Robert Medoff, Developer of Fragment-Specific Fixation for Wrist Fractures, Visits the Hand Center!

We are proud to have had Dr. Medoff travel all the way from Hawaii to San Antonio to help teach our Hand Surgery Fellows and local Orthopaedic Surgery Residents more about Fragment-Specific Fixation of complex distal radius fractures.

As an Orthopaedic Surgeon early in his career, he recognized the limitations of fixation options at the time and developed a solution that focuses the surgeon on the most critical components of complex fractures and provides the tools to fix them.  He has truly revolutionized the way we look at wrist fractures, and we are proud to have had him visit us.
