YOUR JOURNEY
Consultation
If a tendon injury left a gap that cannot be repaired primarily—or prior repair failed—this consultation is about reconstructive options and honest timelines. Our team reviews hand or extremity function goals, prior surgery notes when available, and what exam findings suggest about tissue quality. Dr. Potter explains graft sources, protected motion concepts, and therapy expectations in plain language so you understand what improvement can look like.
The procedure
Tendon grafting is performed with hand-specialty discipline: secure graft inset, respect for pulleys and glide planes, and repair constructs chosen to support early protected motion when appropriate. Dr. Potter prioritizes strength and smooth tendon travel so dexterity tasks—typing, gripping, lifting—become believable again over time.
Recovery
Recovery includes splinting, therapy partnerships when they strengthen outcomes, and clear limits on force early on. You will know what soreness is typical, when to advance activity, and what signs should prompt a call. Our team stays available while strength and glide return in measured increments.
Restorative Precision
Dr. Potter approaches tendon grafting with reconstructive precision: careful bed preparation, stable fixation principles, and respect for surrounding nerves—because glide and strength are the outcomes that matter in real life.
Clinical Indicators
This pathway is for patients with tendon loss or irreparable defects requiring graft reconstruction—when expert planning supports function-first recovery of the hand or extremity.
Comprehensive Recovery & Refinement
Once healing allows, many patients appreciate gentle skin support on the hand or treated extremity—Morpheus8 or Laser PhotoFacial when timing is appropriate on sun-exposed cleared areas, Signature Facial for overall skin comfort unrelated to the surgical site, and medical-grade moisturizers from our Product Hub for scar-friendly home care when cleared.
