How can I find the most qualified hand / orthopedic surgeon in Brooklyn, NY or in general?

I'm having ulnar nerve transposition surgery in a month for my cubital tunnel syndrome but I want to make sure it is done by the most qualified person.

Have you tried asking the Dr. for a referral? If not look it up in the phone book and then check the Dr. by asking question of how many surgeries has he performed, how many years has he been doing this job...and so on. But your best choice is to ask you own Dr. the one that said you needed surgery, usually they have a list of Drs where they refer patients.
Good Luck^i^
P.S.
if not i know of a good one in Long Island
