I had to stop playing piano because I developed arthritis in my right hand CMC joint. They made me a splint to stabilize the joint overnight and recommended BioFreeze or Voltaren to ease the pain. After 3 weeks of sleeping in the splint, it felt better but with occasional sharp twinges. A cortisone shot improved it a lot, so I'm going back to practicing piano. If it starts up again, I can use the Voltaren and the splint to calm it down before it gets sore. Thank you, Atlanta Hand Specialists!

Had a simple trigger finger and Dr Watson and his staff could not be more supportive and helpful.
Excellent experience with this office, the hand surgery was successful and the physical therapy that followed brought my hand back to full strength and usefulness.
Great in office and surgery process with Dr. Patel. He was able to squeeze me in during the last weeks of the year which was much appreciated. Will definitely be my hand doctor of choice going forward.
The best quality care and great staff!
I fell pretty hard while hiking. Pain in my wrist and hand didn't go away for a couple of months. Dr. Patel recommended a cast to immobilize the area. I followed up with a few therapy sessions. Pain is gone, all is well. Thanks for your help!
My experience was amazing, the staff was great and Dr Molina is an amazing knowledgeable doctor with lots of bedside manners. I would definitely go back if I needed to and I 1000% would recommend this clinic to anyone and everyone that I know!
Dr. Amit and Angela were essential to helping me live pain free again! I had a ganglion cyst removed and then hand therapy afterwards for 6 weeks. I'm really happy with how it all went and how it looks. Now I can play my saxophone and take care of my two babies with no issues.
Great experience at Atlanta Hand Specialist. The staff is very polite and organized. I would recommend them to anyone with hand issues!
Very good Dr and staff. First experience I had before was not so good and here it was completely different for the best. 100% recommend
I highly recommend Dr Molina in the Lawrenceville, Ga office. Dr Molina is a great listener and take the time to figure out your issue. He also has an amazing staff there. They are super friendly and aways willing to help.
I am extremely thankful for Dr. Molina, who expertly rebuilt my hands after a horrible motorcycle wreck. His skill, compassion, and dedication to his patients are commendable. I am grateful for the exceptional care I received, and I highly recommend Dr. Molina and his team to anyone in need of top-notch hand specialists. Thank you for restoring both my function and hope.
Dr. Patel saved my finger when I was certain it would need to be amputated! Staff is very personable and helpful. Physical Therapist is awesome - very knowledgeable, funny, and serious about getting you back up to speed.
Every one here is so friendly and helpful. I’m most impressed by Dr. Molina is very passionate with your concerns. He takes time to throughly explain and advise you step by step. So happy I found this place . Atlanta Hand Specialist is the best!!!!
Fui con ellos, por dolores nocturnos en mis 2 manos, después de los estudios me diagnosticaron con el síndrome de tunel carpiano grave me sometí a cirugía con Dr Amrist Patel y mi calificación para ellos es 5 estrellas, son muy profesionales personal de recepción, terapeutas enfermeras siempre me trataron muy bien, hablan español y aceptan seguros médicos los recomiendo!!!!
Love Dr. Patel and his staff! Would recommend them highly!
I have used atlanta hand specialist for both hand surgeries. Dr watson and his crew are awesome. They are there to find answers to your problems and they work with you. I have had no trouble with my first hand since surgery about 5 years ago and I know this hand will be the same. Can't thank them enough. Having hand trouble, call them.
If you injure your hand in the Marietta/Kennesaw area, come here (just make sure your insurance allows specialist visits). They have a talented, friendly, and efficient staff and can provide care and support from diagnosis through rehab if needed. Dr. Watson identified a Bennett fracture that my nearby urgent care completely missed and was able to get me the proper treatment. Also of note: they listen to the patients and inform them of the different options including the ones they don't recommend, then let the patients make their own informed decisions.
Dr Molina is excellent!! Not only is he a well trained physician, he is a caring, compassionate caregiver with an excellent staff! My husband’s carpal tunnel issue has been resolved. I would recommend him highly!
Awesome experience with Dr. Watson and staff - recommended office to all my family and friends!
The whole staff is very professional and friendly and Dr. Watson is an amazing doctor that really takes the time to go over the procedure and answer any questions and concerns.
Great job doctor Patel. I’m getting my golf swing back. Thank you. Awesome staff.
I'm extremely pleased with the service I received from Dr. Amit. Patel and the physical therapist Anna. I've made a complete recovery.
My wife Stacy Gunter came in because of severe pain associated with carpal tunnel syndrome due to her pregnancy. The entire staff and Dr. Contractor went above and beyond to help her. The treatment was successful due to the Doctors knowledge of the situation. Stacy was treated with compassion and care like family not just a patient. We are forever grateful and highly recommend her expertise to anyone suffering.
Thanks to Doctor Amit Patel and physical therapist, Anna, my hand has recovered nearly all of the strength and mobility back after carpal tunnel surgery six weeks ago. The entire staff is so friend and was genuinely concerned about my comfort and well-being. Anna was such a joy to work with. Her inspiration was a strong motivator in my quick recovery. Doctor A. Patel's attentiveness and professionalism also made the entire process so much better. I very strongly recommend the Canton office of Atlanta Hand Specialist!
I smashed my thumb very hard with a hammer, and had to go to the ER. Ended up fracturing the bone tip also. They (the ER) recommended Atlanta Hand Specialist, and doctor Amit Patel M.D. seen me that same night. He operated on my thumb 2 days later, and me being a disabled vet, I had to do my follow-ups at the VA center in another state. I was so relieved with the pain and how it turned out. When I got to the VA center here in Florida, even the doctors spoke very highly of him and his work. I can't thank him and his staff enough. Two thumbs up. LOL
The Dr at East Cobb was awesome, as is his staff. My right hand fingers were almost closed and now straight as an arrow withh full mobility. Now to the left hand with the same problem. Wouldnt use anyone else.
Dr. Dhruti Contractor is amazing. She has good bad side manner and awesome surgeon.
Dr. Patel really took his time with me. He diagnosed my symptom right away and found a solution. Now I'm feeling so much. I would recommend him to anyone.
Excellent care could not ask for better
My experience with Atlanta Hand Specialist in Sandy Springs was as amazing as it could be considering the circumstance of having a fractured ulna. Dr. Contractor was very patient with me, she was incredibly kind, and she made me feel comfortable and confident with each visit. The entire staff was fantastic - I am mostly healed now and I am actually going to miss going back for my follow up visits!
Wonderful
Very caring and makes sure you get the therapy that is needed
Excellent! These are the experts!!
Dr was very patient and detailed both in the exam and helping me to decide the best course. Surgery went extremely well. OTs were very well trained and effective. Entire staff was a pleasure to worth with. Would return.
