Mar 10, 2025
I have had hand pain and weakness for years. Before seeing Dr Gerlach, I was previously told it was “just arthritis” and to live with my pain. Dr Gerlach listened to me and knew what was wrong almost immediately! After small surgeries for trigger finger and carpal tunnel, I am pain free and can sleep through the night! THANK YOU!!!
