Klamath Orthopedic Clinic and Sports Medicine
Hand & Wrist Care
Your Hand & Wrist, Our Focus
The hand and wrist are made up of intricate systems of bones, joints, and tendons, working together every day. Because they’re so essential to daily life, specialized care is required when injuries occur. At Klamath Orthopedic, we prioritize the least invasive treatments first and turn to surgery only when necessary. Our physicians are experts in minimally-invasive techniques, including arthroscopic surgeries and endoscopic carpal tunnel release, designed to reduce pain and speed up recovery.
Hand & Wrist Conditions we treat
The hand and wrist are complex, requiring specialized care when injured. We treat a variety of conditions, including carpal tunnel syndrome, fractures, arthritis, and sports-related injuries. Our approach focuses on using the least invasive treatments first, with surgery as a last resort.
