His most common procedures are carpal tunnel release, trigger finger release, shoulder replacement, wrist/hand fractures, thumb arthritis, and thumb basal joint arthroplasty. Dr. Mahmood became an orthopedic surgeon because he is fascinated by complex anatomy in a small space. What sets him apart is that he tailors treatment to a patient’s specific needs. He listens to patient complaints and treats those problems, not just abnormal tests.
