About Corey Alexander Hamilton

Corey Hamilton, MD, is an orthopedic surgeon specializing in total joint replacement with Prisma Health. Originally from the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania, Dr. Hamilton has completed extensive training across multiple regions of the United States. He earned his undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia before attending medical school at Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia. He then completed his orthopedic surgery residency with University of South Carolina and Prisma Health, followed by advanced fellowship training in Chicago focused specifically on total joint replacement.

Dr. Hamilton specializes in the treatment of patients with debilitating arthritis of the hip and knee. His approach includes both operative and non-operative care, with a particular focus on hip and knee joint replacement procedures designed to help patients regain mobility and return to the activities that matter most to them.

A central aspect of Dr. Hamilton’s practice is building long-term relationships with his patients through continuity of care. He values collaboration in the treatment process, viewing each patient encounter as a partnership. Rather than prescribing a single course of action, Dr. Hamilton presents treatment options and works closely with patients to determine the path that best aligns with their goals and lifestyle.

Outside of his clinical work, Dr. Hamilton enjoys spending time outdoors. Living in South Carolina allows him to take advantage of the region’s natural beauty throughout the year, often hiking or spending time at the beach when he is not caring for patients.

    Everyone I met, From the lobby staff to the doctor, was kind courteous and helpful. My only complaint is that you're out door signage directs orthopedic patients to the side of the building with lots of handicapped Parking spots. That's terrific however, there is no side entrance to the building. All of us on canes and walkers were forced to Walk an extra distance to the front entrance. The layout for parking is unacceptable for those of us with mobility issues. This could easily be resolved with a side entrance.

    More information about the course of action. I personally understand now why the course of action was taken. I just wanted more information for my own satisfaction. After treatment I understand next steps more and the benefits that have addressed the symptoms. Outcomes should be considered somewhat significant in stopping pain.

    We waited over an hour to see the physician. My appointment was at two. We didn't get in to see them till almost four and we didn't get out till almost five. I think double booking and overbooking and postponement to all kinds of stuff is just ridiculous. If we're 15 minutes late, they cancel our appointments. If he's 15 minutes late, we should get money off of our bill or we should be able to cancel it.
