Hand and wrist

We undertake a number of different types of hand and wrist surgery, including those to treat conditions caused by trauma, osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, carpel tunnel syndrome, and Depuytren’s contracture.

Hand and wrist surgery takes place at our York and Bridlington sites, and some minor surgery is undertaken in our outpatients department at the Clifton Park outpatients department in York.
