Archbold to Open Orthopedic Surgery Practice in Thomasville

Archbold will open an Orthopedic Surgery practice in Thomasville, offering another cutting-edge and locally-operated option in orthopedic services to the community.

Archbold Orthopedics, an Archbold Medical Group practice, will be located at 505 Gordon Avenue and is slated to open this November.

Orthopedic surgeon Nicholas Richardson, MD, will lead the new practice. Richardson attended medical school at the Medical College of Georgia in Augusta. He completed a residency at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center in Chattanooga, followed by a fellowship at the Institute for Foot and Ankle Reconstruction at Mercy Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. He is board-certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgery.

“I am excited to bring up-to-date operative and non-operative care to Thomas County and the surrounding region,” Richardson said. Archbold Orthopedics will offer treatment for general “pain and strains,” arthritis, sports injuries, and fractures and will offer robotic-assisted joint replacement, he added.

“We have witnessed an increased need for orthopedic services in our region, and we are excited to open Archbold Orthopedics to better serve our patients,” said Brock Dockery, Vice President of Archbold Medical Group.

The addition of an Archbold-led orthopedic surgery practice further extends Archbold’s region-leading orthopedic focus. Archbold is proud to offer patients cutting-edge orthopedic treatments and advanced imaging capabilities.

Richardson joins more than 80 physicians employed by Archbold Medical Group in a wide variety of specialties. Archbold Medical Group is affiliated with Archbold with primary care and specialty practices conveniently located throughout southwest Georgia.
