Most excellent! Dr Rao removed a couple of arthritic bones from my wrist. I could not have had a better outcome. Two years later my hand feels virtually normal, very minimal loss of function and near zero pain!

What’s a board certification and why is it important that my provider has one?

A board certification represents a provider’s dedication to ongoing training in one or more specialties, including the completion of intensive exams. While not all specialties have board certifications, if your provider does have one they’ve taken the extra step to master their specialty and to keep up with the latest advancements in their field.
