About
Nikolas Hajime
Nikolas H. Kazmers, M.D. M.S.E. is an Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Hand and Microvascular Surgery at the University of Utah Hospital and Clinics. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (Board Certified), and exclusively specializes in hand and upper extremity (elbow / forearm / wrist) problems and microvascular surgery. He treats upper extremity disorders such as fractures, dislocations, lacerations to nerves and tendons, and all other injuries of the hand and arm for adults and children. He also diagnoses and treats all types of arthritis of the hand, fingers, and wrist, as well as carpal tunnel syndrome (carpal tunnel release), cubital tunnel syndrome (decompression), Dupuytren`s disease (collagenase/Xiaflex injection, needle aponeurotomy, surgical fasciectomy), trigger finger, tendinitis, and many other common surgical and non-surgical problems that occur in the fingers, hand, wrist, forearm, and elbow. He is also an expert in peripheral nerve repair and reconstruction, which may involve a combination of nerve transfers, tendon transfers, free functioning muscle flaps, fusions, or other procedures that are common for a hand surgeon. He works out of the University Orthopaedic Center (UOC) in Salt Lake City, Utah, as well as out of the Farmington Health Center (FHC) in Farmington, Utah. For selected smaller procedures, and based on patient preference, he commonly performs "wide-awake" surgery--a streamlined experience that can help decrease the time, expense, anesthesia side-effects, and inconvenience associated with having surgery such as fasting.He has specific interest in complex post-traumatic reconstruction of the upper extremity including bony reconstruction with fibula or medial femoral condyle bone flaps, peripheral nerve reconstruction, vascular disorders involving the hands, as well as an interest in fracture care and injuries to the fingers, hand, wrist, and elbow related to sports and active outdoor pursuits (skiing, snowboarding, mountain biking, etc). He is one of few surgeons in this region of the country to perform medial femoral condyle bone free flaps to treat scaphoid nonunion with avascular necrosis. Dr. Kazmers received his B.S.E. and M.S.E. in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Michigan College of Engineering. He received his medical degree (M.D.) from Northwestern University, Feinberg School of Medicine. He completed orthopaedic surgery residency at Washington University in St. Louis, followed by completion of the hand and microvascular surgery fellowship at the University of Pennsylvania. He is a Diplomate of the American Board of Orthopaedic Surgery (Board Certified).Services
