Advanced Hand and Upper Extremity Care
The hands and wrists are involved in nearly everything we do, from picking up a glass of water to typing on a computer to throwing a baseball. Comprised of multiple small bones and intricate nerves, our hands and wrists are one of the most complex parts of the body and are often prone to overuse, injury and pain.
Hand and upper extremity conditions can range in complexity. Some issues can be resolved with physical therapy, while others may require surgery. Our hand and upper extremity experts are skilled in the most advanced surgical techniques for repairing injuries, correcting deformities and restoring function. We focus on minimally invasive procedures with a rapid return to work and athletics.
