Hand and elbow

Southampton University Hospitals Trust is a regional centre for complex hand, wrist and elbow problems. We treat muscle and bone conditions ranging from fractures (broken bones) and carpal tunnel syndrome, to major wrist joint replacement and arthritis.

A dedicated hand therapy team consisting of occupational therapists and physiotherapists works alongside our specialist surgeons to treat conditions and help patients recover after operations and injuries.

We are a tertiary (specialist) hospital, which means patients are often referred to us by consultants from other hospitals covering a wide area including Jersey and the Isle of Wight. We also take referrals from GPs, physiotherapists and occupational therapists.
