Adam T. Griska, M.D.

Locations

A graduate of Tufts University School of Medicine, Dr. Adam Griska joined the Orthopedic Associates of Lancaster team in 2015. He is fellowship trained in hand surgery, including elbow arthroscopy, reconstruction, and replacement.

Whether it’s treating finger injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, wrist fractures, or hand arthritis, nothing is more satisfying to him than restoring people’s upper extremity function and allowing them to return to using their hands without pain.

When Dr. Griska isn’t taking care of patients, he can be found spending time with his wife and children.
