The Kettering Health Hand Center of Excellence, located at Kettering Health Washington Township, will offer free hand surgery to uninsured or underinsured Dayton-area residents on Sunday, September 17.

Eligible candidates are those who do not have medical insurance and are experiencing one of the following symptoms:

• Numbness or tingling in the hands or fingers
• Fingers that are difficult to move
• Painful lumps in the hand or wrist

“Every year we look forward to Hand Day Dayton because it allows us to provide much-needed care to those who may not be able to afford it otherwise,” said Dr. Adam Dann, hand and upper extremity surgeon with Kettering Health and Orthopedic Associates of SW Ohio. “Performing these complimentary surgeries allows us to further live our mission of improving the lives of our community members.”

Hand Day Dayton is an extension of Touching Hands – the American Society for Surgery of the Hand’s humanitarian mission – and is done in partnership with The Kettering Health Hand Center of Excellence, Orthopedic Associates of SW Ohio, TeamHealth, and The American Society for Surgery of the Hand.
