1 star is too many!!!
STAY AWAY! Same Doctor, new clinic, SAME CARELESSNESS!
I was referred to Dr. Langer for a hip problem. After sitting in the waiting room for 45 minutes, followed by a cold exam room for another 30 I was taken to xray, returned to the cold room for another 15 minutes before Dr. Langer came in handed me his cell phone and said watch this video. He stepped out of the room and came back when the video was over. «any questions»? I should have run then… but I didn’t. I had corrective surgery for FAI and CAM. He hardly spoke to me the morning of the surgery– seemed like he was put out that he had to be there. HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!
Due to the fact that he was the doctor who did my hip repair, I returned to his office due to bad pain at the surgical site 6 months later. With a pat on the back, and an «assessment» by his assistant who told me that he wasn’t sure what the Dr. wanted to do for me I was given my folder and sent on my way.
Still in pain, I changed doctors. I called for my medical records and was told that Dr. Langer was no longer with the practice. He pretty much fell off the earth…
I was 40 when I had my first surgery by Dr. Langer. I was 41 when I decided that I could no longer handle the debilitating pain and had a total hip replacement.
Dr. Langer has resurfaced at this practice. RUN AWAY (IF YOU CAN)

Dr. Phillip Langer diagnosed me with FAI and performed hip arthroscopy. After surgery I was in debilitating pain and unable to walk. Six months later I had to have a total hip replacement. Two surgeons have since reviewed my records and confirmed I never had FAI, Langer shaved my femur in the wrong place and released muscles that should have never been touched. I have met five former patients of his who have had the same issues. Shortly after my surgery Dr. Langer disappeared and the practice (Atlanta Sports Medicine) went into foreclosure. Approximately one year later he re-​appeared in Atlanta at Ortho Sport & Spine.
