Carpal Tunnel Treatment
Our carpal tunnel specialists diagnose and treat median nerve compression using both conservative management and surgical interventions. We offer endoscopic carpal tunnel release, a minimally invasive procedure that reduces recovery time compared to traditional methods. Patients receive personalized treatment plans based on severity assessments and lifestyle factors.
Fracture Repair
We specialize in treating complex hand, wrist, and forearm fractures requiring precise realignment and stabilization. Our surgeons utilize advanced imaging and surgical techniques to restore bone integrity while minimizing long-term complications. Emergency care is available for acute traumatic injuries.
Wrist Arthroscopy
This procedure uses small incisions and specialized instruments to diagnose and treat wrist joint problems. Arthroscopy allows for quicker recovery while addressing conditions like TFCC tears, arthritis, and ligament damage with reduced tissue disruption.
Hand Therapy
Our certified hand therapists develop customized rehabilitation programs following injury or surgery. Treatment includes range-of-motion exercises, scar management, and adaptive techniques to restore functionality and prevent future complications.
Elbow Surgery
We treat elbow conditions ranging from tennis elbow to complex fractures using both conservative and surgical approaches. Procedures include arthroscopy, ligament reconstruction, and joint replacement for patients with chronic pain or mobility limitations.

I came to see Dr Guyette for chronic arm and wrist pain due entirely to my 34 year career working with computers. He did not initially suggest surgery, which I like from a surgeon. He listened carefully, then sent me off for nerve testing, then a cortisone injection. I ended up with carpel tunnel surgery which ended my arm pain! I have the tiniest incision and after a month, I am remarkably better. Really wish I had done this 10 years ago!

5 stars because Dr Todd Guyette is a gifted Surgeon! First, he is a regular person that talks to you very nicely like a friend. And more importantly he is professional, educated, experienced, and has a solid technical approach. Then most importantly he can deliver as a hands on (no pun intended) Surgeon who knows what he's doing with high accuracy and precision in the surgical execution. I'm 62 yrs old been playing classical flamenco and rock guitar since I was 8 years old. I'm a 40-year veteran Materials Engineer and don't rely on my band/music for income but rely on my

I had a bad broken wrist and needed additional surgery. I was referred to Dr. Guyettes office. Connor was the first to greet me. He introduced himself and explained the process. After surgery I did my physical therapy with Kristin who was also so friendly and nice. She too took the time to explain the process and what to expect throughout the rehab process.
Dr. Guyette work is fantastic. I needed a plate and screws put in. 10 weeks later, I have my complete motion back. The healing process was far better than I could have ever expected. What a great team!

I was referred to Dr. Guyette for treatment of my ganglion cyst. He was thoughtful in his approach to determining whether surgery was needed. He ordered an ultrasound which revealed how deep the cyst was and reviewed the pros and cons of surgery. During surgery, he and his team were compassionate and communicative.
Dr. Guyette works with a wonderful team. There is virtually no wait time, the office is beautiful and the people who support him treat patients like royalty. Follow up visits went well. I'm actually going to miss seeing Dr. Guyette because I like him so much!
