Reconstructive & Hand Surgery in Toronto

Reconstructive & Hand Surgery in Ontario

Reconstructive and hand surgery covers procedures that restore function and appearance after injury, illness, or a congenital condition. This includes trauma repair (fractures, lacerations, crush injuries), carpal tunnel release and other nerve decompression surgery, tendon repair, Dupuytren's contracture treatment, breast reconstruction after mastectomy, scar revision, skin cancer excision and repair, and correction of congenital hand differences. It's distinct from purely cosmetic work: the goal here is usually restoring movement, sensation, or normal tissue function, though many procedures also address appearance as part of that repair. Toronto has 39 practices in this category, ranging from hospital-affiliated reconstructive surgeons to hand-focused specialists working out of private clinics.

What to look for in a surgeon

Training matters more here than in most cosmetic categories. Look for board certification in plastic surgery with a fellowship or specific experience in hand or reconstructive work, since not every plastic surgeon does this regularly. Ask about hospital privileges (reconstructive cases sometimes need an OR with broader surgical support), how many similar procedures they perform annually, and what their approach to post-op therapy and follow-up looks like, since hand recovery depends heavily on physiotherapy and occupational therapy coordination. Get clarity on whether OHIP covers the procedure (many reconstructive and hand cases are medically necessary and covered) versus what falls into an uninsured or cosmetic category.

All reconstructive & hand surgery in Toronto, ranked by score and relevance

39 businesses, scored on recent reviews. The order weighs each business's overall score by how much of its reviewed work is reconstructive & hand surgery, so a lower-scored specialist can rank above a higher-scored generalist.

TMB Cosmetic Surgery: Trevor M. Born, MD
4.9(220)✓ Google-verified

Long-term patients and first-time clients consistently praise Dr. Born's artistic approach to facial aesthetics and his team's warm professionalism. Staff members Yolanda and Mariana stand out for listening carefully to goals and guiding patients through procedures with confidence and care.

Dr. Brett Beber - Toronto Plastic Surgeon
4.9(159)✓ Google-verified

Dr. Beber's patients consistently report feeling heard and cared for from consultation through recovery. Reviewers praise his surgical precision, gentle demeanor, and team support, with many noting minimal scarring, quick healing, and results that exceed expectations. His scope spans breast surgery, body contouring, and injectables. Nurse Madison receives repeated praise for skilful, gentle injections and natural-looking cosmetic outcomes. Patients with medical complexities or surgical anxiety report feeling especially reassured by his patience and the clinic's responsive aftercare.

McRae Plastic Surgery
5.0(117)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Reviewers consistently report exceptional outcomes across breast, facial, and reconstructive procedures, with minimal scarring and natural-looking results even weeks post-op. Dr. Mark McRae and his team (including twin brother Dr. Matthew) combine surgical precision with genuine care-taking time to listen, explain procedures clearly, and follow up personally; Lacey, the patient coordinator, stands out for responsiveness to patient questions. Patients praise the thorough consultation process, professionalism during surgery, and smooth recovery guidance. The practice operates at Saint Michael's Hospital in Toronto and a Burlington follow-up location. No complaints appear in the review record; even patients choosing revisional surgery with Dr. McRae report better outcomes than their first procedure elsewhere.

Dr. Ali Adibfar | Elements Toronto
4.9(298)✓ Google-verified

Patients report consistently excellent surgical outcomes across diverse procedures, from rhinoplasty to body contouring, and credit Dr. Adibfar's precision and direct communication with achieving their aesthetic goals. His team delivers responsive support throughout the journey, though a small minority noted occasional rudeness at reception. Reviewers specifically mention staff members Nicky and Gina for expert guidance on injectables, lasers, and follow-up care. Procedures consistently cited include breast augmentation, revision breast surgery, rhinoplasty, tummy tuck, chin filler, and various body procedures, all earning high marks for technique and result durability.

Studio Plastic Surgery
4.9(127)✓ Google-verified

Patients consistently report that Dr. Jindal listens carefully to their goals, delivers results that look natural rather than overdone, and puts them at ease before and after surgery. The team responds quickly to questions, provides detailed aftercare instructions (creams, vitamins, prescriptions), and creates a warm, professional atmosphere that makes the process feel less intimidating. Multiple reviewers mention specific staff members: Nurse Jasmin and Sylvia for their patience and quick responses, Andreh for non-surgical work like lip filler and Dysport, Dr. Tai for Sculptra, and Jessie for lymphatic drainage massage. Recovery is described as smooth with minimal discomfort, and many patients return for second procedures.

Ford Plastic Surgery: Dr. Derek Ford
4.9(243)✓ Google-verified

Patients repeatedly praise Dr. Ford for blending technical precision with genuine attentiveness, producing refreshed rather than overdone results. Eyelid work, rhinoplasty, and facial lifts drew particular mention, with reviewers noting he listens carefully, explains options thoroughly, and remains accessible during recovery. One patient reported unsatisfactory results on a neck lift, claiming loose skin should have been addressed in the initial procedure, with additional costs requested afterward. The business states it serves Toronto, the greater Toronto area, Oshawa, North York, Pickering, and Scarborough through RCPSC-certified surgeons.

Toronto Cosmetic Surgery Institute
4.9(410)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

The vast majority of patients report excellent outcomes with Dr. Jugenburg and his team. Reviewers consistently praise natural-looking results, meticulous attention to detail, and genuine care from surgery through recovery. Staff members like Denise, Megan, Janella, and Rameetha are named for their support. One recent patient reported significant dissatisfaction with breast augmentation results and scarring after paying $17,000, requiring two revisions. Most reviews describe minimal scarring and satisfaction, but this case raises concerns about consistency or outcome management in complex cases. The clinic's strength lies in thorough pre-op consultation, skilled surgical execution, and accessible post-op support via email and phone. Long-term patients report satisfaction years after procedures.

Dr. Oakley Smith Rhinoplasty
4.9(160)✓ Google-verified

Patients consistently report exceptional surgical outcomes, particularly with revision cases and breathing correction. Recovery is notably smooth with minimal bruising and pain management that surprised many. Dr. Smith's detailed consultation style and realistic expectations set him apart; his team provides strong post-op support. One reviewer needed filler to address dents post-healing and initially felt unheard about last-minute surgical changes, though Dr. Smith later refunded that patient in full when dissatisfaction persisted. Most striking across reviews is his reputation for fixing previous failed rhinoplasties and restoring both function (breathing) and appearance (natural symmetry). Patients praise his precision, calm demeanor, and willingness to explain masculine or feminine feature preservation. The clinic itself is described as spotless and professionally organized.

Dr. Rose Plastic Surgery
4.9(85)✓ Google-verified

Dr. Rose listens intently during consultations, takes time to address concerns, and delivers results that consistently exceed patient expectations. Patients report feeling genuinely cared for rather than rushed, with the surgeon personally checking in after surgery by phone and FaceTime. Her team coordinates easy access to answers, minimizes scarring, and supports recovery with attention that patients credit as the difference between stress and confidence. A physician even referred three of his own patients after seeing her work firsthand.

FORM Face + Body Toronto Plastic Surgery, Med Spa & Hair Transplant
4.8(493)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report excellent results and compassionate care from Dr. Somogyi and his team, with clean facilities and staff who take time to answer questions. However, two one-star reviews detail serious concerns: inadequate tissue removal during revision surgery and poor post-operative follow-up in one case; nipple loss and asymmetry during breast reconstruction with unaddressed complications in another.

Dr. Lawrence Tong: Yorkville Institute of Plastic Surgery
4.8(208)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Dr. Tong's clinic earns strong marks for blepharoplasty, liposuction, and body contouring, with patients praising his precision and natural aesthetic across multiple procedures. His team consistently calms nervous patients through detailed pre-op consultation and hands-on post-op care. A small group of facelift patients reported progressive unwanted changes and unmet promises around revision surgery, creating a meaningful counterweight to otherwise exceptional feedback. Most patients felt heard rather than upsold and commended staff by name (Shannon, Jean, Cherry, Catherine) for warmth and attentiveness. Recovery timelines align across reviews: swelling subsides within days to a week for facial procedures. The 4.8-star rating across 208 reviews sits above the non-surgical category average, yet the three-review cluster of facelift disappointment signals a specific service line deserving scrutiny.

Dr. Ashlin Alexander
4.7(118)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Dr. Alexander consistently delivers refined results that patients describe as natural and balanced with their features, not overdone. Reviewers across rhinoplasty, blepharoplasty, brow lift, and reconstructive cases praise his listening skills, artistic eye, and the responsive, caring manner of his team-many note they travel to Toronto specifically to see him again and refer friends without hesitation. His practice handles functional improvements (deviated septum, breathing) alongside aesthetic changes with equal precision. Recovery typically progresses smoothly with minimal bruising and swelling; staff follow up regularly. One reviewer flagged difficulty scheduling multiple procedures back-to-back, but no other service or outcome complaints appear in the recent reviews.

Dr David Boudana | Toronto Plastic Surgeon | Breast Augmentation in Toronto, Abdominoplasty / Tummy Tuck | Cosmetic Surgery
5.0(75)✓ Google-verified

Patients consistently describe Dr. Boudana as a surgeon who listens carefully during consultation and delivers results that feel natural and exceed expectations. His team, including nurses like Jennifer and Hayley, provide attentive post-operative care and remain accessible for questions throughout recovery. Surgeries reviewed include breast procedures (reduction, lift, augmentation, lipofilling), extended abdominoplasty, body contouring after weight loss, and complex reconstructions. One patient noted the clinic's care during post-operative seroma management. One review flagged delayed email responses after paying for consultation.

Dr. Mike Roskies
4.7(135)✓ Google-verified

Across nearly a decade of deep plane facelifts, rhinoplasties, and blepharoplasties, Dr. Roskies delivers results patients describe as refreshed rather than transformed. His hallmark is restraint: patients repeatedly note looking like themselves, just better rested, and strangers rarely guess they had surgery. His team tracks you through every stage. Nurses call pre-op to answer last-minute questions, reach out with FaceTime check-ins during recovery, and follow up long past standard milestones (one patient saw him for 2.5 years after initial consultation). Patients who felt guarded before surgery report leaving the office confident in his judgment. The lone friction point: one reviewer felt a hard sales approach during booking.

Lawrence Park Plastic Surgery - Dr. Mathew A. Plant, MD, FRCSC
4.9(102)✓ Google-verified

Across 28 five-star reviews, patients consistently praise Dr. Plant's precision, natural outcomes, and the team's genuine attentiveness from first call through recovery. His consultations take time to listen; his surgical approach minimizes scars and downtime. Staff including Maryanne, Danielle, and Leigh-Anne are described as patient and kind. One one-star review from a year ago alleges office miscommunication, dismissive behaviour during preop, and a hostile interaction over email mistakes. The practice spans breast work (augmentation, lifts, reduction, revision, removal), body procedures (tummy tuck, liposuction, lipo 360, BBL), facial surgery (blepharoplasty, otoplasty), and labiaplasty. Post-op follow-up is consistent; one reviewer noted the team helped arrange transport to nearby accommodation. The surgeon is board-certified and lists FRCSC credentials.

Dr Chad Wu, Plastic Surgeon in Toronto | Breast Augmentation, Blepharoplasty, Tummy tuck, Labiaplasty
4.8(105)✓ Google-verified

Most patients experience swift healing and results they're thrilled with, backed by attentive pre- and post-op care. Dr Wu handles breast surgery, body contouring, hand reconstruction, and minor removals with precision. One serious complaint involved a carpal tunnel patient who developed an infection after early suture removal and felt dismissed when complications arose, though the vast majority report professional, compassionate treatment. The practice maintains a calm, welcoming environment and communicates clearly about procedures and timelines. Natural-looking outcomes and pain-free recoveries are consistent themes. Patients specifically note Dr Wu's skill in preserving function and sensation during reconstructive work, as well as his attentiveness during surgery itself.

Toronto Plastic Surgery Center: Dr. Asif Pirani / Breast Augmentation / Facelift / Tummy Tuck / Botox / Eyelid Surgery
4.7(172)✓ Google-verified

Most reviewers experience detailed consultations, personalized attention, and strong communication from Dr. Pirani and his team, with care coordinator Naushin repeatedly noted for her support. Results consistently appear natural and aligned with patient goals, and recovery is described as smooth with minimal complications. Two one-star reviews stand out: one patient felt pressured to accept smaller implants against her stated goals and later regretted the outcome; another reported poor communication, dismissive attitudes, and disappointing results. The clinic's response to criticism via public replies has also drawn comment. The overwhelming majority praise both the surgeon's skill and the office culture, though transparency around surgical philosophy and implant sizing strategy emerges as a gap for some.

Dr. Dimitrios Motakis
5.0(36)✓ Google-verified

Every review mentions precise, natural results that look refreshed rather than overdone, paired with Dr. Motakis's calm, listening approach during consultation. Staff actively answer questions, arrange follow-up care, and patients consistently report confidence and compliments weeks after surgery, from facelifts and blepharoplasty to neck lifts and arm lifts.

Power Plastic Surgery
4.6(246)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Most reviewers praise Dr. Power and her all-female team for thorough consultations, professional expertise, and genuine care that makes them feel empowered and comfortable throughout surgery and recovery. The clinic excels at explaining options without pressure, offering natural results, and providing attentive follow-up. Exceptions report appointment delays, strict cancellation rules, and frustration when requesting revisions or feeling dismissed about concerns. Services span breast work, labiaplasty, eyelid and ear surgery, and scar revision. Prices start at $2,960 for labiaplasty and $11,200 for breast augmentation. Some patients waited six weeks for appointments or experienced long waits on the day; one felt the practice was disorganized and Dr. Power unavailable during aftercare.

Bray Peter

#20Bray Peter

80
4.9(35)✓ Google-verified

Dr. Bray earns consistent praise for surgical precision, calm demeanor, and results that meet or exceed patient hopes across reconstructive, body contouring, and aesthetic procedures. His team-including nurses Paulette and Andrea, coordinators Dwayna and others-is remembered by name for genuine care and responsiveness throughout recovery. One older complaint about virtual-only consultations appears isolated; current reviews describe thorough in-person visits and honest guidance even when declining to operate. The clinic handles gynecomastia, breast augmentation and lift, liposuction with contouring, tummy tucks, lower body lifts, BBL, and revision cases that other surgeons turned away. Recovery support, minimal scarring, and transparent cost quotes are consistently mentioned. Patients note they felt heard and never pressured into procedures.

Steven A. Hanna, MD
4.9(79)✓ Google-verified

Dr. Hanna and his team earn consistent praise for rhinoplasty, facelift, breast augmentation, and body contouring. Reviewers describe him as skilled, unhurried, and genuinely attentive to comfort and results. Staff members including Isabel, Kimberly, and Kat are named for their care and gentleness. One substantial complaint documents a disappointing Brazilian butt lift with revision where fat transfer didn't survive, dents appeared, and the reviewer felt misled about fat volume disclosures and aftercare protocols. The patient also reports a breach of photo privacy. The 78 five-star reviews stand in contrast to this one detailed negative account.

Dr. Cory Torgerson Facial Cosmetic Surgery & Laser Centre | Facelift • Blepharoplasty • Lip Filler • Rhinoplasty Toronto
4.3(498)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Patients consistently report polished results and confidence in Dr. Torgerson's technical skill, particularly for rhinoplasty and eyelid procedures. The clinic environment feels welcoming, and staff members including Summer, Anna, and Thalia are named specifically for attentiveness. A small but vocal minority report serious post-op complications such as impaired eye closure and chronic nasal breathing issues, with claims that risks were not fully disclosed beforehand. The business offers injectables, laser treatments, chemical peels, and surgical procedures across facial, body, and reconstructive categories. Consultations include 3D imaging simulation. Notable positive experiences span multiple procedures over years, though revision cases appear to be a consistent pain point.

Toronto Plastic Surgeons Wellness Centre
5.0(11)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

All 11 reviewers gave five stars, citing Shelby and the team's warmth and expertise. Patients report minimal pain and quick recovery from Morpheus8, IPL, laser hair removal, Ellacor, and beard transplants, with staff providing clear aftercare guidance and comfort measures like numbing cream and laughing gas.

Dr. Haley Augustine - Toronto Plastic Surgeon
5.0(13)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Every review is five stars. Patients consistently describe Dr. Augustine as thorough, patient, and genuinely kind. The Forrest Hill clinic team (including nurses Mel, Jennifer, and Hayley, and coordinator Anna) earned repeated praise for supportive care before and after surgery. Immediate visible results and attentive aftercare appear across multiple procedures, from breast augmentation to abdominoplasty and tummy tucks.

Dr. Philip Solomon - Solomon Facial Plastic (Toronto Office)
4.3(257)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report smooth recoveries and natural-looking outcomes after rhinoplasty, facelifts, and eyelid work. Dr. Solomon's team consistently receives praise for kindness, organization, and follow-up care. However, a small number of reviewers cite unresponsiveness to booking inquiries, rude receptionists, and concerns about unprofessional conduct in the clinic; one patient reported a serious surgical complication requiring corrective work elsewhere. The business handles complex revision cases and combines surgical procedures with advanced treatments like CO2 laser resurfacing. Staff members, including Nancy, are named as part of the positive experience. The rating reflects strong satisfaction among most patients alongside significant reservations from roughly one in five reviewers about communication, professionalism, and outcomes.

Dr. Babak Maleki
4.5(168)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report Dr. Maleki delivers natural-looking results with warm, thorough consultations and responsive aftercare. Staff actively support recovery, and his dual training as an ophthalmologist and oculoplastic surgeon resonates with patients seeking eye-area expertise. However, a small but serious minority experienced major deviations from agreed surgical plans. One patient had aggressive skin removal despite documenting a conservative 1mm target; another underwent CO2 laser without consent and faced multiple post-op complications including asymmetry and functional problems. These patients felt unheard during surgery-day consultations and reported delayed or incomplete disclosure of complications in medical records.

Dr. Mitchell Brown, Toronto Plastic Surgery
4.3(56)✓ Google-verified

Patients consistently credit Dr. Brown with exceptional surgical results and life-changing outcomes, particularly in breast work. His approach combines technical skill with genuine care: he listens closely during consultation, explains procedures clearly, and maintains engaged follow-up from surgery day through recovery. The team (staff like Krysta, Melanie, Paulina, and aesthetician Taylor) is praised for warmth and organization. However, a small number flag poor results with facial injectables and concern about the practice's response to complaints.

Dr. Richard Rival – Cedarvale Aesthetic Surgery | Rhinoplasty
4.4(99)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report exceptional outcomes and a supportive team, with Dr. Rival praised for respecting facial harmony and crafting natural results. However, a small number describe rushed, dismissive consultations and, in isolated cases, unaddressed complications and poor follow-up, with at least one patient reporting both breathing difficulties and aesthetic dissatisfaction years post-op. Strengths centre on septorhinoplasty and revision rhinoplasty work, where reviewers highlight combined functional and cosmetic gains. His practice operates with named staff (Mandy, Lynn, Lyne mentioned), thorough pre- and post-op guidance, and a calm clinic environment. Concerns surface around consultation pacing and responsiveness to revision requests.

Upsize Penis Enlargement
5.0(5)✓ Google-verifiedPublishes prices

Five reviewers gave five-star ratings over the past year. Most praise Dr. Rice's technical skill and the simplicity of the procedure, noting 30 to 45 minute appointments with minimal bruising and manageable pain. Recovery was easier than expected, and patients reported being satisfied with results.

Face Toronto
4.4(113)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report excellent outcomes with careful consultation, minimal complications, and warm care throughout recovery. A small but serious group experienced surgical errors, particularly over-aggressive eyelid work and filler mishaps, followed by dismissal of concerns and no meaningful revision options offered. Most surgeries here are rhinoplasty and eyelid procedures. When things go well, results feel natural and staff stay involved post-op. The main caveat: eyelid surgery carries documented risk of over-removal, and the clinic has not clearly addressed these failures in public responses.

Andres Gantous, MD
4.5(44)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report exceptional experiences: rhinoplasties and revisions yield natural results, breathing improves, and the team is genuinely attentive from consultation through recovery. A small but vocal minority faced lasting complications-asymmetry, persistent pain, infections, and nerve damage-that went unaddressed despite Dr. Gantous being aware of their concerns. Success appears strongest for straightforward rhinoplasties and some revision cases; outcomes are less predictable for complex reconstructions or when pre-existing conditions exist. Strength lies in his expertise with saddle nose deformity and post-cleft cases. The clinic's front desk (Vanessa) and nursing staff are consistently praised.

Toronto Eyelid Surgery
4.3(73)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report Dr. Maleki combines technical skill with genuine care, delivering natural-looking blepharoplasty and fat transfer results with strong follow-up support. A minority describe major misalignment between consultation goals and actual surgical outcome, along with dismissive staff responses when challenging results. The clinic's non-surgical offerings (laser, Botox, fillers) and surgical aftercare earn consistent praise. Named staff like Christina, Kay, Sunny, and Hatel draw specific mention for responsiveness and skill. Two detailed negative reviews cite aggressive skin excision beyond agreed limits and misleading laser package sales tactics.

Visage Clinic
4.2(120)✓ Google-verified

Most patients report thorough consultations, natural results, and staff who treat them as individuals rather than appointment slots. Dr. Marc Dupéré and his team (Bruna, Elizabeth, Jay, Ray) are regularly praised for genuine care during recovery and follow-up. However, a small group describe severe, lasting complications from facial and implant procedures that went unaddressed after initial post-op visits, with phone calls going unanswered and no follow-up support offered when problems emerged. The clinic excels at injectable work and body procedures for many, but facial surgery and implant cases carry documented risk of poor outcomes without adequate aftercare response. Patients report the facility is clean and welcoming, with thoughtful recovery details. The divide is sharp: those with successful surgeries become lifelong patients; those facing complications feel abandoned.

Cosmetic Surgery Institute
5.0(22)✓ Google-verified

Reviewers consistently describe transformative outcomes sustained over years, with Dr. Carmen earning trust for discouraging unnecessary procedures and prioritizing patient goals over sales. Staff expertise shines through overnight monitoring, detailed pre-surgery consultation, and follow-up calls within 24 hours of discharge. Named team members (Sharuta, Marycar, Alicia, Anita) appear repeatedly across reviews. Breast augmentation and reconstructive surgery dominate feedback, with patients noting minimal scarring and fast recovery. The practice draws referrals from friends and medical professionals. No complaints surfaced.

Dr Basil Hassouneh

#35Dr Basil Hassouneh

62 low data
5.0(8)✓ Google-verified

All eight reviews are five-star. Patients report natural results across surgical and injectable treatments, with praise for Dr. Basil's attention to what they wanted and his team's comfort-focused approach. Work includes facial surgery, rhinoplasty, injectables, and brow/eyelid procedures.

The Toronto Plastic Surgery Clinic
4.0(26)✓ Google-verified

Strong surgeons, inconsistent patient experience. Dr. Weinberg earns consistent praise for reconstructive work, breast surgery, and noticeable results; multiple patients report traveling from across the GTA and calling him an artist. However, a meaningful minority experienced dismissive, rushed, or outright rude encounters during consultations and follow-ups, with some complaints going unresolved for months. Aftercare stands out when it happens: detailed post-op instructions, email access to the doctor, monthly check-ins. Yet a few reviews note the doctor rushed through post-op appointments or refused to address specific concerns. The team includes a responsive coordinator called Sandy, though front-desk communication can falter.

The Plastic Surgery Clinic
3.8(21)✓ Google-verified

Strong results on body and facial procedures from certain surgeons offset by mixed experiences with wait times, pricing clarity, and some surgical complications. Injections and chemical peels consistently praised; administrative friction and old satellite locations mentioned by reviewers.

Toronto Facial Plastic Surgery
5.0(5)✓ Google-verified

All five reviews praise Dr. Gantous for rhinoplasty work, noting his technical precision and attentive approach. Patients highlight his use of 3D imaging, detailed preoperative counselling, responsive email communication, and willingness to combine procedures when beneficial to facial balance.

Toronto Facial Plastic Surgery: Dr. Andres Gantous
3.0(14)✓ Google-verified

Half of reviews are glowing accounts of life-changing breathing improvements and warm surgical experiences, while the other half describe prolonged post-op complications, dismissive follow-up care, and a surgeon perceived as uncaring toward outcomes. Patients on OHIP coverage report especially poor treatment and difficulty accessing revision help; those paying privately appear more satisfied overall.

Common questions about reconstructive & hand surgery

How much does hand surgery cost in Toronto?
If the surgery is medically necessary, such as carpal tunnel release, tendon repair, or trauma reconstruction, it's typically covered by OHIP and there's no out-of-pocket cost beyond a possible surgeon's assessment fee if you're self-referring. Cosmetic add-ons or fully elective procedures not deemed medically necessary can run from a few hundred to several thousand dollars depending on complexity, and won't be covered.
How do I know if I need hand surgery or if physiotherapy will work?
Most surgeons will want you to try conservative treatment first, such as splinting, injections, or physiotherapy, especially for conditions like carpal tunnel syndrome or trigger finger. Surgery usually gets recommended when symptoms persist after several weeks to months of non-surgical treatment, or when there's clear structural damage (a torn tendon, a displaced fracture) that won't heal on its own.
What does recovery from reconstructive hand surgery actually involve?
It varies a lot by procedure. Carpal tunnel release often allows light activity within days with full recovery in a few weeks. Tendon repairs and more complex reconstructive work can mean weeks in a splint or cast followed by months of occupational therapy to regain strength and range of motion. Ask your surgeon for a realistic timeline specific to your case and whether they coordinate directly with a hand therapist.
How can I judge the quality of a reconstructive surgeon before booking?
Check for board certification and any additional hand or reconstructive fellowship training, ask how often they perform the specific procedure you need, and look at how they handle complications and follow-up care. Patient reviews that mention post-surgical function and communication during recovery tend to be more useful here than reviews focused purely on aesthetics.
