Excellent service for thumb basal joint surgery. I drove over 2 hours to see Dr. Julka and it was worth the drive. By far the best hand surgeon in Columbus.

Dr. Julka was very knowledgeable and kind to myself and my family during our visit. We saw him for a second opinion and were glad to know that a surgery was possible for my father's wrist condition. I have seen a lot of doctors in my day and he is one of the absolute best.

Dr. Julka did my endoscopic carpal tunnel release and did a great job. I had minimal pain and was able to return to my job the next day. Surgery is easier than I expected and Dr. Julka put me at ease. I would recommend him strongly.

Dr. Julka did a great job with my wrist arthroscopy surgery and TFCC tear repair. He listened to all my concerns and gave me several options for treatment which i really appreciated. In the end I am really happy I chose to have surgery. I cant thank Dr. Julka enough and I recommend him without reservation for wrist surgery.

Dr. Julka is an amazing surgeon and doctor. I saw him as a second opinion for finger arthritis. He was able to properly diagnose my finger issue which was due to rheumatoid arthritis and get me to a rheumatologist. In addition he performed a surgery (finger arthroscopy) to remove all the inflammation. It has been life changing and incredibly easy to recover. I would urge anyone needing hand surgery to see him. He and his staff are absolutely wonderful .

I had a severe hand deformity and inability to use my hand secondary to a disease called dupuytren disease. Dr. Julka diagnosed my condition right away even when it puzzled my other doctors. He gave me lots of options and he has the best bedside manner of any doctor I have seen. I chose to have surgery and I am very happy I had it done by Dr. Julka. 3 months after surgery my hand is perfect and I barely had any discomfort. He is a highly skilled surgeon and extremely kind and honest doctor. I would recommend Dr. Julka highly for any hand surgery.

Dr. Julka fixed my wrist arthritis with surgery a few weeks ago with great success. He is very confident and experienced. I’m very happy with Ohio state university and Dr. Julka. His scheduled Amy made me feel at ease. She is a keeper. I recommend Dr. Julka and his team highly.
