Anton J. Fakhouri, MD, FICS, FACS

Hand and Upper Extremity Orthopaedic Specialist

As a hand and upper extremity physician, I am passionate about my area of specialty and the optimal health care of my patients. I enjoy and take pride in educating my students and resident doctors as I enjoy educating my patients. The more you know the more you can take care of yourself and participate in your health care decisions.

Thus, a partnership developed between a doctor and a patient based on mutual respect combined with a caring and skillful orthopedic doctor will lead to a patient's optimal experience. It is a privilege and an honor to treat you and I pledge to give you the best care possible.

"Our hands allow us to touch people. And our shoulders and elbows allow us to reach out to the rest of the world. And with that, we can transform the lives of others."
