Purpose of Hand Surgery

Our purpose as hand surgeons is to perform surgery and use non-surgical methods to treat patients who have sustained injuries or who have chronic disabilities resulting from congenital deformities, previous injury, overuse, or arthritic conditions. A Hand Surgeon is a physician who has received specialized training in the treatment of all components of the hand and upper extremity, including the bones, joints, tendons, nerves, arteries, and skin.
