Introduction
Every day, we use our hands for all kinds of things -- working, playing, grooming, eating, even communicating with others. Just imagine trying to carry on a conversation without moving your hands..
People use their hands for almost everything. So when there's a problem with one of your hands, it can affect your entire life.
At Orthopaedics Northeast (ONE), we have devoted an entire division to the diagnosis, treatment, and rehabilitation of disorders of the hand, wrist, elbow and shoulder.

Meet the team that cares for you
At Orthopaedics Northeast and HandONE, we work together as a team, rather than as individual orthopaedic practices.
You'll find a comprehensive array of medical specialists -- anesthesiologists, surgeons, physiatrists, physical therapists and certified athletic trainers - all working together to determine the best possible course of treatment for each patient.

The Road to Recovery
Whether you're a surgical or non-surgical patient, you will be involved in a comprehensive rehabilitation program through HandONE. We offer a full continuum of care for our hand patients, including treatment for acute, subacute and chronic conditions, as well as work reconditioning.
Depending on your needs, your individualized rehabilitation program may include flexibility and strengthening exercises, hands-on treatment to improve soft tissue mobility, or posture and body mechanics training.
Throughout the rehabilitation process, your HandONE physician will work closely with physical therapists to monitor your progress. By the time you complete the program, you should not only be functioning better, but also have the knowledge and skills you need to avoid problems in the future.
