Most of our daily tasks require us to use our hands and arms. Each part of our upper extremities—spanning from the fingers and wrists to forearms, elbows, and shoulders—performs vital functions that often go unnoticed until there is pain or stiffness.

When it comes to injuries and conditions in your upper extremity, you deserve to know about the causes and treatments for your limitation. At Carolina Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Center, we are dedicated to providing you with the information to ensure you make the right care decisions for you. Furthering that focus, we developed our Online Guide to Hand & Upper Extremity Care to assist your healthcare journey.

Board-certified and fellowship-trained hand and upper extremity surgeon Dr. Parag Phadke has devoted his practice to specializing in all hand and upper extremity care. He offers patients a wide range of treatment options for their injuries and conditions, aiding them in regaining control and mobility.

In addition, board-certified, specialty-trained orthopaedic experts Dr. Erik Johnson, Dr. Christopher Prato, and Dr. H. Clayton Thomason are dedicated to providing high-quality shoulder and elbow care to help you return to the activities you love.

Our doctors are committed to upholding the highest standards of patient-centered care. This involves collaborating with you to ensure a thorough and accurate diagnosis of your condition or injury and then creating a treatment plan suited to your specific needs.
