Hand & Upper Extremity

HandOur physicians that perform hand and upper extremity surgery have particular expertise in the operating room. If it is at all possible, they prefer non-surgical solutions. If surgery is the right solution, the Bone and Joint Institute physicians have the training and skill you can be confident in.

Our hands work for us daily - reaching, touching, holding and feeling. The muscles, bones and joints of the upper extremity typically operate in a wonderful harmony that we rarely notice. The freedom of movement and function that we normally enjoy is made possible by a very intricate system of elegant, supple and powerful living tissues. Unfortunately, injury and disease can occasionally produce pain, deformity and dysfunction.

At the Bone and Joint Institute, we have a dedicated team of regional experts whose primary goal is to serve our patients with hand and upper extremity disorders. Injury prevention strategies, medications, bracing, injections, corrective surgery and comprehensive rehabilitation are all part of the service we offer to our patients. Improving the body's function can restore quality of life allowing people to enjoy their work, recreation and leisure activities.

The Bone and Joint Institute is committed to future ongoing excellence in research, healing and education. As the area's leader in musculoskeletal care, we continue to build partnerships and trust with our patients and communities. From carpal tunnel syndrome to arm replantation, we have the compassion and expertise to meet your needs.
