Specialized Orthopedic Care for Hand and Wrist Conditions
Hand and wrist pain can severely impact your quality of daily life, keeping you away from work or activities you enjoy. Gwinnett Medical Center’s board-certified orthopedic hand surgeons use state-of-the-art medical and surgical techniques to repair a variety of hand, wrist and forearm problems. Our goal is to reduce your discomfort and improve any restrictions to movement.
Where possible, our providers recommend non-surgical techniques first, including splinting, medication, activity changes, focused exercises and steroid injections. When these are not appropriate or have proven ineffective, your care team may recommend a more invasive option.
Surgical Interventions for Improved Hand and Wrist Function
Our highly-skilled surgeons have vast experience in providing a range of advanced surgeries, including:
- Carpal tunnel procedures
- De Quervain’s tenosynovitis surgery
- Fracture repair of the hand, wrist or forearm
- Ganglion cyst removal

- Replantation (reattaching a finger or thumb)
- Wrist arthroscopy
