I can't suggest a doctor, but I can suggest a PT/Ergonomist.  

Elaine Lacroix at Hand Rehab. Associates (232-6416).

My Dr. sent me to her "regular PT place,"  they were helpful, but not
very knowledgeable.  My insurance company sent Elaine out for an
ergonomics site visit.  WOW, this lady knows her stuff, she gave me a
list of things to ask my regular PT for and the improvement in my
condition accelerated as a result.

RSI's are what she does, primarily computer related ones. I URGE you to tell
your doctor you want to be referred to her. They may be hesitant since
I think the doctors may get some kind of kickback, but you should insist.

Hope this helps.

Michael.
