De Quervain's Release Surgery
Surgical release of the tendon sheath to permanently resolve De Quervain's tenosynovitis.
When conservative treatment and injections have not provided lasting relief, De Quervain's release surgery offers a definitive solution. The procedure involves releasing the tight tendon sheath to allow the tendons to move freely.
All treatments begin with a medical assessment
Every patient is seen by our onsite doctor partner, Aega Health, before any procedure. This 15-minute assessment (£150) includes full clinical assessment, diagnosis, suitability review, and consent, ensuring your care is safe and tailored to you.
