Biography

Dr. Bachoura is a board-eligible orthopaedic surgeon who specializes in hand and upper extremity surgery; wrist, hand and elbow arthroscopy; nerve surgery; and orthopaedic surgery. His most common procedures are wrist arthroscopy, carpal tunnel release, cubital tunnel release, nerve injury repair, trigger finger release, wrist fracture fixation, thumb arthritis surgery, tendon laceration repair and Dupuytren’s contracture surgery.

Dr. Bachoura became an orthopaedic surgeon because he finds helping patients maintain and improve their hand and upper extremity function rewarding.

Dr. Bachoura’s compassionate care sets him apart. He also has specialized training in hand surgery and enjoys working with patients and their families to develop individualized treatment plans.

Outside of orthopaedics, Dr. Bachoura enjoys spending time with his family, working out, playing soccer and travelling.
