Founder of the Fitzmaurice Hand Institute<br />
Double Board Certified Hand Surgeon<br />
When you've suffered a hand or wrist<br />
injury or need immediate care for<br />
persistent joint or nerve pain in your<br />
hands, wrists, or forearms, Hand & Wrist<br />
Urgent Care in <strong>Scottsdale</strong> is a quick and<br />
cost-efficient alternative to the<br />
emergency room.<br />
We provide fast diagnosis and<br />
specialized treatment for injuries to the<br />
fingers, hands, and wrists by one of the<br />
top hand surgeons in the country – Dr.<br />
Michael Fitzmaurice. Our patients are<br />
evaluated as soon as possible and may<br />
receive on-site x-rays or ultrasound for<br />
an effective diagnosis and treatment<br />
plan. If necessary, minimally invasive<br />
surgery can be performed within the<br />
same day to ensure the best possible<br />
outcome.<br />

emergency room. Get the urgent care<br />
you need for the fastest recovery<br />
possible at Hand & Wrist Urgent Care!<br />
We are in the thick of spring and that can<br />
only mean one thing: baseball season!<br />
Everyone is putting on their Arizona<br />
Diamondbacks gear and heading to Chase<br />
Field for a day at the ballpark, myself included.<br />
Whether it’s your excuse to grab a beer<br />
and hot dog (or whatever insanely huge and outrageous food the<br />
stadium came up with this year) or you’re a devoted fan, hoping<br />
the D-backs make it to the playoffs this year, baseball games are<br />
fun outings for the entire family. This month, we talked to Ketel<br />
Marte about the season. The Dominican baseball player shares the<br />
trials and triumphs throughout his life as well as what he’s hoping<br />
for this season and he’s talking about his new position on the<br />
field, on page 46.<br />
Spring cleaning also comes to mind this month (Marie Kondo<br />
fans, anyone?). We’re talking spring cleaning your nutrition to<br />
avoid inflammation on page 36 and spring cleaning your skin care<br />
routine post-winter on page 54.<br />
Have you heard of the new celery juice trend? It’s all the rage,<br />
but who knows if it’s actually healthy for you. We got an expert<br />
to give us some reasons to give it a sip – turn to page 20 for nine<br />
facts that may make you crave the green juice. And speaking of<br />
trends, many people are turning to a veggie-forward, low-carb<br />
diet these days. On page 24, we’re sharing a delicious recipe for<br />
gluten-free zucchini tortillas that you can make in under an hour.<br />
Bon appetite!<br />
Best,<br />
