Over the past year, I had the privilege of going to this practice, post emergency surgery on 05/24/2021. I had a traumatic fall and had to have emergency surgery later that night. Dr. Terry M. Messer is the best! He handled my most difficult surgery with ease and expertise which gave me comfort. He took my fears away. Also, my OT Susan Bousquet was the finest OT a patient could possibly have.
The whole team is magnificent! I highly recommend them for any hand to shoulder needs. I hated to say good-bye on 05/10/2022! Thank you all so much for your compassionate care!

I am thankful that I decided to change provider back in 2018 and went for Raleigh Hand to Shoulder Center to fix my trigger thumb in 2018 and just this month for my trigger middle finger. Dr. John Erickson is thorough, accomodating and overall the kind of doctor that you can rely on. I was awake on both my surgeries and was confident that the right surgeon was taking care of me.
The staff in the center are warm from the front office to the nurses. The facility is clean. So far I do not remember waiting in the lobby for a long time to be called. I recommend them 100%.

So impressed with Dr. Shricker's instinctive diagnoses and ability to do what he does. I'm not a big fan of needles into my joints as many would agree and yet he makes it so easy and almost completely painless. Outstanding doctor and someone who feels like a friend, not just someone to treat your pain with little personality. I wouldn't go to anyone else! Thank you!

Recently saw Dr Edwards III thinking I needed shoulder replacement. I had been told years ago (by another doctor) that I would one day and I had been having neck stiffness and pain, which I thought was because of my shoulder. After an exam and x-ray, he assured me I would not benefit from a shoulder replacement because my problem is arthritis in my shoulder and neck.
He told me I would benefit from exercise and arthritis medication and if that doesn't take care of the pain and stiffness, he could give me a shot of cortisone. "Come back if you need me, " he said. "I'm always here for you." He is a warm and pleasant person, and I am so grateful for his care. By the way, the front office staff are lovely ladies. So sweet and efficient.
