Dr.David Drake introduces the new UK HealthCare Hand Center

The UK HealthCare Hand Center consists of experts committed to managing and treating hand and upper extremity conditions. 

Our fellowship-trained hand surgeons care for patients of all ages. They are experts in treating any hand, wrist or forearm condition. These include conditions caused by traumatic, inflammatory or congenital issues.

We use advanced diagnostic tools, on-site imaging and the latest orthotic devices to support accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. Our team works together to offer high-quality, coordinated care for patients across Lexington, the state and the region. 

Why choose the UK Hand Surgery Center?

At the UK HealthCare Hand Center, our doctors and therapists work closely with specialists across our health system.

Our team collaborates with fellowship-trained musculoskeletal radiologists, orthopaedic sports medicine doctors, rheumatologists, and physical medicine and rehabilitation doctors.

Our experts regularly review complex cases together, ensuring our patients get thoughtful multispecialty care.

As an academic health system, we embrace research to improve the health and experience of our patients.


Our team can guide your care from the start of your injury or condition through treatment and therapy.

At our state-of-the-art facility, surgeons and therapists work together to provide an excellent patient experience. We strive to set the gold standard in hand care as we work toward becoming a center of excellence for patients across Kentucky.

Hand and upper extremity specialists complete extensive training. In addition to board certification in orthopaedics or plastic surgery, they require a separate qualification and rigorous additional training in hand surgery. 

This level of expertise helps ensure patients can resume life with the best use of their hands, elbows and shoulders – and every part in between – and get back to the activities that matter most.
