Dr. Devin Selva Ganesh, MD

As a surgeon my hands are my livelihood. After suffering an injury to my right wrist (TFCC tear) I was worried not only about how I was going to do daily activity but also was genuinely fearful that I would be out of work permanently. I saw Dr Devin Ganesh as a patient and he expertly assessed the problem and even noted my unique anatomy that may have contributed to it. He was calm and collected even in the face of what I saw as a crisis and he was confident in his treatment decision and that confidence helped to reassure me. He was not overly cocky and in fact did have me see a second Hand surgeon just to get a different opinion to consider. Ultimately, I went with Dr Ganesh’s treatment plan and am very glad I did. We went with a non-surgical approach (which I know makes him less money) and though the prolonged casting was uncomfortable I am now 12 weeks out from the injury and am back to work more than full time. I am still recovering and going to hand therapy but the outcome has… been great. The whole time Dr Ganesh provided reassurance that it would get better and I would be able to get back to work. Ultimately I cannot say enough good things about Dr Ganesh. His judgement and treatment plan were spot on for a difficult problem without strong evidence for treatment. I would recommend anyone to go to see him for hand and shoulder issues. I would (and have) sent my family to him and they were very well taken care of. If you need a Hand or Shoulder surgeon take my advice and go to the “surgeon’s surgeon” no matter where in Hawaii you are coming from.
