Where can I see a hand surgeon near Keller?
In short
Keller patients are seen at The Hand and Wrist Institute's Southlake office at 510 E Southlake Blvd. Keller Parkway and E Southlake Blvd are the same road, FM 1709, so the drive from Keller is one continuous run east with no change of road. Dr. John T. Knight is the practice's only surgeon.
Call (817) 382-6789 to have this looked at, or book online with Dr. Knight.
Which office serves Keller, and the drive
Southlake, and the drive is unusually simple for this part of the Metroplex. FM 1709 runs east and west across northeast Tarrant County. Through Keller it is signed as Keller Parkway. Through Southlake it is signed as Southlake Blvd. It is one continuous road with two names, it crosses from Keller into Southlake at Pearson Lane, and the office sits on it.
That means a patient anywhere along Keller Parkway gets on FM 1709 and stays on it, heading east, until the office.
Patients coming up US-377 from the south meet FM 1709 in Keller and turn east from there.
What the visit involves
X-rays are taken in the Southlake office and you review them with Dr. Knight in the same visit, rather than going somewhere else for the X-ray and coming back.
If the exam points to something an X-ray will not show, an MRI or other advanced imaging is done at an imaging facility a few blocks from the office and the results come back to Dr. Knight. Where the diagnosis is not clear from the exam, Dr. Knight will arrange nerve testing and tell you where it is done.
If an operation is the answer, surgery is performed at Legent Surgical Hospital Plano, in Plano, Texas.
Conditions treated for Keller patients
The practice treats the hand, the wrist and the elbow, and nothing else.

- Trigger finger and trigger thumb
- Ganglion cysts of the wrist and hand
- Broken wrist and wrist sprains
- Hand and finger fractures
- Arthritis at the base of the thumb

A hand surgeon, if the finger is bent, will not straighten, or is still painful several days after the injury. A finger that looks jammed can be broken, and the hand fracture page covers what an X-ray is looking for.
