Excellent staff and nurses! Everyone is very professional and caring.
Dr. Cook seems to know his stuff and has a good “bedside manner.” Would use him again.
Dr Cook and his team, notably the occupational therapists, saved the use of my finger. They took my injury seriously and proved that when it comes to your hands, the only rational choice is to see a sub-specialist.

Very organized and professional staff and medical team. Good communication and listening skills by medical staff to get to root cause of issue and suggest options for resolution.
I’ve had two (unrelated) procedures here and both went well. Everyone took good care of me and I have had good results. Surgeons seem to really know what they are doing.
Fractured & dislocated finger; Dr. Cook is an amazing surgeon and i can function like it never even happened. The Hand Center team is the RIGHT choice!
Dr. Cook has a great “bedside manner.” I felt like he gave me honest advice with my best interest in mind.
Doctor came in spent less than a minute with me. Seemed like he had other things to do. Said he’d be right back and never saw him again. 2 months later still issues with “minor” injury to finger

Dr. Kobus and staff are dedicated to outstanding patient care. The entire staff are caring and efficient and pleasant. You won’t find a better physician.
I hope that means 5 stars. I fully trusted Dr. Cook to get me back on track and getting my hand functioning after a serious break. That you, Dr Cook!

Best hand Sugeon around no question!! Everyone from the staff up front to back were awesome. Dr Cook was super nice and explained all options for the best outcome for proper recovery. If you need a hand doctor or surgery the hand center is without a dout the place to go .
Dr. Wilcox and staff are excellent! Dr. Wilcox performed 3 different surgeries on me throughout the years. All were very successful with no complications. Dr. Wilcox described my issues with great detail. He’s the best orthopedic surgeon in town!!
Dr. Paul Cook is Outstanding! His advice, professionalism and expert care is above and beyond. His office staff was amazing, fast and very professional.
Dr Gowda and his staff are very friendly and work together to keep the patient at ease. The nurses explained the procedure while prepping for surgery in a friendly easy to understand way. They earned my confidence in no time so I was not nervous at all.
I just got arthroscopic knee surgery and I’m already feeling better and it hasn’t been a week yet. Dr Kovack is an excellent surgeon he did my shoulder repair arthroscopic almost 5yrs ago.

Not how I was planning on spending my summer. But accidents happen and I was fortunate to have Hand and Microsurgery Associates provide my care from the very beginning.
