Research and clinical evidence form the basis of our hand therapy practices, ensuring that every treatment is grounded in proven methods.

What patients are saying
I am currently under the care of HULC Bethesda as a result of a wrist fracture. What an amazing group of people. Efficient, knowledgeable and professional, the therapists and the Admin staff are terrific. Despite how busy they always are, they maintain a punctual service, without ever rushing the process. Some of the best professional care I have ever experienced.
