Hand Pain

Nobuko Tange

Eight years after a stroke, I was introduced to Dr. Dan Zlotolow. The stroke had left my left side paralyzed and by now my left arm was locked in a 90 degree angle. Dr. Zlotolow performed 2 operations where removed the nerves from my arm and hand in 2022. At this point I am able to use my arm in a limited way. In May 2023, Dr. Zlotolow finished the process by removing a previously placed screw in my thumb and opening it up in a natural position by reversing the tendons. Extremely happy with Dr. Zlotolow and the nurses and staff at HSS. Thank you.
