Services
Proliance Hand, Wrist & Elbow Physicians was founded as Washington Hand Surgery in Bellevue in 1983 by Edward North, MD. Our name change reflects how our treatment focus now includes not only the hands, but wrists and elbows as well. Prior to the opening of PHWE, patients on the Eastside who had complicated problems of the hands or upper extremities were sent to Seattle.
With a shared dedication to hand surgery, our group of four board certified orthopedic hand and wrist specialist surgeons specializes in problems involving the hand, wrist and forearm. Hand surgeons are specially trained to diagnose your hand condition and to recommend appropriate treatment options - often with no surgery required.
Our onsite therapists are available at our Kirkland and Bellevue locations to be able to offer the full spectrum of care to our patients. By working closely with hand surgeons, our hand therapists thoroughly assess the patient's abilities and design an individualized treatment program that leads to restoration of optimal function.
Proliance Hand, Wrist & Elbow Physicians located in Kirkland, Bellevue, Issaquah, Redmond & Bothell provide high-quality care directed at returning you to maximum function as quickly as possible.
While many problems can be cared for without surgery, our hand, wrist & elbow physicians are specially trained to operate when necessary - this includes minimally invasive procedures such as endoscopic carpal tunnel release and arthroscopic wrist surgery and thumb ligament tear repair.

I came to see Dr Guyette for chronic arm and wrist pain due entirely to my 34 year career working with computers. He did not initially suggest surgery, which I like from a surgeon. He listened carefully, then sent me off for nerve testing, then a cortisone injection. I ended up with carpel tunnel surgery which ended my arm pain! I have the tiniest incision and after a month, I am remarkably better. Really wish I had done this 10 years ago!

5 stars because Dr Todd Guyette is a gifted Surgeon! First, he is a regular person that talks to you very nicely like a friend. And more importantly he is professional, educated, experienced, and has a solid technical approach. Then most importantly he can deliver as a hands on (no pun intended) Surgeon who knows what he's doing with high accuracy and precision in the surgical execution. I'm 62 yrs old been playing classical flamenco and rock guitar since I was 8 years old. I'm a 40-year veteran Materials Engineer and don't rely on my band/music for income but rely on my

I had a bad broken wrist and needed additional surgery. I was referred to Dr. Guyettes office. Connor was the first to greet me. He introduced himself and explained the process. After surgery I did my physical therapy with Kristin who was also so friendly and nice. She too took the time to explain the process and what to expect throughout the rehab process.
Dr. Guyette work is fantastic. I needed a plate and screws put in. 10 weeks later, I have my complete motion back. The healing process was far better than I could have ever expected.
What a great team!

I was referred to Dr. Guyette for treatment of my ganglion cyst. He was thoughtful in his approach to determining whether surgery was needed. He ordered an ultrasound which revealed how deep the cyst was and reviewed the pros and cons of surgery. During surgery, he and his team were compassionate and communicative.
Dr. Guyette works with a wonderful team. There is virtually no wait time, the office is beautiful and the people who support him treat patients like royalty.
Follow up visits went well. I'm actually going to miss seeing Dr. Guyette because I like him so much!

Dr. Guyette is terrific and everything you want in a surgeon - precise, communicative, highly skilled and a good sense of humor to boot.
I had a thumb CMC Arthroplasty at the end of October. My surgery went well with no complications. I had complete confidence in the outcome because my surgeon and his staff made sure I knew the details and potential difficulties, as well as supported me in my rehab.
Shout out to Kristin Rosen and Kathy Nielson, OTR for the therapy that has helped with recovery and restoration. They are the best hand therapists out there.

Dr. Guyette has successfully seen me through three hand/wrist/elbow issues of varying complexity and duration, some requiring surgery. In addition to the great outcomes I have experienced all three times, Dr. Guyette is caring, empathetic, and informative along the way. His staff demonstrates excellent teamwork, appointments are held promptly and efficiently, and billing is both clear and accurate. In short summary, Dr. Guyette and his team at PHWE have my highest recommendation if you need these kind of medical services. ---M. Heier

Dr Guyette is one of the most outstanding and exceptional doctors I have ever been to. He is genuinely compassionate and listens to his patient and makes you feel like he is 100% present and interested in helping find the best treatment for your injury. I was having pain from 4 trigger fingers in my hand. Not only did Dr Guyette explain to me the cause of my medical problems, but also tried corticosteroid injections for a few months before discussing surgery. The doctor made sure to keep the surgical procedure as minimally traumatic as he possibly could. His staff are kind and friendly too. Truly

Dr. Guyette is an amazing medical professional with a calm and easy going approach to his patients. He helped me through the process of healing my injured thumb starting with a shot which only provided a short term fix and ultimately surgery which gave me back full use. His support staff are friendly and willing to assist with any questions. I showed up for my surgery at the wrong location and they were amazing (at both locations) to help get me re-directed and into surgery without needing to reschedule (even though I was 20 minutes late when I arrived at the correct location). Although I was full

Dr. Guyette is the only hand doctor I will recommend to any of my family and friends. I cannot say enough on how well I was treated. He took the time to explain and treat the situation I was having with my hand with care and concern. The staff is excellent and they treat you as a person. That is rarity these days. Always pleasant and happy. The complex is high tech and no rescheduling for a x-ray, or MRI. The surgery center is right there too. They do medicine right.

Dr. Guyette was very helpful and friendly and informative. Took the time to explain my xrays and his diagnosis and suggested treatment. Had to wait a bit to get an apt, but worth it. Very nice office staff. Lots of parking around building. Coffee stand inside building. If you need a doctor or surgeon for your hand, wrist or elbow - Proliance Hand, Wrist & Elbow Physicians (now called Pro Hand) are great. Oh, xrays, mri s and physical therapy on site/in bldg.
