Stony Point, NY
Broken Wrist (Wrist Fracture)
Share this Story
I broke my wrist in three places, had to have surgery and a metal plate put in. The first doctor basically didn't care and ignored the fact that I wasn't getting better with therapy. In January 2010 I saw Dr. Weiland - he performed a second surgery and it was a big help. Followed that with three months of therapy and I am as good as I'm gonna get. I can't thank him enough.
He is a wonderful Dr. The staff and nurses that assisted were amazing too. I had a much better experience with HSS, then the hospital where I gave birth too my son. I always recommend HSS to everyone. Thank You Picture 1-is after my first surgery(not performed by Dr. W) Pictures 2 & 3 are after Dr. Weiland and therapy
