Advanced techniques in foot and ankle surgery. Bone lengthenings, ankle and rearfoot fusions along with advanced trauma techniques. Efforts to advise all options in foot and ankle
care are taken to meet the needs of the patient and strive for the most appropriate surgical plans and operations for the
best outcome with the easiest recovery. Since
you stand and walk and run on your feet, these surgeries are different from most in the orthopedic world. Sometimes the more
aggressive procedures are the more long lasting but a longer recovery is needed. Sometimes a less aggressive, with very little
recovery time procedure fits the patients desires and will achieve a satisfactory outcome. Techniques in surgery involve knowledge, skill and use of hardware.
Hardware used in orthopedic surgery includes, plates, screws (absorbable or non), fixation devices like frames, pins, staples,
special cements and implants.
