More about Dr. Alonzo Sexton, MD

Dr. Alonzo Sexton has over 17 years of experience in sports medicine and orthopedic surgery. He believes that “our job is to help patients find what they've lost.” Whether that's getting them back to work, a sport they love, or even just being able to play with their grandkids, orthopedics is a specialty designed to improve quality of life. A huge part of what determines an individual's overall health are their behaviors (i.e., exercise, diet, and smoking). He believes we have an obligation to encourage our patients to live active lives and achieve the recommended levels of exercise (150 minutes per week). Dr. Sexton earned his bachelor's degree from Stanford University and his Doctor of Medicine from Emory University, where he also completed his residency in Orthopedic Surgery. He went on to pursue a fellowship in Sports Medicine at Lenox Hill Hospital. He serves as a second opinion physician for the NFL Players Association, was awarded the Castle Connolly Top Doc award in 2023, and has been team physician for the University of Georgia, Georgia State University, and Clark Atlanta University. He is passionate about technology, serving as a subject matter expert in blockchain technology and cryptocurrency. He also has a strong commitment to alleviating health disparities in communities in need. Dr. Sexton is ready to get to work to further the Genesis Ortho mission!
