Anjan P. Kaushik, MD
Henry Community Health Provider
Specializing in Hand & Upper Extremity care, I strive to help patients recover from a broad variety of limb conditions, from the fingertips to the shoulders. I chose to practice Orthopaedic hand & upper extremity surgery because the treatments (both nonsurgical and surgical) are directly impactful in getting patients back to using their hands and arms effectively in their occupations, athletic sports, and leisure activities. I am fairly conservative in my treatment approach and try to maximize non-operative options before offering surgery. If surgical treatment is warranted, however, I give patients an honest, evidence-based outlook in regard to the expected outcomes, rehabilitation plans, and time needed to return to activities.
About Dr. Kaushik
Why did you decide to go into healthcare?
I felt that going into healthcare, in particular Orthopaedic Surgery, was the most impactful way to affect the quality of life for people in my community. This path provided a tremendous opportunity to help patients recover from a variety of musculoskeletal illnesses and allow them to return to their work and recreational activities.
Why did you chose to work at HCH?
I chose to work at Henry Community Health because my values dovetail with the hospital’s philosophy, which is centered around kindness and compassion. I offer detailed attention to my patients’ problems, not only for the orthopedic issues at hand but also for the patient as a whole. For all patients who walk into my office, I try to learn about their backgrounds, occupations, and activities or hobbies that they enjoy doing with their hands and arms.
