Description

For over 20 years, I have enjoyed practicing specialized, patient-centered care. We help people of all ages understand their hand, wrist, forearm or elbow conditions, and assist them in choosing personalized treatment. I strive to understand which issues are important to you. In some instances, though you might have an abnormal test or X-ray, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you need surgery. We help patients with surgical and non-surgical specialty care, including hand therapy, exercises, medications, injections, splinting, and casting. Distal radius wrist fracture treatment and research is a special area of surgical expertise. While at the University of Minnesota, I invented, patented and developed the internal fixation plate and techniques for volar plating of the distal radius with Matthew Putnam, MD, and Charles Jennings, MD. Newer versions of our original plate are now commonly used by most hand surgeons in the USA to treat these common injuries. I have enjoyed teaching the beautiful intricacies of hand surgery to young doctors and hand therapists for over 20 years in the USA and abroad. As a founding board member of the Twin Cities Orthopedic Foundation, I am an active volunteer locally and in Nicaragua. Insurance reminder: individual plans may vary, and it is the patient’s responsibility to confirm that their provider is in-network.
