I was looking for a doctor that did the needle release procedure
[00:00:09.920]
for Dupuytren's contracture.
[00:00:13.480]
Actually, on the internet, I found Dr. Bates.
[00:00:16.200]
I had previously had an open hand procedure
[00:00:20.560]
on another finger, what I call zig-zag procedure.
[00:00:26.440]
I was looking for someone that did the needle release
[00:00:28.560]
because it's not as radical.
[00:00:30.960]
His staff were very helpful and he knew exactly what he wanted to do.
[00:00:38.560]
Of course, I haven't been through it
[00:00:40.240]
with having dealt with Dupuytren's contracture for years.
[00:00:44.040]
I knew a lot about it,
[00:00:47.960]
but I never had been to a doctor that did the needle release,
[00:00:51.960]
which Dr. Bates does.
[00:00:54.680]
I was very happy with him and his staff and everything.
[00:00:58.440]
When you have Dupuytren's contracture, it hinders your daily life.
[00:01:04.760]
When you get those figures straightened out
[00:01:06.320]
where they don't crook in like that, then it's a world of help.
[00:01:13.680]
You get your hand in your pocket where before maybe you couldn't,
[00:01:17.840]
so it helps a lot.
[00:01:20.800]
What impressed me about this practice in Dr. Bates and his staff
[00:01:24.040]
was they're very professional.
[00:01:27.960]
He knew exactly what he wanted to do, and it was very supporting,
[00:01:32.640]
instill a lot of confidence
[00:01:34.400]
when he talked about what he was going to do.
[00:01:36.320]
So I was very happy with that.
[00:01:38.160]
I certainly recommend Dr. Bates and his team to anybody
[00:01:41.240]
because they're very professional,
[00:01:45.160]
and instills a lot of confidence in what he's going to do.
[00:01:48.160]
Then during the procedure, very thorough.
[00:01:51.440]
So I was very happy.
