Two Resurgens Orthopaedics Physicians Named Top Doctors in Atlanta by Lifestyles Magazine

Drs. Christopher Walsh and Kenneth Kress Selected as Top Docs by Peers

Drs. Christopher Walsh and Kenneth Kress of Resurgens Orthopaedics — Georgia's largest orthopaedic practice — were recently named Top Doctors in metro Atlanta by Lifestyles magazine. 

Dr. Walsh was named a Top Doctor for hand surgery, and Dr. Kress for orthopaedic surgery. 

"We're proud of Drs. Walsh and Kress,” said Resurgens co-president Dr. Kay Kirkpatrick. "All of our physicians take pride in giving patients the highest quality of care, and it's fulfilling to have that commitment to excellence recognized by other physicians." 

Lifestyles magazine surveyed doctors in Coweta, Fayette, Clayton, Henry, Carroll, and Douglas counties, and the cities of Vinings, Smyrna, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Marietta, Roswell, and Alpharetta, asking them to select a single local Top Doctor in each of more than 35 specialties. The results were published in the May/June 2010 issue of the magazine. 

Dr. Walsh practices at the Resurgens offices in Fayetteville (1336 Highway 54 W, Building 500; 770-461-1238) and Morrow (6635 Lake Drive; 770-968-1323). 

"It's an honor to be named a Top Doctor by my peers," said Dr. Walsh. "I'm committed to giving my best every day." 

Dr. Kress practices at the Resurgens St. Joseph’s office in Atlanta (5671 Peachtree Dunwoody Road, Suite 900; 404-874-9999). 

“We’re committed to continuing to bring the best possible care to our patients,” said Dr. Kress. “It’s gratifying to know that our fellow physicians realize that.” 

Dr. Walsh earned his medical degree from the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. He is certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, and is a member of the American Society for Surgery of the Hand and the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. In addition, Dr Walsh has a certificate of added qualification in hand surgery.
