadership have helped OrthoGeorgia continue to thrive.
