Been to Dr Lifchez several times - always gives me options, explains those options, listens, and I usually get a cortisone shot. Will eventually have him do the surgery down the road.

Dr Lifchez gave me exactly the kind of information I was seeking. I am very confident in his expertise and appreciate that he doesn't jump straight to surgery as a first line of treatment, even though he IS a surgeon. Previous hand surgeon I consulted with wanted to jump straight to surgery and IMO was understating the recovery period and pain.
