“Doctor and staff listened, heard what I said. Then after exam and X-rays we discussed action plan. I was in agreement with both his findings and his approach. Was given first treatment that day and follow up visit already scheduled.”

Dr. Dhawan is very nice polite and knowledgeable doctor. He was very detail oriented about both of my hand procedures, my right hand was regular surgery and left was orthoscopic. If I had any concerns or questions before surgery he addressed them in timely manner. I couldn’t ask for a better hand surgery. I recommend him highly. Thanks to his staff and team. They made me comfortable & welcomed!

I suffered a very serious hand injury with two fractures in two of the hand bones. My recovery has been much better and sooner than expected. Dr. Dhawan was very clear in his communication as to what to expect. He was very considerate of my condition empathetic and highly recommended as a fit. I am very pleased.
