The reviews listed below were collected independently of Greater Chesapeake Hand to Shoulder through rater8. Each review represents an authentic and verified patient experience.
He was curt and immediately told me that because he couldn't operate he couldn't do anything for me - within the first 3 minutes. He only answered my questions after I prodded and insisted he explain to me why this and why that. Initially he responded with "because my expertise is as a hand surgeon and because you don't need surgery I can't help you with your hand pain."
