At the Colorado Hand Center, Steven M. Topper, M.D., Emily DiBartolomeo, PA-C, and Dianne C. March, OTR/CHT, work together to offer you complete care for the upper extremity including comprehensive evaluation, medical and surgical management, and post surgical rehabilitation in the same practice. Because hand surgery and post surgical rehabilitation each have their own unique role in the healing process, there is no approach more efficient than the combination of both. Communication between the surgeon and therapist is critical to the best possible outcomes.
