Hand and upper extremity services
Our specialists understand the importance of providing comprehensive orthopedic care to help improve the lives of those that seek our care.
Noninvasive treatments
Our orthopedic specialists always take the least invasive approach to treatment, beginning with the most conservative options. We treat fractures and other injuries with nonsurgical care, as well as injections of steroids in the shoulder and hand, to decrease pain and swelling.
Surgical hand and arm care
If your pain persists after nonsurgical treatments, your doctor may recommend surgery. Our orthopedic surgeons treat fractures with shoulder replacement surgery and other surgical care with advanced medical technology, allowing you to heal quicker with less scarring.
After surgery, your surgeon may suggest further care, such as physical therapy, to restore strength and mobility and ensure you heal at the right pace.
