This entire office runs like a well oiled machine! Dr.Adam Starr is a TOP NOTCH surgeon. My left pinkie finger was totally curled under and locked. I couldn’t even wear a glove. After Dr Starr operated, I have a totally straight finger! I now have a fully functional hand. I can not say enough good things about this surgeon. I will be returning to him in a couple of months for surgery on my right hand. I wouldn’t think of going anywhere else. AND, to top it all off, he has a great bedside manner. Very friendly person!

Dr. Starr is an amazing physician who suggested something nott require surgery &extra money in his pocket, but allowed me to keep movement in my finger &allowed me to play piano. That is a dr who goes way above&beyond what is necessary. Dr. Star was recommended by someone else who believed in him as a Christian. I will certainly get in contact with that friend and let him know he was spot on accurate. The reason for visit to Dr. Starr was abuse.by husband. My finger may never be straightened due to that abuse, but Dr. Starr provided the answer I needed to strengthen my crooked finger &.allow me to play piano. Husband trying to destroy my ability to play piano, because he was angry after my mother-in-law heard me play first time. Tony in desert storm &his mom told him not only that he should get me pisno but also his uncle would want to play guitar w me. That happened. Tony hated, was jjealous & tried to destroy ability. Thanks Dr Starr. U R a treasure 4 suggestion 2 delay surgery! MC!

Having had my finger checked about a year ago by another doctor, there was no comparison. Adam was terrific with explaining what was taking place in my hand due to arthritis. Actually, I never had xrays done a year ago. So, right there is a difference. I also had more careful explanation of a trigger finger and what was exactly happening in my hand.

Dr. Starr is a fantastic doctor. He listens to your needs and he gives you the best medical care you can get. I had tunnel carpal surgery on both hands done by him. As well as him helping me with a hand injury from a car accident. I highly recommend Dr. Starr as well as this organization.

Dr.Starr has preformed trigger thumb surgery on both my hands and they are doing great!! Most doctors that I have been to before, always seem to be in a hurry to get in and out of the room. Dr.Starr will sit and listen to you and will even joke around with you!!! He makes you feel very comfortable and not so nervous! I love him to death and would recommend him to anyone and would definitely go back to him if I had more issues with my hands!

Dr. Adam Starr has been great from start to finish. With each surgery he explained everything to my wife and I, taking pictures and showing us how it all turned out. He even gave my wife his cell phone number if she had any questions or concerns. I was worried about losing my finger, but Dr. Starr saved it! Thank you so much for everything you have done for me.

Dr. Starr has been amazing. He is professional, warm, and compassionate. After seeing 2 other doctors who were not able to help, it was such a relief to find Dr. Starr who immediately recognized the severity of my injury. He has been so good to explain everything.

I cannot say enough about Dr. Adam Starr. Honestly, I had given up on a fix for my hands (2 completely different issues) after 3 less than successful surgeries. When I met Dr. Starr, I knew instantly that I was in good hands (yes, the pun was intended). I felt at ease and confident. I am healing remarkably well after surgery, despite not being the easiest patient. He is a phenomenal doctor/surgeon. And, yes, he is extremely funny...almost as funny as I am! DR. STARR IS MY SUPERHERO!!!

Dr. Starr is great. Spent ~40 minutes with me answering all my questions and going over the options to deal with my wrist/thumb issues. I was all prepared to schedule surgery to get pain relief. After an evaluation and experimenting with several non-invasive procedures, Dr. Starr recommended a non-surgical option. Imagine that, a surgeon recommending a non-surgical option. This doctor practices medicine as it should be done, i.e., with his patients' best interests in mind. Highly recommend him and his staff!
