Since no doctors provided the BioPro thumb implant here in Grand Rapids, I drove to Lansing to see Dr Clarkson. He explained the procedures he preformed for the CMC joint, that the BioPro implant was not recommended. Any optionsShow more where the trapezium bone was removed was unacceptable. Advising Dr Clarkson regarding my up coming appt with Dr Randy Lovell, he encouraged that I meet with him since he had some other unique techniques. Dr Lovell, did in fact offer a denervation and suspension.
I’ve had the hand issue problem for over 10 years, with severe pain reaching 10/10. Dr. Clarkson quickly assessed the problem and clearly explained everything. We started treatment right away, and he said I should see improvement Show morein a few days. I originally came to him after being told I needed surgery, which worried me due to my age. Thankfully, he offers awake, outpatient procedures—and I may not need surgery at all. Highly recommend him for his clear communication and expertise.

Dr. Clarkson and his staff member Mercedes were wonderful to work with. I was able to be seen within a week of my contacting the office. They listened to my issue, were kind and courteous, and got me set-up with the necessary subsequent appointments. I would definitely recommend Dr. Clarkson and his staff.
I have been very happy with my experience with Dr Clarkson. Very professional and easy to discuss with.
I feel everyone was very professional and I appreciated the expertise shown me and my wife. I have an appointment schedule for 7/17/25 for my recommended test on my right hand. Thank You
Charming, expert, decisive.
Dr. Clarkson is great. He is the second surgeon I have seen for this problem, the first one gave no answers and had no plan. Dr. Clarkson knows what the problem is and how to fix it. He is also very down to earth and easy to talk with.
It has been 2 months since my surgery. My strength has returned and most of the pain is gone. Still having issues with tenderness of surgery site. Hoping that ends within couple weeks. I know my hand was on bad shape before so likely needs extra time
It. Clarkson is very attentive to your issue. From my very first visit, thru surgery, he is very attentive. He explained to me every step of the process. And explained fourth coming events regarding my hand. I ask extremely happy with Dr. Clarkson, super glad I went to him

His expertise, kindness, and consideration were exemplary and much appreciated. As result, I have utmost confidence in Dr. Clarkson and as a patient, feel respected, cared-for, and assured on many levels.
Insofar as surgery can be enjoyable, I enjoyed having Dr CLARKSON as my surgeon. He is very competent and unusually willing to involve the patient in his/her care.
