Patient Recommendation

t took trying out a few different chiropractors before I found one that I
liked. Frank Greenberg in Arlington, Texas.
He respected my own knowledge about my condition and worked with me on the
areas I knew needed help. The other (rejected) chiropractors did two things
wrong:

1. relied on that little metal thingie to go up and down my spine.....
sorry, but I don't buy that it works.

2. another worked in his own way, ignoring the area I said needed help. Her
was fixated on the way my legs/feet laid and adjusted my back (with a metal
thingie) based on the way my feet were resting. He ignored the fact that my
problem was C6/7 T1 (shown on x-rays).


Greenberg also adjusted my wrists, thumbs, and lower back, depending on
what *I* tell him is going on.
He didn't try to get me in 3-4 times a week. We did one month at once a
week, and now it's just once a month. In a nutshell, he *listens* to me, and
I don't get the impression he wants to drain my bank account. Instead of
poking me with the "activator?," he contorts me, twists me, jumps on me,
body slams me.... all for $20 a visit... and it's working very well.

Alignment and Body Usage Adjusting. The power that made us from two
microscopic cells is still inside and does a better job of fixing things
whenever or Posture and Body usage create no or less stress. Gravity
Oxygen are very powerfull powers that we have control of their influence
better with correct posture and better body usage, i think!


Posture is the main attention and helping them adjust their posture in
the office as well as on the job developing a good posture habit has
been very helpfull.

I don't know them but have taken classes in the work(it's an offshoot of
Bowen technique) so I know it's effective. They probably will be able to
help.

Patient Recommendation

I have had both carpel tunnel and cubital tunnel. My best recommendation for
the Dallas area is Dr. Robert Wilcox.
He can be reached at 972-985-7474 and is located in Plano. He did surgery on
my hands for carpel tunnel, and since he is a plastic surgeon also, there
were no visible scars left and my carpel tunnel was treated successfully.
He is now treating me for cubital tunnel but treatment has not yet been
completed.

I have been seeing "Gail Blom". She is Certified Hand Therapist.

Patient Recommendation
I would like to add a doctor to the findadoc list for Houston, Texas.
Dr. Alan Rosen of the KSF Orthopaedic Center. Here is their website:

Their hand specialist is Dr. Alan Rosen.

At the same clinic:

Dr. Samuel John Alianell, M. D. , 37, is one of a growing number of physicians practicing the medical specialty called physiatry. Physiatrists are doctors specializing in physical medicine and rehabilitation. The focus of the specialty is restoring function to people suffering from traumatic or repetitive stress injuries that cause pain or limit their physical capabilities.


Patient Recommendation

I am in Houston.  I would recommend checking out:

http://www.mysurgeon.com/hand/physicians/gabel.htm This is the Dr. I
see for RSI.


Patient Recommendation

I saw Dr. Kent Dickson numerous times. He didn't heal me but he examined
me and advised as best he could. He specializes in upper extremities. He didn't
claim to know everything and had a hint of compassion.

Dr. Kent Dickson
500 W. Main Street suite 200

972.420.1776

 helps but doesn't cure completely. I am not seeking docs so much  anymore just
trying to manage. I am not doing too bad. the doc (Chiropractor)in arlington
is :  Dr. Kee Fedak - 817.303.7770. let me know how it goes.


Miscellaneous

Somebody was asking about resources in the San
Antonio area. I've just found a Hand Institute website
which seems to say all the right things. It's run by an
orthopedic group based in Houston & San Antonio.
Website is http://www.mysurgeon.com/ and follow the
link to "institutes". Hopestar Orthopedic Group is on
McCulloch Ave, phone 225-5741.

I live here in San Antonio and have had 2 hand surgeries done here. I have
also checked out the web site you mention and there is a lot more offered
here than what is available on the web. For instance, Dr. Green the leading
hand surgeon and author of "Green's Operative Hand" and many more books lives
here in San Antonio. He has also operated on David Robinson the center of the
San Antonio Spurs. Also Dr. Paul Pace, yes of the Pace picante family,
resides here in San Antonio and has a hand clinic at the downtown Nix
hospital. You can find just about any medical specialist here. San Antonio is
a medical and military city with the infamous Brooke Army Medical Center
which burn unit services patients from around the world.
