Non-Surgical Treatments We Offer
Many hand, wrist and elbow conditions can be treated successfully without surgery. Some of the advanced non-surgical treatment options we offer include physical therapy specifically for the hand and wrist, platelet-rich plasma therapy and injections.
Surgical Treatments We Offer
In some cases, surgery is the best treatment option. This is especially true for many traumatic injuries or congenital conditions. OhioHealth is a national leader in microsurgery. Using high-powered operating microscopes, microsutures and special surgical techniques, our surgeons can not only reattach severed body parts, but also repair the tiny blood vessels and nerves needed to recover the use of the reattached finger, hand or arm.
