Dr. Lattisha Bilbrew is an Orthopaedic surgeon who specializes in Hand and Upper Extremity surgery and the first Black women Orthopaedic Surgeon to become a partner at Resurgens Orthopaedics in Atlanta, GA.
Dr. Bilbrew was born in Birmingham, England as were her parents. Her grandparents were farmers in Jamaica and migrated to England shortly after World War II. Only one generation removed from farming in the mountains of Trelawney and cleaning hospital bed linens in England, Dr. Bilbrew became the first physician in her family. Her motivating catalyst for becoming a physician was watching the mistreatment of her grandmother in an English hospital. Though her first observation of a hospital setting was witnessing racial disparities within a health care system, she was determined to be the antithesis of the physicians she observed.
