Due to the number of bones in human hands, hand surgery requires a specialized skill and expertise. Treatment is focused on alleviating pain and disability in the upper extremity as a result of common hand problems, such as:

  • Carpal tunnel syndrome
  • Trigger finger
  • Ganglion cysts
  • Arthritis
  • Fractures and broken bones
  • Tendon and ligament injuries

In addition, surgeons perform more complex procedures including wrist arthroscopy, finger joint replacements and rheumatoid arthritis surgeries.

Claire DeLoid of Carver, comments:

“I was in constant pain and could no longer use my hands to do the things I was accustomed to. Now, thanks to the expertise of Dr. Dina Galvin and the caring staff at Jordan, I have my lifestyle back.”
