Dr. Vamsi’s Three-Step Approach to Treating Hand Disorders

Precise Diagnosis

Dr. Vamsi uses clinical evaluation and imaging to identify the exact cause and severity of the disorder.

Targeted Treatment

He begins with non-surgical options like splints, therapy, or injections, and opts for minimally invasive surgery if needed.

Focused Recovery

A structured rehab plan ensures patients regain hand strength, flexibility, and daily function effectively.

Conditions Treated

Tennis Elbow
A painful condition caused by overuse of forearm muscles, leading to inflammation of tendons on the outside of the elbow.
Elbow Dislocation
Occurs when the bones of the forearm move out of place compared to the upper arm, often due to trauma, requiring urgent repositioning.
Elbow Instability
A condition where the elbow joint becomes loose or slips out of alignment, often after ligament injury, causing pain and reduced strength.
Fracture of Both Bones in Forearm
Involves breaks in both the radius and ulna, typically from high-impact injuries, needing surgical alignment for proper healing and function.
Ulnar & Radial Tunnel Syndrome

Compression of nerves around the elbow causing numbness, tingling, or weakness in the forearm and hand, often treated with decompression.

Arthritis

Degeneration of the elbow joint cartilage causing pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, commonly seen in rheumatoid or post-traumatic cases.

Elbow Replacement
A surgical procedure to replace the damaged elbow joint with an artificial implant, often used in severe arthritis or complex fractures.
Biceps Rupture
A tear of the biceps tendon near the elbow, often from lifting heavy objects, leading to weakness and requiring surgical repair for restoration.
