Julie R. Ohayon, MD

I had complications from medication I have to take to prevent a recurrence of breast cancer that caused serious inflammatory, joint problems. I ended up having carpal tunnel, trigger thumb and trigger fingers. Dr. Ohayon tried conservative methods first, hand braces, cortisone before suggesting surgery. She operated four times on both hands, fingers, and thumbs. These procedures were amazing. After months of pain I was pain free after brief recovery periods. She is brilliant! I’m giving five stars for her skill, her caring and her professionalism.

Dr. Ohayon was excellent at explaining my hand injury to me, what it’s limitations are and offered me the choice of a brace (which she gave me) or a cast.
She was prompt in her appointment time, I didn’t have to wait (unlike many other doctor’s) and in giving me a written report for my disability case.

Dr. Ohayun saw us immediately and took great care of my child. She was very considerate and skilled. Dr. Ohayun made a special arrangement for my child’s cast so that she would be comfortable and able to have use of her other fingers. This is something that the technicians and doctors at our previous healthcare wouldn’t even consider possible. It pays to go to an expert. We are certainly impressed. Thank you Dr Ohayon.

Had my first visit with Dr. Ohayon yesterday and was thoroughly pleased from the front desk staff, Med. Assistant to Dr. Ohayon herself! She was very pleasant, professional & I did not feel rushed at all and she answered all of my questions regarding my fractured wrist. Look forward to my follow up visits and getting all healed for next years snowboarding season!

I did my own research on Dupuytrens Disease which affects the hands of Celtic, Germanic and Nordic peoples. Prior to a new drug approval, a few years ago, one had to get the invasive collagen removed by surgery, which a friend at my gym showed me what he had done several years ago and it was not pretty
.
A friend of mine’s wife who also suffers from this inherited disease recommended that I contact Dr. Ohayon. First visit was interview and analysis. She got right to the professional point and told me what needed to be done using this new drug approved in 2012. I also had another Dr. my orthopedists of many years who said there was nothing that could be done with Dupuytrens Disease and I could only watch over the years as some of my fingers bent from parallel to 60 degrees going to 90 degree angle
.
When I told Dr. Ohayon what the other MD said she was confident she could help.
Next visit injection of new drug into invasive collagen bands which she did systematically. She told me what to expect and I returned the next day for the breaking of the collagen bands without surgery. It worked, I wore a hand brace at night for two weeks and the middle finger that was at a 60 degree angle is back to almost parallel with my other fingers of the right hand.
If you want hand holding, no pun intended, Dr Ohayon is not your MD. If you want knowledge and professionalism toward your hand malady she is a true professional that is direct, and most important results oriented.
Great job Dr. Ohayon!

Dr. Julie Ohayon operated on my finger 2 years ago and I have had a perfect recovery with no recurrence. I saw her again this morning for another finger issue and she was professional and delightful as always. I highly recommend Dr. Ohayon for any finger or hand pain.

If your condition can’t be treated with surgery, this is not the dr. to see! Her recommendation to address my condition was the quick fix cortison injection, which we all know, doesn’t help one heal, just results in the pain not being felt for some short amount of time, after which, your condition is actually worse. Her manner was dismissive and she did not consider all the symptoms I shared with her in her diagnosis and treatment plan. I was actually worse after seeing her than when I went to her and I ended up having to change doctors. Be careful if this is the dr. you end up seeing.
