Hand Day 2024

Orthopedic Associates, Kettering Health and Team Health are partnering again this year to deliver free hand surgeries to qualifying patients without insurance at the Hand & Orthopedic Center of Excellence within the Southview Medical Center, September 15th.

“Every year we look forward to Hand Day Dayton because it allows us to provide much-needed care to those who may not be able to afford it otherwise,” said OA’s Dr. Adam Dann. “Performing these complimentary surgeries allows us to further live our mission of improving the lives of our community members.”

In honor of this community event here is a look back at previous patient, Patti Bachman, and how her experience with Hand Day changed her life. Read her continued story here and learn more about her background leading up to her surgery.
