I broke my wrist years ago and I had torn some cartilage at the time but thought it had healed until recently it has been giving me all kinds of problems. Because of this I would like to go see a good hand specialist but I do not know of any in the area. Anyone had to use one before and have a recommendation?

Thanks in advance

i went to triangle orthapedics when i broke my hand and they sent me to someone for rehab. i was happy and went back when i broke my foot. i cant remember what the name of the other company was, but it was right off glenwood near the beltline.

a few months back I needed some nerve related surgery done on my hand, and I went to Scott Levin at Duke. He is the man.

These guys fucking blow. They just wanna cut you up.

I'll second Raleigh hand, they were awesome. I had to get my elbow looked at and the guy was really good.
