Are you certain this group is in Austin? The Texas Center for Music
and Medicine specializes in musicians' medical problems, but it's
located in Fort Worth:

There's a famous hand surgery center in San Antonio:

Thank you for the links- I am sure there was a group in Austin. Maybe
it's defunct now.

Hello -

If your problem is soreness, tenderness, tendonitis, carpal-tunnel
syndrome, or anything related, I highly recommend checking out a
product called Flextend (flextend.com).  I'm a pianist and frequent
computer user who had carpal-tunnel-like problems in my wrists,
soreness in my hands, forearm and elbow (I wore a splint all the
time).  I could hardly use the computer or piano anymore.  I found
this product on the net after searching for a means of relief. 
Insurance companies can reimburse you for it and they have a guarantee
(which is one of the reasons I tried it).  It's used in rehabilitative
clinics.  It completely (completely) fixed literally everything.  I
have no more pain anywhere.  Check it out.

Willie Nelson lives in Austin, but he had his carpal tunnel surgery at
the Kerlan-Jobe Orthopaedic Clinic in Los Angeles.
