I have had six hand surgeries b/t both hands due to Rheumatoid Arthritis. If it were not for Dr. Gantt and her team, I truly would not be where I am today. I went from having very little function to being able to carry on my daily activities as if I didn't even have RA. I even knit, that would not be possible without the outstanding treatment and skills for Dr. Gantt. I highly encourage anyone with any kind of hand issue to go to OrthoCarolina. The Hand Center is beyond top notch!
