Hand, Wrist & Elbow

The hand and wrist are made up of a complicated network of bones, tendons, muscles, ligaments, nerves and blood vessels. Wrist and hand problems are common and can result in pain, numbness, loss of movement and impaired function. Common hand and wrist issues include carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, ganglion cysts, fractures, trigger finger and traumatic injuries to ligaments, tendons and bones. Common elbow conditions include tendinitis, an inflammation or injury to the tendons that attach muscle to bone, as well as sprains, strains, fractures, dislocations, bursitis, arthritis and more.

At OPA, the goal of treatment is to restore pain-free function and allow you to return to normal activities as soon as possible. OPA is home to some of Alaska's leading hand surgeons with fellowship training in hand and microvascular surgery. All of our hand surgeons have experience in the highly skilled and precise surgical techniques required to treat hand and wrist problems effectively.
