Hughston Clinic

Since we were founded in 1949, Hughston Clinic has sought to provide the most advanced orthopaedic services available to men, women and children of all ages and all walks of life. Today, Hughston Clinic comprises a number of leading institutions for the diagnosis and treatment of orthopaedic conditions, as well as orthopaedic research, education and training.

Orthopaedic services are offered under the Hughston Orthopaedic Clinic and include specialized practice areas in spine, hand, joint, sports medicine and trauma. These are, in turn, supported by Hughston Diagnostics, which provides ultrahigh-resolution imaging through a 1.5 Tesla GE MRI machine; Hughston Sports, a state-of-the-art exercise and training facility; and Hughston Rehabilitation, an advanced physical therapy facility providing focused care in four specialty departments: Orthopaedics/Sports Medicine, Spine, Upper Extremity/Hands and Industrial Medicine.
Hughston Orthopaedic Clinic also operates a network of nine orthopaedic satellite clinics in west central Georgia and east central Alabama.

Jack Hughston Memorial Hospital is a modern 70-bed, 110,000 square foot facility in nearby Phenix City, Alabama, comprising a full surgical suite, an eight-bed ICU, full-service diagnostic imaging department with a 64-slice CT Scanner, MRI, mammography, X-ray, ultrasound and nuclear medicine, and a 24-hour emergency services department receiving 30,000 visits per year. The Jack Hughston Memorial Hospital provides the Hughston doctors with another conveniently located facility where they can perform surgeries and other procedures.

The Hughston Foundation is a non-profit research and educational organization located on our campus in Columbus, Georgia. Founded in 1968, the Hughston Foundation is dedicated to helping people of all ages and skill levels by attaining the highest possible levels of musculoskeletal health, physical activity and work readiness by providing leadership in orthopaedic and sports medicine research education and communication, and by developing innovative concepts that help to advance the practice of orthopaedic surgery.
