Arthritis
Rheumatoid arthritis is a systemic (body-wide) condition that affects bones, joints, tendons and ligaments. Its cause is unknown but it is probably an auto-immune disease, where the body’s immune system attacks one’s own body. It can occur at any age, though the course of the disease is often different if it starts in children rather than adults.
Emergency Care
For the most direct access to our emergency care, please call our office (804-288-9466) at any time. We are committed to providing emergency care in a prompt and compassionate manner.

Pregnancy

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome causes tingling, numbness, and weakness in the hand. It is caused by compression of the median nerve where it enters the hand. The median nerve supplies feeling to the thumb, the index, the middle, and half of the ring finger. This nerve, like all nerves, starts in the spinal cord (in the neck) and travels the full length of the arm and forearm. It enters the hand on the palm side through the carpal canal. In this canal are nine tendons which go out to the fingers and thumb and are responsible for motion at the individual finger joints.

Endocrinologist

Diabetes Care
Hypothyroidism
Increased pressure within this tunnel will cause pressure on the nerve, which causes it to malfunction. Swelling of the tendons within the carpal tunnel increases pressure within the tunnel. Other causes include injury, broken bones, diabetes, hypothyroidism, pregnancy, birth control pills, fluid retention, rheumatoid arthritis, and tumors.

Ultrasound
Our facility is designed with the hand and upper extremity patient in mind. Our records are all housed on site for convenient access. We have X-ray facility as well as fluoroscopy (dynamic X-ray) on site. For specialized studies such as ultrasound, CT scan or MRI, we utilize local facilities with high quality equipment. For those patients who need electrodiagnostic studies (EMG/Nerve Conduction), our studies are done on site (though they will generally not be done the same day that you are seen by Dr. Leibovic).

Minimally Invasive Surgery
Joint Replacement
As with all painful arthritis, rest, immobilization and anti-inflammatory drugs including steroid injections may be helpful. However in advanced cases, surgery may be necessary. Surgery may consist of removal of the arthritic bone surfaces and fusion of the adjacent bones (fusion is when we surgically make two adjacent bones grow together. This eliminates motion at the joint, but usually provides good pain relief), or joint replacement. A metal and plastic joint is available for the wrist, and is useful in many circumstances.
Hand Surgery
When all or a major part of a finger, or multiple fingers, or a hand has been amputated, the focus of treatment is often on reattachment of the amputated part. This must be done by a qualified team headed by a hand surgeon. This is extremely technically demanding surgery which can take many hours. Every structure must be reconnected: bones, tendons, nerves, muscle, arteries and veins. In the case of the fingers, the arteries, veins and nerves are often less than 1 mm. in diameter. Such surgery must be done under a microscope with specialized instruments, sutures and techniques. These techniques have been developed and improved over the last 30 years, but are still only routinely available at specialized centers for hand surgery such as Virginia Hand Center.
Orthopedic Surgery
Dr. Leibovic is board certified by the » American Board of Orthopedic Surgery. He is a member of the » American Society for Surgery of the Hand, and has lectured to residents, fellow physicians, rehabilitation nurses and occupational physicians frequently. He holds the current “Certificate of Added Qualifications for Surgery of the Hand.”

Tennis Elbow
Lateral epicondylitis, or tennis elbow, is an inflammation of the tendons and muscles arising on the lateral epicondyle, or outside of the elbow joint. It is common, and can lead to considerable discomfort.
