Dr. Harrison A. Latimer MD

I’m Dr. Harrison A. Latimer, an orthopedic surgeon specializing in sports medicine, based in Salisbury, North Carolina. I am affiliated with multiple hospitals, including UVA Health System Prince William Medical Center and Novant Health Thomasville Medical Center. With over 20 years of experience, I focus on diagnosing and treating musculoskeletal conditions, including sports injuries, degenerative diseases, tumors, infections, and congenital disorders, with a particular emphasis on joint repair and replacement surgeries. I earned my medical degree from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill School of Medicine and completed my residency in orthopedic surgery at the University of North Carolina Hospitals. To further specialize in sports medicine, I pursued a fellowship at the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic. Board-certified by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery, I hold an active medical license in North Carolina. My approach combines advanced surgical techniques with personalized treatment plans to help athletes and individuals regain mobility, recover from injuries, and improve overall musculoskeletal health.
