Chang, Te N MD

With the use of our hands, we shape our lives and our world. I have dedicated my life's work to helping individuals continue to use their hands effectively in the face of the myriad injuries and pathologies that can impact their normal function. The human hand and upper extremity have been exquisitely engineered through millions of years of evolution. The function that they afford is a manifestation of complex interactions between skin, bone, muscle, tendon, and nerve tissues. Through both surgical and non-surgical approaches, I am committed to helping my patients maximize their hand function so that they can continue to shape their worlds, and bring meaning to their lives.
