Hand surgery for the full range of conditions.
Carpal tunnel to complex nerve repair — Dr. Steffen treats the conditions that affect the hands patients rely on every day.
Your hands are how you work, hold your people, and move through your day. When something isn't right — numbness, catching fingers, weakness, or injury — Dr. Steffen offers the full range of hand surgery, from carpal tunnel release to complex nerve repair, with insurance coverage for most procedures.
Hand surgery is part of Dr. Steffen's reconstructive practice, and an area he's been published on. His fellowship included a study on progressive surgical autonomy in a hand surgery resident clinic (Journal of Surgical Education), and his early research on thumb basal joint arthritis was supported by a $40,000 University of Missouri grant.
