When it comes to any of the above conditions, our doctors can provide a diagnosis and treatment of common problems. Our doctors work directly with patients to not only ensure a definitive diagnosis, but help them consider if surgical intervention is appropriate for their unique situation. Our doctors can provide traditional surgery or, in many cases, arthroscopic surgeries, which are significantly less invasive and can leave behind far less scarring than conventional methods. Arthroscopic surgeries allow the doctor to perform surgery inside of the foot and ankle through a small 1cm incision in the skin and the use of an arthroscope, which sends images of the inside of the body to a video monitor for the doctor to perform the surgical procedure.
How do I know if I need surgery?
Certain conditions may not require surgery depending on the condition itself and the severity of the condition or injury. More severe issues are commonly addressed with surgery, while mild concerns may be improved with medication, rest, and other alternative solutions. During the diagnosis of foot and ankle problems, our team will discuss with patients the options that are available to them and ensure they are making an educated decision regarding their condition.
