Dr. Eberlin is an amazing person and surgeon. The first opinion I received after my injury basically gave me no hope to ever really be able to use my hand again. Luckily I was able to see Dr. Eberlin and I could not be any more grateful for my outcome. Also, watching him teach and mentor vast groups of students during every step of my treatment is very impressive. Seeing how Mass General operates and experiencing the cutting edge treatment provided by Dr. Eberlin has had an enormously positive impact on my life. Thank you.

My procedure appointment was several months after my initial appointment, yet the doctor seemed to remember me and commented on the growth of one of my cysts. He was very attentive during the surgery and paused to give me more local anesthetic after I indicated I was feeling something sharp. He answered all of my questions and was clear on what restrictions I should follow until my follow-up appointment.
- Reviewed on 11/10/2025
He was very pleasant, but we didn't discuss if there were a need for a graft, what that would entail, whether it would be a synthetic or skin from my hip and how that would go and the dressings and all of that sort of thing. So he did not think a graft would be necessary, which was good news, but we didn't discuss the alternatives, which was disappointing. Thank you.

Yes, I told him about a nerve injection [redacted] I had done. And I came to see him basically for a final approval as to what he thought my overall condition was. He didn't want to listen to it at all. He basically claimed that that was impossible, that they didn't do that. I beg to differ with him. [redacted] So bottom line is he disapproved.

This was a first visit so I am going by my initial encounter with Dr Eberlin who had been highly recommended by my OT. I found him to be affable and interested in my case (hand injury.) He took the time to review my MRI, which was inconclusive. After further discussion, he and I agreed to try ultrasound, which he had available in his office. The ultrasound proved to be more conclusive and we discussed further surgical intervention. Overall it was a very positive experience. So far, I rate him and his team very highly.
