Originally from Pennsylvania, Boston became my second home when I attended Tufts University. After earning my MD at the Tufts School of Medicine, I spent 6 years at the Medical University of South Carolina training in orthopaedic surgery. I returned to Boston for Fellowship training in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery at the Massachusetts General Hospital. There, I saw a tremendous breadth of conditions affecting adults and children. My particular surgical interests include hand, wrist and elbow arthritis as well as bone and soft tissue trauma in the upper extremity. I have excellent experience and training in both open and arthroscopic treatment methods. I also have a particular interest in peripheral nerve disorders, including compression syndromes such as carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome, and have a large amount of experience with peripheral nerve repairs and grafting. When indicated, I always try to implement non-operative treatment methods before resorting to surgery.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling, swimming, running, and photography.

Pleasant, professional, answered all questions, on time.
He moves really fast so the visit feels very abrupt. He can be slightly adversarial.
He was in a rush.
very personable and competent! I had two successful treatments with him and would happily return if need be.
Dr.Horst is professional and knows his stuff. He's easy to talk to and understand.
The best of the best
He’s great. Friendly and very easy to talk to. Excellent at his job.
Dr. Horst is a wonderful, calm, and caring practitioner. He made an awful situation feel so much less scary and even managed to make me laugh along the way. His reassuring manner truly put me at ease and took so much of the fear out of dealing with an injury. I’m very grateful for the care he provided!
Dr. Horst explained everything very nice nicely and shared my x-rays so I could see what was going on. He was very pleasant and easy to talk to.
Dr Horst Is the best I highly recommend him
