Patient Reviews
Sep 19, 2024
I was experiencing pain to my left wrist for years and NONE of the previous hand surgeons I saw were helpful neither in diagnosing nor resolving it, as they kept prescribing cortisone injections and physical therapy as bandaid. I am so grateful to Dr. Yao and his Team: he performed exploratory surgery on my wrist and discovered partial tears of two ligaments that hold the scaphoid and lunate bones together in the wrist -causing instability, weakness and pain in my wrist- and extensive synovitis in the area as a result of that -also cause of pain-. This is the kind of stuff that if left untreated for years could progress in a more serious tear or ablation of cartilage and joints causing arthritis. He performed endoscopically debridement of the ligaments and the inflammation plus thermal shrinkage to make the ligaments nice and tight again. I have my wrist back now! Thank you so much Dr. Yao!!
