George L. Yeh M.D. Physician

Biography

George L. Yeh, MD joined the Potomac Valley Orthopedic Associates division in 2002. Dr. Yeh specializes in Hand and Upper Extremity surgery. He is interested in treating problems of the hand, wrist, elbow, and shoulder, including everything from carpal tunnel syndrome to ganglion cysts, from tendonitis to arthritis, and from the freakish Fido-related finger fracture to the pesky paper cut. Dr. Yeh especially enjoys knowing his patients on a personal level. And he takes great pleasure in helping them recover and have fun with their favorite pastimes, whether it involves the steely stamina of sports, or the nimble knuckles of knitting, or even the tick-tock tapping of texting. Dr. Yeh sees patients in Montgomery County and Howard County at the Olney, Maryland office, the Columbia, Maryland office and the Leisure World office in Silver Spring, Maryland.
