I have let it go too far. Starting to interfere with function of my hand. Probably need surgery. Any recommendations?

Dr. Robbie LeBlanc is the main hand guy in Lafayette.

Dude is a little weird. I’ve been to him and also bryce fugarino at LOS. If I go back I’m going with Bryce.

Yes, definitely agree with you. If I had a mangled hand and had to stay in Lafayette I'd probably still go with LeBlanc though. For what the OP is looking for I'm sure there are several surgeons that can perform it adequately.

Dr. Gary Porubsky in Opelousas. Best hand surgeon in the South!

Go talk to someone about radiation before you get surgery.

High prevalence of Dupuytren's contractures in Germany and they have moved toward using radiation first instead of surgery.
