Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a painful condition that makes everyday tasks like typing, writing, and cooking difficult.
The symptoms range from numbness or tingling to radiating pain or weakness in your hand. Without treatment, the effects can be debilitating and leave permanent damage.

Affordable Orthopedic Surgery How We Save You Money
At The Hand to Shoulder Center in Fort Worth, TX, we are conscious of the high cost of healthcare. We have taken several steps to make orthopedic care more financially accessible to our patients, including offering payment and financing options to patients without insurance or with high deductibles. Other steps we take to reduce the cost of treatment include:
CareCredit®
We accept financing through CareCredit for all of our orthopedic procedures. CareCredit is a third-party lender that works similarly to a credit card company, but specifically for medical treatment. Our office staff is happy to help you navigate this process.
Ambulatory Surgery Centers
To avoid exorbitant hospital costs, we perform advanced orthopedic surgery at ambulatory surgery centers. These modern centers are specifically designed to support outpatient surgical procedures and they allow us to provide the same level of care as a hospital at a fraction of the cost.
In-Office Orthopedics
For less advanced conditions like carpal tunnel or trigger finger, our orthopedic surgeons can operate in our Fort Worth, TX, office for even less than the cost of going to a facility. When you meet with one of our physicians for a consultation, they will discuss with you what location will be best suited for your needs.
