Hand surgery is a multidisciplinary subspecialty of general surgery, plastic surgery and orthopaedic surgery. Its goal is restoration of useful upper extremity function that has been compromised by congenital anomaly, acute injury, cumulative trauma, infection or degenerative disorder.

Hand surgery is a comprehensive specialty. All aspects of the upper extremity involving the skin, muscles, tendons, bones, joints, nerves and blood vessels are within the expertise of the hand surgeon.

All of the hand surgeons at Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation Center of New Jersey are Board Certified Orthopaedic Surgeons. They have also completed one additional year of Fellowship Training in Hand Surgery. They have received the Certificate of Added Qualifications in Surgery of the Hand by the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery.

The treatments used by our hand surgeons may be surgical or nonsurgical. After a comprehensive evaluation of the problem, a full explanation of treatment options is given to the patient.

Barbara Schroeder MD, Obstetrics & Gynecology, TX

Barbara Schroeder. MD
Barbara Schroeder, Gynecology, TX

Dr. Schroeder is board-certified in Obstetrics and Gynecology and has been in practice since 1995. She was born in Mexico City and moved to Houston at the age of six where she was raised.  She attended Trinity University in San Antonio where she earned a Bachelor of Arts in French and minored in German with honors.  She earned her Medical Degree at the University of Texas in San Antonio and remained there completing her residency training in Obstetrics and Gynecology in 1995.  She spent three years working in private practice in Galveston while her husband was pursuing his training and has actively practiced in Houston since 1998.

Dr. Schroeder has thoroughly enjoyed practicing in Houston.  As Houston has become an international city, the fact that she speaks German, Spanish, and some French have been of tremendous benefit.

Although Dr. Schroeder enjoys all aspects of her specialty, she has a particular interest in minimally invasive gynecology and has spent the last 12+ years of her career dedicated to perfecting her laparoscopic skills.  In addition, she has received training in robotic gynecologic surgery and has incorporated this into her practice.

Michael Bahk, Orthopaedic Surgeon, CA

Michael Bahk MD
Michael Bahk, Orthopaedic Surgeon

Dr. Michael Bahk attended Northwestern University with a Bachelor of Arts in English studies. Within his English studies, he was selected to participate in a select Writing major and was ultimately awarded the Edwin L. Shuman Essay Award. He subsequently graduated Summa Cum Laude. He was also a part of the Honors Program in Medical Education (HPME) and attended medical school at Northwestern University in Chicago, Illinois. He graduated as one of the top of his class with Alpha Omega Alpha (AOA) distinctions. He was also awarded the American Academy of Neurology Award for Excellence in Neurological Science upon graduation.

He subsequently completed his internship and orthopedic residency training at one of the nation's top hospitals, Johns Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore, Maryland. He worked for five years under some of the country's leading surgeons. While at Johns Hopkins, he gained extensive training in pediatric orthopedics and adolescent sports medicine. He helped take care of NCAA Division I collegiate athletes on the Johns Hopkins lacrosse team as well as professional athletes on the Baltimore Orioles and the Baltimore Ravens. He has published numerous papers in journals such as the Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, Journal of Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, Journal of Arthroscopic and Related Surgery, American Journal of Sports Medicine and Journal of Knee Surgery.

After residency, Dr. Bahk completed a Sports Medicine fellowship at the Southern California Orthopedic Institute and trained under some of the nation's founding and pioneering arthroscopic surgeons. He continued to write book chapters and present research at national meetings such as the Arthroscopy Association of North America (AANA) in addition to covering local high school sports teams.

Given the complexity of the shoulder and elbow, Dr. Bahk wished to expand his understanding of these joints and completed a second fellowship in Shoulder and Elbow surgery in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania with the Rothman Institute at Thomas Jefferson University. This was a one year dedicated program in arthroscopic and open surgery of the shoulder and elbow including shoulder and elbow replacements, fracture care and tendon transfers. He worked with world-renown shoulder and elbow surgeons and was a recipient of a $45,000 Orthopaedic Research and Education Fund (OREF) grant to understand venous thromboembolic disease and upper extremity arthroplasty. He is excited about this research and hopes it will lead to better patient care.

Dr. Bahk grew up all over the nation including New York, Michigan, Texas and even briefly overseas. His parents still reside overseas and his siblings live in New York and San Francisco. He appreciates his broad and diverse background growing up all over the world and training throughout the nation. He is excited to settle down in California and take care of patients in Thousand Oaks, Simi Valley and Van Nuys.
