Dr. Schreck specializes in hand, wrist and elbow surgery. He has been fascinated by the anatomy of the hand and arm since the beginning of medical school, and he finds the complexity and intricacies of the anatomy awe-inspiring. As he went through his residency training, having an opportunity to see first-hand how someone can be helped by a hand-surgical procedure left no doubt in his mind that he would choose this field. A procedure as simple as a carpal tunnel release can be life-changing for a patient. Returning function to patients with hand and upper-extremity related issues is extraordinarily gratifying, as virtually all people require use of their hands to a significant degree in their daily lives. In his free time, Dr. Schreck enjoys exercising and spending time with his family.
