Hand Surgery
There are 27 bones, 29 joints and at least 123 named ligaments in the human hand.
About
Our hands serve many purposes. Hands help us eat, dress, write, earn a living, create art and do many other activities. To accomplish these tasks and activities, our hands require sensation and movement, such as joint motion, tendon gliding and muscle contraction. When a problem takes place in the hand, care must be given to all the different types of tissues that make function of the hand possible.
Conditions
If you have pain in your fingers, hand, wrist or arm, or have other upper-extremity related concerns, you may want to consult an orthopedic surgeon. If you’re suffering from carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist pain or sports related injury in your hand or wrist you may consider visiting our surgeons about your options.

"Dr. Pick, Katie (PT) and ALL of the staff of NWIB are excellent. I was scheduled for an appointment right away. Dr. Pick did an great job of diagnosing my issue. He discussed all of my options, and when I decided on surgery, the procedure was scheduled for the next week! Dr. Pick did a wonderful job and was so kind during the whole process. I have to compliment the whole team at NWIB. The front desk staff are all so caring and friendly. The x-ray team was great! And my physical therapy is going like gangbusters. If you have the need for orthopedic care of any kind, I highly recommend the team at Northwest Iowa Bone, Joint and Sports Surgeons."
"Dr. Pick is/ was an excellent, knowledgeable, compassionate surgeon when I had my rotator cuff surgery. I would highly recommend him!
The entire staff is professional and amicable.
One other staff member I would like to comment on is my physical therapist, Katie Hesse. She is of one the most caring, compassionate people I have ever met. She is knowledgeable, professional, and caring. I will actually be disappointed when my therapy is concluded!"

"I wanted to share my experience, I am an occupational health nurse and have had communication with several providers from this clinic assisting employees with work related as well as non work related issues when the employee request my assistance. Their detail to patient care is stellar as well as their patient outcomes. They also offer a annual Orthopedic Conference in Spencer annually in order to share knowledge with nurses, occupational and physical therapist in the area. This is a great benefit for education locally and contact hours for nursing. Thank you for all you do for the Spencer and surrounding communities."
