Dupuytren’s Needle Aponeurotomy
Patient of: Garry S. Kitay, MD
A Testimonial for Dr. Kitay on Dupuytren’s Needle Aponeurotomy
Dr. Kitay performed a Dupuytren’s needle procedure on my left hand and greatly relieved the contracture of the tendon causing my left hand to curl up. Sometime in the next year or two, I will probably ask him to do the same procedure on my other hand. He did a good job. I am pleased with his work and that of the staff at JOI.
