Patient Reviews

“The best of the best! I certainly would not wish to go through all of this hand ordeal again, but the one shining light was meeting and working with Danielle Conroe. Her gentle manner, her ability to encourage and train me in all the exercises I have to do, and then pampering my little hand like I was at a spa made each visit something I would actually look forward to! I highly recommend her and know that this is the BEST care you will get in the Bay Area!”

Google Review

“They don’t tell you before surgery that 90% of the work is in post surgical therapy, and let’s be honest, it’s a long, painful ordeal to recover full use of your hand. Just do whatever you can to be assigned to Danielle Conroe. She is the happiest and most cheerful individual you will meet, which distracts enormously from the uncomfortable but critically necessary therapy, and her remarkable experience and deep knowledge of hand function assures a great outcome. I simply could not have had better therapy.”

Patient Testimonial

Provided directly to Bay Area Hand Therapy

Danielle Conroe is an exceptionally skilled, knowledgeable, and compassionate hand therapist. I highly recommend her. I had come to Danielle for therapy following a bad fall which resulted in two broken wrists. I was experiencing pain, numbness, and extreme limitations of movement in my right wrist as a result of botched original and revision surgeries. From my first appointment with Danielle, she recognized that my surgery outcome was not right. She went above and beyond and advocated for me, directly contacting the head of hand and upper extremity at a major hospital. Thanks to Danielle, I was able to get in for an immediate surgical consultation and scheduled for a re-revision surgery.

I sincerely owe Danielle my new lease on life following successful re-revision surgery and hand therapy with her twice a week for nine months. Throughout our therapy, Danielle used her deep experience, positive and encouraging manner to help me heal and regain flexibility and strength in my right hand and wrist. My therapy with Danielle was life saving considering my right wrist is my primary hand. I am extremely grateful and could not recommend her more highly.
