posted: Nov. 05, 2020.
Your hands are highly complex structures. They help you work, do hobbies, care for your family, play sports and music and so much more. You want them functioning well and comfortably. So does your hand surgeon in Grapevine, TX, Farmers Branch, TX, and Richardson, TX, Dr. Pedro Loredo. He and his staff at Loredo Hand Care Institute help hands do what they were designed to do.

Why should you see a Grapevine, TX, hand surgeon?
The American Society for Surgery of the Hand says that you should see a hand surgeon if you have persistent pain or dysfunction in the hand, wrist, forearm, or elbow. In other words, more conservative interventions for an acute or repetitive motion injury (work- or sport-related), arthritis pain, or deformity have proven ineffective. Pain continues or even worsens even when you are resting. Also, Dr. Loredo treats masses and cysts such as benign ganglion cysts, fatty lipomas, and others.
At Loredo Hand Care Institute in Grapevine, TX, we want your hands to operate as they should and to do so comfortably. Your hands, wrists, and forearms are complex, finely-tuned structures. Surgery requires the education, skills, and experience of a physician board-certified in surgery and the complexities of the hand. As your hand surgeon, Dr. Loredo also demonstrates excellent listening skills to hone in on your problem, and he has the compassion you need for a stress-free operation and recovery.
