James Hurt

Sports Medicine Physician and Orthopaedic Surgeon @Columbus Orthopaedic Clinic

Columbus, MS, US

My practice in sports medicine consists mainly of complex knee and shoulder injuries, cartilage restoration, and biologics, as well as injuries to the elbow, ankle, hip, and just about any joint or musculoskeletal injury that occurs. Sports, medicine, however, is more than just repair, reconstruction or fixation of injuries. It is making sure kids, teenagers, and athletes not only gets back to playing the game they love, but also making sure they are able to play with their own kids and grandkids one day. It\'s getting patients safely back to work so they can provide for their families. It\'s seasons, it\'s timing, it\'s changing plans and being flexible. It\'s more than just the injury. Sports medicine is the whole patient, their family, their job, their hobbies, their passions, and their futures. My passion is my patients and taking care of them, not just their injuries. I am approachable and available. I give my email and cell phone number to patients, because they shouldn\'t feel that they are alone. I love to operate; and if you need surgery, I will fix you. However, my hope is that I will not have to on you. Feel free to reach out!Jim Hurt MD Twitter: j••••@umc.eduCell: 50••••••46
