“I wanted to share my thoughts as I was driving home yesterday evening after spending a lovely Easter Day with my family. I had just spent the day cooking, cleaning up dishes, making Easter crafts and even playing basketball with my 12 yr old Grandtwins without once thinking about my right hand! The only discomfort I ever noticed was in the opposite thumb (catching the basketball) which still needs the surgery. It was a great day!
When I got home and sat down to relax I became very aware of the gift I had received from everyone at the Hand and Upper Extremity Center of Georgia. It was a tough few months but the outcome was well worth it!
Please share this with Dr. Lourie, the ortho techs, X-ray Techs and the OT's. I want them all to know just how much I appreciate everything that was done to help me get through this. The Hand and Upper Extremity Center is a well oiled machine from the moment you make your first phone call for a consultation to scheduling in the Rehab Department. Everybody does a top notch job and I appreciate every single person I came in contact with.
I'll be signing up for the other hand probably towards the end of summer.
Thank you all again. With much gratitude.”
