Peripheral nerve injury, brachial plexus and abnormal pain responses:
Nerve injuries often occur in trauma, and abnormal pain responses and loss of function can be the result. Many of these are best treated non-operatively, with a number of different disciplines involved in the patient’s recovery. In some cases surgery can restore function and remove or significantly reduce pain. Knowing when to operate and when to treat non-operatively is vital.
Patrick has a special interest and experience in peripheral nerve and brachial plexus surgeries, as well as treating abnormal pain responses in a multidisciplinary way.
