If you have a condition that requires the expertise of a hand surgeon, turn to Tampa Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Group – a division of Florida Medical Clinic. Our practice in Tampa, Florida, is led by Dr. Daniel Murphy, a board-certified and highly experienced orthopedic surgeon.
The hand features an intricate structure of bones, ligaments, tendons, and muscles, and is almost constantly in motion. This leaves hands particularly susceptible to injury, whether by trauma (such as a crush injury) or overuse (such as years of typing on a keyboard). Common types of hand problems that may require the care of an orthopedic specialist or hand surgeon include:
- Tendon inflammation
- Tendon subluxation
- Joint dislocation
- Joint sprain
- Muscle strain
- Bone fracture
- Nerve compression
As a patient at Tampa Orthopaedic & Sports Medicine Group, you can be assured that Dr. Murphy will carefully evaluate your condition and recommend appropriate treatment options. Although he is an experienced orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Murphy takes a conservative approach to care that focuses first on relieving hand pain and dysfunction through non-surgical means. In the event that surgery presents the best chance for a full recovery, he will review your surgical options and may refer you to a hand specialist he trusts, if necessary.
