Our Services

For more than 40 years, our surgeons and therapists have been treating patients with everything from hand to shoulder conditions. We support our patients through the entire care continuum with our comprehensive services:

Diagnostics and Evaluation

Through diagnostic testing and evaluations, our physicians are able to accurately diagnose and treat each patient’s condition or hand injury. At our clinic, our evaluations include neurological tests like Nerve Conduction Studies or NCS.

Through our partnership with Premier Extremities, we are able to provide MRI studies, relying on some of the most advanced equipment to produce detailed images. We also offer In-Reach extremity CT scans which deliver a 3D analysis of joint spacing and bone alignment.

Upper Extremity and Hand Surgery

If your condition requires surgery, we have a team of highly trained physicians ready to deliver exceptional care. Our hand surgeons in New Orleans specialize in all conditions involving the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder.

Therapy Center

Whether you’ve undergone surgery or pursued a non-surgical treatment plan, therapeutic treatment programs support your ongoing pain management and healing. Specifically, acute injuries and chronic conditions involving hand and upper extremity conditions benefit from this type of rehabilitation.
