He then completed a comprehensive upper extremity fellowship at Triangle Orthopaedic Associates in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina, where, under the tutelage of Dr. William Mallon and Dr. Julian M.

Testimonials:
“Dr. Anand Panchal spent one year at Triangle Orthopaedics in Durham, North Carolina, doing a fellowship in complex shoulder, elbow, and knee surgery. During this time, he assisted successfully, and often was the primary surgeon, on many of the most difficult upper extremity surgeries one could envision. I have no doubt he is fully qualified to handle anything that comes his way in Florida, helping people with difficult, complex upper extremity injuries and allowing them to recover fully.”
