Patient Reviews
May 24, 2020
I visited Dr. Hesse for a 2nd opinion about a sprained wrist. The first doctor I visited had prescribed a wrist splint that was helping my wrist to heal. When I went back to the first doctor to show her how much my wrist had improved, she paid scant attention and told me I had to go to an orthopedic surgeon to get fitted for a cast. That was when I visited Dr. Hesse. She was very thorough, went over the test results with me and told me that the splint was very effective and that there was no need for a cast. She also recommended specific exercises. That was over 2 months ago and my wrist has totally healed to the point that I can do my pushups as before.
