Dr. Alexandra Burgar treats conditions affecting the bones, muscles, nerves and tendons of the hand, wrist and arm up to and including the elbow. She performs arthroscopy and micro-vascular surgery for a wide range of problems, including fracture care, congenital disorders in infants, carpal tunnel problems in adults, and sports-related injuries for all ages.
Dr. Burgar has written a number of articles and abstracts that have been published in many journals, including the Journal of Orthopedic Trauma.

Dr. Burgar developed her interests in medicine and orthopedic surgery from her widely divergent family history. This history includes the fields of engineering, carpentry, biological sciences and fashion and art design. She chose her course in hand surgery because of the broad range of injuries and problems, diverse range of patients, and multiple treatment options in a highly specialized field. Dr. Burgar has a particular interest in traumatic injuries to the hand, pediatric hand deformities, and sports related injuries. Outside her orthopedics specialty and sub-specialties, her interests include gardening, sewing, watching movies, running and going to sporting events.

She was able to give me some information I was very helpful during my visit and was very responsive with the appointment process as opposed to my prior orthopedic specialist
Really nice and knowledgeable doctor!
Very nice and considerate and explained everything
Excellent doctor, very competent and extremely professional!
Very strong work history in her specialty. Very good communicator,
Dr. Brugar is amazing! Her PA, not so much. She doesn't know what she is doing and has a terrible touch when examining patients hands. I don't trust her evaluation and I prefer to just see Dr. brugar.
She’s a marvelous doctor
Explains everything very well. Answers all your questions. Very compassionate and patient.
Dr. Burgar is very personable and friendly. She provided patience and caring during my appointment. She took time to listen to my concerns & came up with the next plan of action for my health condition. Thank you!
I thought the visit was helpful but I do not agree that I have arthritis. I was injured at work due to over use in a way that could have been avoided. I think I need to see how this evaluation goes.
