Best Osteoarthritis of Hand Doctors in Golden Valley, MN

I am a plastic surgeon with fellowship training in upper extremity surgery, peripheral nerve surgery and microsurgery. My subspecialty expertise focuses on fixing broken bones of the hand and wrist, treating arthritis of the hand and wrist, and caring for nerve injuries, such as carpal tunnel syndrome. I also perform reconstructive surgery throughout the entire body. I enjoy plastic surgery because I can use my skills and creativity to improve people's quality of life. Patients are often referred because their problems are unique and challenging and require an individualized approach. I carefully listen to patients and partner with them to develop a treatment plan that is right for them.

You can expect a dedicated partner in your health. My first job is to listen to understand your lifestyle, perspective and goals. Next, I want to provide real knowledge so we can make decisions together, and ultimately achieve your goals.

Disorders of the hand and upper extremity affect those of all ages and negatively impact their quality of life. It is very rewarding to have a particular interest in and to perform surgeries on the hand and wrist that will help those afflicted return to activities that they enjoy. I also have a special interest in upper extremity trauma. Recreational activities that I personally enjoy include jogging, cycling, and hiking.
