Orlando Hand Surgery Associates
Dr. George White founded Orlando Hand Surgery Associates in 1991 and was one of the first orthopedic hand surgeons in Central Florida. He promoted microvascular surgery and replantation in the area and expanded available upper extremity procedures. Dr. White created many new techniques in hand surgery, including thumb reconstruction, distal wrist reconstruction, and the treatment of hand arthritis related to tendinitis. Dr. White has completed over 100,000 surgical procedures in his 40+ year career, expanding Orlando Hand Surgery Associates to include offices in downtown Orlando, Kissimmee, Winter Garden, and Deltona. The practice now handles over 25,000 office visits annually and is considered the leading hand and upper extremity practice, including shoulder and elbow problems, in Central Florida.
Dr. White has been named one of the top 10 shoulder surgeons in the US by Becker’s and one of Orlando’s Doctors of the Year and Best Doctors by Orlando Magazine. He is listed in Who’s Who in the US and Orlando Style Magazine has recognized him as a top-tier professional and one of Orlando’s Men and Women of the Year. Castle Connolly named Dr. White’s practice one of the top orthopedic practices in the United States, and U.S. News & World Report recognized it as one of the top orthopedic practices in the Southeast US.
Dr. White’s most significant contribution to Central Florida is mentoring young, top surgeons who have joined the practice. Doctors Brian White, Anup Patel, Nick Newsum, and Cody Hillin were recruited by Dr. White from prestigious hand surgery programs and have enhanced the reputation of Orlando Hand Surgery Associates. Dr. White’s practice remains active in teaching, research, and patient care for upper extremity issues, including the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder throughout Central Florida.
