What Recent Hand Surgery Research Reveals About Telemedicine After Carpal Tunnel and Trigger Finger Surgery for Patients Across North Georgia
As a board-certified orthopedic hand and upper extremity surgeon, I regularly review current hand surgery research to stay informed about how our field continues to evolve. New studies are published every month, but the most important question for patients is not what a study shows on paper, but how that information actually affects real-world care. This article focuses on a recent peer-reviewed study examining telemedicine after common hand surgeries and explains how I apply those findings when caring for patients throughout North Georgia, including those who travel long distances from mountain and rural communities.
