The reviews listed below were collected independently of Carolina Hand & Sports Medicine through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
It was great to get in to see Dr. Lechner. He presented a thoughtful, helpful and informative discussion about the issues of an aging body and how that process was affecting my hands. The x-rays looked great, and I don’t need surgery, so I was extremely encouraged. He gave me very good tips on how I could strengthen my wrists through yoga, Pilates, and even lifting weights! I’m going back to the gym!

Dr. Lechner examined my hand and quickly diagnosed my problem. There was a painless one-time treatment and a follow-up appointment was scheduled. I was very pleased with the treatment I received from him.
