I shattered my pinky finger last year and had surgery to put in a plate and screws. My surgeon at Stanford recommended HOC, and I’m happy he did. I felt silly going to physical therapy for a pinky (I mean, “it’s just a pinky”, right?) but little did I know how important that little sucker is. But you are expected to know the drill as a patient and go through your exercises while you wait to have manual therapy. I appreciate the no-nonsense attitude of HOC therapists. I’m not a patient to be coddled, but to get out of there as fast as possible and back to regular life again.

If you have hand, arm, shoulder issues, I highly recommend Hands On Care.
