Carolina Hand and Sports Medicine

Avoid Christopher Lechner at all costs. I cannot possibly state this more clearly: if you have any choice, do not work with Dr. Lechner. He is fine until there is a problem and then he is terrible. I’m my instance over five years I have had a few trigger finger injections and two trigger finger surgical corrections done. Always rushed but never a problem. However, this year all has changed. He races you through appointments, seemingly trying to get you out the door in under ten minutes. I never had an appointment with him that went longer than that. If you have any questions for him or things that you're worried about, he will hurry you through your comments, sweeping almost everything you say under the rug in a desperate attempt to get out of the room as fast as possible. He seems to have no memory of the appointments he has had with you, consulting a mostly-blank piece of paper rather than his own brain. For example, today he said I see “Dr black blank blank operated on your hand”
