More about Dr. Carrie Swigart, MD

In my hand surgery practice I see all age groups for a wide variety of hand, wrist, and elbow conditions. Conditions that I treat regularly include degenerative and inflammatory arthritis, tendon disorders, nerve compression syndromes, congenital differences, and traumatic injuries. I believe in engaging the patient as an active participant in their recovery whenever possible. For many conditions surgery is not required. Other treatments may include hand or physical therapy, custom splinting or casting, or injection of a steroid preparation. I will make recommendations, but the patient always has the most important input on treatments decisions. If you have an urgent need, please call us directly at 203-737-5656.
