Specialist in Hand Surgery, MD, PhD
I provide care for injuries, degenerative conditions, and functional disorders of the hand, wrist, and forearm. My goal is to safely and effectively restore your hand's function and relieve pain.
Common conditions treated include:
- Injuries, fractures, and post-traumatic conditions
- Nerve entrapments (such as carpal tunnel syndrome)
- Osteoarthritis and tenosynovitis (tendon sheath inflammation)
- Dupuytren's contracture
- Hand and wrist problems in patients with rheumatoid arthritis
Procedures:
In the clinic, I perform joint and soft tissue injections (e.g., corticosteroids). I also perform minor surgical procedures under local anesthesia, such as carpal tunnel release, tendon sheath releases, and percutaneous or open division/excision of Dupuytren's cords.
I have practiced medicine as MD since 2014, qualified as a specialist in hand surgery in 2023, and hold a PhD focusing on surgical patient safety. I have a day job as a hand surgeon at Päijät-Häme Central Hospital.
Please note: For shoulder issues, please book an appointment with an orthopedic specialized in shoulder surgery.
