In honour of World Hand Hygiene Day, we’re reminding our patients that the simplest way to prevent post-op complications is thorough handwashing. Whether you’re adjusting your eye shield, installing eye drops or changing a dressing, be sure to wash your hands.

The Rule of 20:

It’s about how long you wash. Spend 20 seconds of active washing, lathering between your fingers and under your nails, before you begin your aftercare routine.

Wash before you touch!

Please watch this video to learn how to wash your hands properly: https://youtu.be/3PmVJQUCm4E?si=4xCT_yDbojhJ_RNB

George Surgical Centre would like to congratulate Garden Route Hand Surgeon, Dr. PC Pelser, on reaching a remarkable milestone in his surgical career by performing his 100th CMC joint replacement!

What is a CMC joint replacement?

A CMC joint replacement is a surgical procedure where the arthritic joint at the base of the thumb, called the carpometacarpal (CMC) joint, is removed and replaced with an artificial implant, typically done to alleviate pain and improve function caused by arthritis in that area; essentially, it's a thumb joint replacement surgery.

A successful CMC joint replacement can significantly improve thumb function, reduce pain, and allow for better hand movement.

The Garden Route Hand Unit, based in Gloucester Lane, George, specializes in the management of all diseases and injuries affecting the hand, elbow and peripheral nerves.

Refractive surgery is a procedure that corrects near-sightedness, astigmatism and sometimes farsightedness. This can be done by implanting a lens into the eye or reshaping the cornea with a laser.
