Upper Extremity Conditions and Injuries

The shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand work together to give you the strength and range of motion needed for everyday tasks and the activities you enjoy. When pain or injury affects any of these areas, even routine movements can become difficult. Our fellowship-trained specialists are experienced in evaluating and treating the full range of upper extremity conditions, using both nonsurgical and surgical approaches tailored to each patient's individual needs and goals.
