Welcome! We invite you to experience the Forest Health Medical Center difference!

FHMC is different from either a general medical hospital or a large university medical center. We provide you with specialty surgery and personal care by the best specialty surgeons and staff.

Just like the major medical centers we have the latest modern equipment and facilities, but that is not what makes us different. The personal care you will receive is unlike the typical impersonal healthcare offered in most large university medical centers. At FHMC we are committed to caring for you as our family.

Hand - Closed Reduction Percutaneous Pinning

Rather than an incision to repair a broken finger, a finger fracture may be treated with a closed reduction percutaneous pinning. This involves manipulation of the bone back into proper position and the insertion of wires through the skin into the bones to hold them in place. Fractures, dislocations, and some tendon injuries can be treated with this method.
