Patient Reviews
Mar 16, 2024
Dr. Schlenker performed surgery on my finger and hand in 1992 and again on my finger in 1993. I can honestly say that after 32 years since my surgery, I have 99% mobility and all feeling came back as well....everything works great! I also want to mention that my results didn't happen overnight. It took years of continually working with my hand and finger to break up scar tissue that constantly built up, doing lots of stretching exercises over the years. Dealing with lots of pain & aches and waiting for the nerves to hopefully grow back so the numb-hypersensitive feeling would go away and my finger would go back to normal, which it eventually did.
