Hand and wrist pain can make everyday tasks—typing, gripping, cooking—frustrating and exhausting. Many people delay care because they worry about general anesthesia, hospital stays, or lengthy recovery times. What if you could get lasting relief with precise procedures performed comfortably right in the office?

At Vero Orthopaedics, we’re committed to advanced, evidence-based options that help you return to life sooner. Today’s in-office hand surgery techniques are designed to relieve pain while minimizing disruption to surrounding tissues—often under local anesthesia with streamlined recovery.

To explore these options, we’re hosting a free seminar, “Discover the Top 5 In-Office Hand Surgery Procedures,” led by Joao (Joe) Panattoni, M.D., a board-certified orthopaedic surgeon specializing in hand, wrist, elbow, and pediatric orthopaedics. 

What You’ll Learn at the Seminar

How it works:

See how minimally invasive, office-based techniques (including ultrasound-guided and endoscopic approaches) precisely treat common hand and wrist conditions with local anesthesia.

Why it matters:

Understand potential benefits—less pain, fewer risks from anesthesia, lower cost, and quicker return to daily activities—compared with hospital-based procedures.

Am I a candidate?

Bring your questions. Dr. Panattoni will discuss which conditions qualify for in-office treatment and what to expect before, during, and after your procedure.

What Is In-Office Hand Surgery?

“In-office” procedures are performed in a clinic setting using sterile technique and local anesthesia. With small incisions and image guidance when needed, these techniques aim to reduce tissue trauma and streamline recovery—so patients can get back to work and hobbies faster.

Conditions Often Treated In-Office

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (including ultrasound-guided or endoscopic release)
  • Trigger Finger (release performed under local anesthesia)
  • De Quervain’s Tenosynovitis
  • Ganglion Cysts (excision or aspiration, as appropriate)
  • Small Masses & Tendon/Nerve Entrapments (select cases)

Potential Advantages of Office-Based Techniques

  • Local anesthesia, no general anesthesia
  • Smaller incisions with tissue-sparing approaches
  • Reduced post-procedure pain
  • Lower infection risk and lower overall cost than hospital settings
  • Faster recovery and earlier return to light activity (individual results vary)

Why You Should Attend

If hand or wrist pain is limiting your life, this free seminar is a clear, low-pressure way to understand modern options. Dr. Panattoni will explain which procedures can be safely performed in the office, who qualifies, and what recovery really looks like, followed by a dedicated Q&A.

Don’t let hand pain set your limits.
