Chatham County — North Carolina’s Next Growth Frontier
Chatham County is undergoing one of the most significant development transitions of any county in North Carolina. Chatham Park — a 7,000-acre master-planned community near Pittsboro — is described as one of the largest mixed-use developments in American history. The nearby Apple Data Center campus and growing light manufacturing base are bringing thousands of new workers and residents to a county that has historically been rural and underserved for specialist medical care.
Chatham County patients currently have no fellowship-trained hand surgeon close to home. Raleigh Orthopaedic’s Raleigh and Holly Springs offices are approximately 35–40 minutes from Pittsboro, and telemedicine first visits mean Chatham County patients can get a diagnosis and treatment plan without the round trip for an initial consultation.
As Chatham Park grows from hundreds to thousands of residents and the Apple campus and associated employers bring new workers to the area, demand for specialist hand and upper extremity care in Chatham County will grow significantly. Dr. Chambers is already serving Chatham County patients and offers telemedicine as a practical first step for the Pittsboro community.
