About Dr. Alfonso Galán
I am Dr. Alfonso Galán Jáuregui, an Orthopedic Surgeon certified by the Mexican Board of Orthopedics and Traumatology, with advanced training in Hand, Wrist, and Microsurgery.
I completed my orthopedic surgery residency at Hospital General de México and advanced training in Hand and Microsurgery at Instituto Nacional de Rehabilitación Luis Guillermo Ibarra Ibarra, two of Mexico’s leading high-volume medical institutions.
My practice is centered on accurate diagnosis, clear communication, and individualized care. I take the time to explain the cause of each condition, review the available treatment options, and recommend a plan based on the patient’s needs, activities, and functional goals.
My goal is to relieve pain, preserve or restore function, and help each patient return safely to everyday activities. Surgery is recommended only when it offers a meaningful advantage over non-surgical treatment.
Precision Beyond the Operating Room
Outside medicine, aviation, scuba diving, motorsports, and golf have strengthened qualities that are also essential in surgery: preparation, situational awareness, disciplined decision-making, and respect for risk.
These activities reflect the way I approach medical care. I value careful planning, attention to detail, and practical solutions that prioritize safety, consistency, and long-term function. Every consultation and procedure is approached with the same level of responsibility and focus.
Specialties & Treatments
I provide specialized evaluation and treatment for conditions affecting the hand, wrist, tendons, nerves, and upper extremity. My approach combines careful clinical assessment, clear explanations, and individualized treatment plans designed to relieve symptoms, protect function, and support an efficient recovery.
Treatment may include rehabilitation, medication, ultrasound-guided procedures, or surgery, depending on the diagnosis and the needs of each patient.
Advanced Hand & Wrist Surgery
I treat fractures, traumatic injuries, tendon damage, nerve injuries, compression syndromes, and degenerative conditions of the hand and wrist. When necessary, microsurgical and reconstructive techniques may be used to repair delicate structures and achieve the best possible functional outcome.
Surgical & Non-Surgical Care
Not every hand or wrist condition requires surgery. I begin with an accurate diagnosis and recommend conservative treatment whenever it can provide a meaningful benefit. When surgery is indicated, I select the most appropriate technique for the specific condition, with careful attention to function, recovery, and the patient’s individual goals.
Sports Injuries & Athlete Care
I evaluate and treat sprains, fractures, tendon injuries, and acute upper-extremity trauma in athletes and active patients. Treatment is focused on healing, mobility, strength, and a safe, progressive return to sport based on the demands of each activity.
Advanced Diagnostics
Musculoskeletal ultrasound can be performed during the consultation to complement the physical examination and evaluate tendons, nerves, joints, and other soft tissues in real time. It may also be used to guide selected procedures when clinically appropriate, helping provide a more complete and efficient evaluation.
