What's New?

At The Hand Center, every effort is made to offer the newest options for the care of hand problems. For example, Dr. Eaton was the first surgeon in Florida to perform pyrolytic carbon finger joint replacement surgery for hand arthritis.


The Hand Center was the first location in North America to offer the "Paris technique" Needle Aponevrotomy procedure for Dupuytren's contracture and remains the most experienced with this technique.


The Hand Center was the first location in Florida to provide "wide awake anesthesia" for painless hand surgery in the office. No skipping breakfast, no anesthesia hangover. At The Hand Center, having hand surgery is no more involved  than going to the dentist, and costs far less than the traditional surgery because it doesn't require a trip to a hospital or surgicenter. This breakthrough approach was reported here.


These are a few of the many innovative and unique approaches to care that are available through The Hand Center.
