As in the comics, Strange is left in a messed up state after his car crash and has to turn to an equally skilled surgeon to save his life. He's unable to preserve full hand function after severe nerve damage.

This scene was actually teased by director Scott Derrickson on his Twitter some time ago...

This cover shot comes from Uncanny X-Men's Brandon Peterson's run on Doctor Strange, dealing with his car crash origin that ruins his hands. Clearly that's going to be a big part of the film's opening act.
