Hand Trauma

Information

I perform a wide range of hand trauma procedures in my clinical practice. I work closely with hand therapists and much of the recovery in these cases is as much to do with therapy as it is with the surgery. The broad areas of my practice include, fractures, tendon injuries, nerve repair and all aspects of soft tissue reconstruction including replantation and revascularisation.

 

I have edited a textbook on Hand Trauma published by Thieme and I have pioneered many new techniques in hand trauma surgery. I have published numerous articles in this field.
