Board-Certified, Fellowship-Trained Hand Surgeon Serving San Antonio for Over 10 Years
Fellowship-Trained Hand Surgeon in San Antonio
Your hands are involved in nearly everything you do, so when pain, numbness, or stiffness shows up, it touches every part of your day. Dr. Brent Jackson is a board-certified orthopedic surgeon with Subspecialty Certification in Hand Surgery who has cared for San Antonio patients for more than a decade. He completed his hand and upper extremity fellowship right here at the Hand Center of San Antonio, and his solo practice on Sonterra Boulevard means you see the same doctor at every visit and talk to a real person every time you call.

Wide-Awake Hand Surgery in San Antonio
Dr. Jackson is one of the few San Antonio hand surgeons offering wide-awake hand surgery, performed under local anesthesia with no general anesthesia and, in most cases, no pre-op testing or fasting. Patients recover faster, spend less, and go home the same day feeling like themselves. It is an especially good option if a health condition makes general anesthesia risky for you.

What to Expect at Your First Visit
We start by listening. Dr. Jackson reviews your history and any imaging, examines your hand and wrist, and orders additional diagnostics only if they are needed. You leave with a plain-language explanation of what is going on and a clear set of options, starting with non-surgical treatment whenever that is the right path.
