Dr Yaw Boachie-Adjei
Raleigh, NC
I have expertise in hand and wrist disorders, rotator cuff repair, shoulder replacement, and elbow pathology. I am one of a handful of upper extremity surgeons nationwide to have completed dual clinical fellowships in hand, shoulder, and elbow. Given this comprehensive training and background, I feel especially qualified to synthesize and treat complex upper extremity problems. I am dedicated to the delivery of state-of-the-art, yet scientifically-backed, surgical and medical treatment. As a practitioner, my goals are always to listen to my patients, understand them, educate them, and come up with effective treatment they are comfortable with and understand. This may be surgical or non-surgical but is always tailored to their goals and lifestyles. I believe in the philosophy that “health is wealth”. Personally, I try to live this through running, cycling, and enjoying the outdoors. My family also energizes me and gives me joy. I try to offer this same philosophy to my patients, and consider it a blessing to have the opportunity to care for them each day.
