In our office, we are happy to offer a personalized approach to upper extremity conditions. I offer the latest techniques for traumatic injuries. Many non-traumatic conditions I manage non-operatively with customized treatment plans that includes home exercises and often with the assistance of therapists.
In terms of surgical techniques, I offer many that are relatively unique to me and my practice. I have a strong focus on endoscopic, arthroscopic, and limited incision techniques. I feel these can deliver superior results compared to those that can be obtained through “traditional” techniques. These rely on large incisions, with concomitant tissue trauma and requiring extended rehabilitation.
​
​
Conditions that I use these techniques for include:
-
Carpal tunnel syndrome at the wrist
-
Cubital tunnel syndrome at the elbow
-
Wrist and carpal bone fractures
-
Wrist arthritis
-
Elbow tendonitis
-
Elbow arthritis
-
Shoulder pain due to impingement
-
Shoulder pain due to rotator cuff tendinosis
-
Trigger finger
-
Wrist tendonitis
-
Basal joint thumb arthritis
-
Distal biceps tendon ruptures at the elbow.

In terms of Dupuytren’s contractures, I offer xiaflex collagenase injection treatments in the office, as well as open surgical techniques that I think are maximally effective for more advanced cases of contracture.
I have X-ray imaging via fluoroscopy and soft tissue imaging via ultrasound right in my office. We look forward to providing care for you.
