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.

Very personable. Spoke in language we could understand. Felt confident in his diagnosis.
Dr. Horst has been exceptional in helping me with arthritis related hand issues & carpal tunnel. I highly recommend him!
Excellent
Dr, Horst was very responsive, returned all my calls in a timely manner and a fun positive attitude.
Dr Horst explained everything very well. He is pleasant and kind. Makes you feel comfortable. I would recommend him to anyone.
So informative and clear
I’ll start off by saying I rarely give reviews of anything, let alone anyone. But Dr. Horst deserves every bit of a positive review. Dr. Horst is a very down to earth type of guy and made a painful situation not so painful. I’m glad I found him.
Great hand doctor.
The best shot giver!!!
