Why choose Sutter?

The hand, wrist and elbow are a complex system of 30 bones that require precise care when injured. Everyday activities like typing or texting can cause overuse injuries that may lead to hand, wrist and elbow discomfort. Sports, arthritis and accidents can also affect your function and mobility. Tennis elbow symptoms — pain on the outside of your elbow that worsens with grip or lifting — are easy to ignore until they aren't. However, there's no need to suffer through it. Our orthopedic specialists and hand doctors offer various treatment options to help repair damage, restore function and alleviate pain.
