A member asked:
Where do i find a hand specialist if i am concerned about arthritis, carpel tunnel or neuropathy?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Several specialist: The hand specialist would only be consulted if others felt surgery was needed. You would need to see either a rheumatologist or a neurologist who can sort this out for you. They would send you to the hand doctor in your region only if needed.
