Professional Statement
Dr. Tanaka enjoys the challenge and variety that upper extremity care provides, from common treatments such as carpal tunnel syndrome to more complex surgical procedures including total wrist, elbow and shoulder replacement. He also performs minimally invasive procedures such as wrist, elbow and shoulder arthroscopy to help return patients to activity as soon as possible. Dr. Tanaka works closely with each patient to present treatment options, understand the goals they hope
to achieve, and help them make the best treatment decision based on those goals.
