Toby L’Estrange, New York, NY – ORIF distal radius fracture
I fractured my distal radius playing a game of rugby in June this year. It was a complicated injury due to the proximity of the fracture to the wrist and I was put in touch with Dr. Steve Lee and his team at the HSS. From the moment I saw Dr. Lee, I was completely at ease and fully confident in his advice to operate a few days later. I felt very lucky to be part of a methodical and efficient set up.

It all started with Tom and Jen in Dr. Lee's office. They were extremely friendly and helpful. It included very well prepared nursing and support staff prior to and following my operation. And of course, it included Dr. Lee's great skill to fix my wrist in a complicated procedure.

After 3 months of therapy to reestablish strength and movement in my wrist, I was cleared to start playing again. Two weeks later, I was lucky enough to make my international debut for the United States rugby team on their fall tour of Europe. I have no doubt that I owe a lot of this honor to Dr. Lee for his treatment. At all stages he and his team were exceptional and I would have no hesitations in recommending them to anyone who finds themselves in a similar boat.
