Patient Reviews
Aug 05, 2024
I had a work injury of the ulna nerve, a tfcc tear and ECU tendon damage. The ulna nerve was poorly served at a location in the Twin Cities, and I decided to go to Mayo for the rest. When I met Dr Kakar and Karen, I knew I could trust them to answer my questions and correctly diagnose what had been overlooked by others. It was a long journey of injections, then the surgery with a painful recovery (I was surprised by how much pain for the first 3 weeks though I had been told it is one of the most painful). But the team was very clear about what the process was - two months of casts and another 3 months of braces with accompanying PT. I believe in the process and am a firm believer in doing therapy to get back to the sports I enjoyed - kayaking, cross-country skiing, and biking.
