Trigger Finger surgery
Expert surgical care for trigger finger from experienced hand surgeons, no general anaesthetic, no hospital stay, home the same day.
Trigger finger surgery at Independent Health Group
It starts small, a bit of stiffness in the morning, a finger that clicks or catches. But over time, trigger finger can make the simplest tasks frustrating. Buttoning a shirt, gripping a handle, even straightening your finger becomes an effort. It's easy to dismiss, but it rarely improves on its own.
Trigger finger release is a quick, straightforward procedure that frees the tendon and restores smooth movement to your hand. At Independent Health Group, we perform it under local anaesthetic in calm, modern clinics, no general anaesthetic, no hospital ward, and you'll be home the same day.
Our hand surgeons have years of experience treating trigger finger, and you'll see the same consultant from your first appointment through to surgery and follow-up. No being passed between teams, no repeating your story, just joined-up care from start to finish.
Through your NHS Right to Choose, you can ask your GP to refer you directly to us at no cost.

Why we choose local anaesthetic first
Unlike most surgical providers who default to general anaesthesia, Independent Health Group specialises in local anaesthetic surgery. This isn’t a compromise, it’s a better approach for the right patients.
Safer
Local anaesthetic significantly reduces the risks associated with general anaesthesia. No grogginess, and fewer complications. Your safety is always our priority.
Faster
Without general anaesthesia, there's no lengthy recovery period. Most patients are home within hours of their procedure and back to normal activities much sooner.
Better value
Our streamlined, efficient process means we can offer competitive pricing for private patients and shorter waiting times for NHS patients. Quality care shouldn't cost more.
Patient safety always comes first. If you’re not suitable for local anaesthetic surgery following your assessment, we’ll ensure you’re supported to access the right care through our trusted partner providers.
