I shattered my pinky finger last year and had surgery to put in a plate and screws. My surgeon at Stanford recommended HOC, and I’m happy he did. I felt silly going to physical therapy for a pinky (I mean, “it’s just a pinky”, right?) but little did I know how important that little sucker is. But you are expected to know the drill as a patient and go through your exercises while you wait to have manual therapy. I appreciate the no-nonsense attitude of HOC therapists. I’m not a patient to be coddled, but to get out of there as fast as possible and back to regular life again.

If you have hand, arm, shoulder issues, I highly recommend Hands On Care.

If I was writing by how I’m feeling at the moment I would’ve given them a one star, but as annoyed as I am I need to be fair and give them what they deserve. The doctor therapists and aids are so sweet, friendly, patient, professional, and knowledgeable. I really enjoyed every appointment, it’s like going to a friends house and just chitchatting well taking care of a medical issue that needs to be tended to. The reason for my frustration is that I planned my appointments around the factthat I am starting a new job and I would like to have this taken care of before I start. I made it very clear to my therapist several days ago when she checked to see if there is an appointment available this morning because I was seeing my other Doctor Who needed the results by 2 PM my appointment time, and she reassured me that that wasn’t a problem and it would be there. I got to my second doctors appointment and no progress reports were sent so I called the office, I was told to just tell my doctor that it’s the same and I need surgery, I felt a little confused because that was the whole point of going to therapy so that he could get an opinion after my therapy to see if he needs to proceed with surgery. Unfortunately that did not happen so now I’m waiting in the wins and will be starting my job on Monday most likely before I could get any kind of resolution and it’s very frustrating considering I started this whole process last October to make sure that if I did need surgery it would all be taken care of before I started looking for jobs and now here we are. Oh well maybe if I wasn’t so organized it would’ve worked out differently, I really feel like communication is the best way to go if you want something accomplished properly and in a timely manner, but this time I guess it just didn’t work. Regardless yes I would choose to go to this location again and yes everything else there was perfect!!!
