Your hands and
elbows are needed for everything you do. Getting out of
bed. Opening doors. Eating. Shaking hand. Working. When
they hurt or are injured, you don’t want to compromise
when it comes to selecting a doctor. You want a doctor
with advanced fellowship training in hand and upper
extremity problems. The Hand Service has the doctor that
provides the specialized care you can depend on.
