About Scott D. Ruhlman

I am looking forward to working with your Hand, Shoulder and Elbow conditions. I enjoy treating conditions such as arthritis, fractures, sports injuries and nerve disorders. In addition, I have a particular interest in pediatric upper extremity deformity and disorders. Having trained with some of the leaders in the field at Harvards hand and upper extremity fellowship, I am excited to bring a personal approach to my hometown here in Seattle.
